They need to be shut down now!!

I am honestly shocked that I have to write this post as this should never happen anywhere. Last night at Cools in benoni. I was having drinks with a few friends. My one friend went outside to check his car and saw a very big bouncer beating up a young girl. Even if this lady had committed a crime, she does not deserve to be beaten by a man twice her size. What is disgusting is no one was trying to stop him. Since my friend was outside he ran to the girls help and told the bouncer to stop. My friend described the bouncer as being in a rage . He was then assaulted by the bouncer as well. After his beating my friend ran inside to get us to help. When we went outside the bouncer was still attacking this girl. The boys in our group tried to stop him, when his other bouncer friends saw a group of men approaching the raging bouncer they all decided to unjustly join the fight. This led to a very ridiculous group fight. The most disgusting thing is not one person tried to stop it. The manager was not even bothered enough by his bouncers beating innocent people, to come outside. Not only did this raging bouncer hurt a young girl. He then caused a full on fight for no necessary reason hurting most of my friends including myself. I was punched by this man because he hit my friend so hard she fell to the floor and when I stood up to him and told him, how dare he hit a woman like that, he then hit me so hard in the face???? and that is when things got out of hand because who are you to freely smack several woman around. Cools is an establishment I do not visit often. I am honestly afraid of this place as every time we go there there are fights and drama. Not nearly 6 months ago a young man was shot and ****ed on this premises. It is disgusting to me that an establishment that encourages violence, drinking and drugs is still open. I also cannot believe that this bouncer is allowed to act with no law unto himself as if he was God. I do not believe that this is okay and I think everyone should know that Cools is not a safe place for you to visit and this establishment should not be supported but instead shut down. This man hit so many woman last night and I actually cannot believe that it is accepted and condemned, the friends I was with were only sticking up for their woman that were being hit. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO SHUT THEM DOWN ?? as this is not the first time!!! This is an every weekend situation! I want this to be shared far and wide!! MAKES ME SICK TO MY STOMACH ?????
