Does a person have to be dead in order for justice to take place when a homophobic hate crime occurs? Over President’s Day weekend, I went to a nightclub in Las Vegas, Nevada with my cousins. On the evening of February 17th I was brutally assaulted and threatened by the security guards of Marquee Nightclub & Dayclub in The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. This is my account of what happened in its entirety, the police are not helping me, and did not provide me with an official copy of a notarized police report. I do not know what to do and hope that justice can be served through the local news stations to gain awareness. On February 17th between the hours of 11:45 P.M. to 12:15 A.M., Mr. Nguyen was a visiting patron of Marquee nightclub of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr. Nguyen was asked to leave when a Marquee security guard noticed a flask on him. The guard was African American 5’6”, with short curly black hair and a wide forehead. Mr. Nguyen was compliant and attempted to leave Marquee with his cousins, however, the security guard did not allow Mr. Nguyen’s cousins to leave with him. The security guard called for “Elevator 4” to be ready, as well as “backup.” Mr. Nguyen was violently thrown into the elevator with four additional security guards – all were tall, Caucasian males, over 6-feet with shaved heads and beards. As the elevator door closed, Mr. Nguyen yelled for his cousins to call for help and call 911. When the elevator doors closed, Mr. Nguyen was choked and threatened by the security guards. The security guards repeatedly said to Mr. Nguyen “You are a f*g that likes to be choked,” and “I am going to give it to you in the a*s and that you are going to like it.” They also said that Mr. Nguyen wouldn’t remember anything after they were done with him. The guards took turns beating Mr. Nguyen until he became light-headed and lost consciousness. After some time, the same group of guards woke Mr. Nguyen. Mr. Nguyen had been carried to the ground floor of the The Cosmopolitan and his face was covered in blood, Mr. Nguyen had a red ring around his throat from being choked and there was blood on the floor around him. The guards wiped blood off of his face and asked Mr. Nguyen if he remembered anything. The guards asked Mr. Nguyen why he was in the corner of the hotel and said that they would call their paramedics. Mr. Nguyen was fearful of being beaten again, so he communicated that he did not recall anything. The guards took Mr. Nguyen’s identification card and spent approximately 15 minutes writing down all of his information including his current home address. Mr. Nguyen returned to meet his cousins and attempted to file a formal complaint and police report. The Las Vegas PD replied that there was nothing they could do because there is no evidence, even though there were security cameras in the elevator and hotel. The Las Vegas PD officer said that Mr. Nguyen could have been responsible for his own injuries. Please help me by making this story known to the general public. There cannot be injustice like this in the world and no consequences for such hateful acts of violence.

Marquee is the best club in Las Vegas as I write these words on Monday following Labor Day Weekend 2016 and that is not simply my opinion. More than 300,000 tourists came to Las Vegas this Labor Day Weekend 2016. The line for pizza alone outside Marquee was an hour because the nightclub was packed with tourists. Local Las Vegas friends planned a party for their friends birthday Saturday. Every single person, even those who could not make the birthday party agreed, "The party has to be at Marquee!" My friends corporation holds one large event each year in Las Vegas and pick Cosmo because every employee loves Marquee. Lawyers I work with in Union Square San Francisco have their big events at Cosmo because of Marquee. Ladies from Houston, Texas to Southern California, all wish to have their Bachelorette Party in Las Vegas at Marquee. The restaurants inside Cosmo keep getting better. New York Firefighters relocated to Las Vegas search for the best pizza in town and they have picked Secret Pizza outside of Marquee. The former Brooklyn and Manhattan firefighters drive into traffic along the Las Vegas Strip to eat East Coast New York styled pizza by the slice outside of Marquee at the Cosmopolitan. The world is speaking. International tourists are talking about one nightclub with a day pool for swimming in Las Vegas, Nevada, and their advice is centering on Marquee at the best place to visit when hoping for an amazing adventure in Las Vegas, Nevada. The club has many atmospheres with various creative, artists, styles. The music is extraordinary. The views are breathtaking. Photographers become obsessed with every turn of the lens. The security is tight, professional, and tourists know they are surrounded by the best protection. The dealers at the card tables look as if they have just walked off a modeling runway in Milan, Italy. The cocktail waitresses and bartenders are gorgeous. The swimming pool looks crystal. Hot tubs, champagne, penthouse view of Las Vegas Boulevard, all while dancing, swimming and drinking under a full moon in the evening or a hot sun during the day. Finished off Summer Labor Day Weekend at Cosmopolitans Monday Night Movies September 5, 2016 - Featuring Dirty Dancing - All the families enjoyed the movie by the pool while the children had a blast swimming. BBQ, cocktails, towel service, billiards by the hot tub, and then slice of Secret Pizza. Thank you Marquee for putting on this awesome event on the last day of Labor Day Weekend 2016.

Im a fan when it comes down to great music in an awesome atmosphere. Of course, Vegas always has something to offer in a lil city. Great minds think alike when the words of: pool party, vegas, house music, and a combo of inebriated drunkards basking in the sun while sipping on endless amount of booze come into play! Marquee is deemed to be THE spot to pool party. However, I think Encore and WET Republic take the cake. Here are my gripes: Small pool to splash around and sparse accommodations to any of your belongings, yet alone, leave it with a large pile of other peoples belongings. Hence, bottle service gives you a small space to party like a rockstar with your friends and soon-to-be friends and leave your stuff hanging around. The service is baffling!! My friend orders us bottle service and pitchers of more alcohol to go around with our group, but to our own dismay, the little monster shuffling her small frame and fake boobs in our faces was utterly rude! She wanted us to pay first before we got our drinks?! WOW!! My friend paid for everything, called his credit card company to cancel the transaction, voila!, we got our FREE booze in hand!! Boo-yah! The crowd was so-so. Ive seen better eye candy at Encore and WR. A group of guys tried their best to fondle me and my girlfriends thinking I wouldnt say one word. I NEVER take that kind of advantage from ANYBODY! Security was shamefully nonchalant about the incident and scurried off thinking it was no big deal. Really?! After much avoidance and drinking plenty of vodka shots and AMFs, I was dancing like nuts to the filtering sounds of house music! I really want to give this place more than what it should be credited for but I find it disappointing when I receive lack of service from anybody. I enjoyed the hours of incredible music, my awesome set of company, and what was little to be known, an okay venue. Is it worth it to come back again? Depends. If they held any of my favorite house DJs, Ill be back or someone holds their birthday/bachelorette party here.
