If the they were singled out, there is a problem.

Its not uncommon to see "shower before swimming" signs posted at public or hotel pools. Our local city pool has one posted

but has anyone here ever been asked if they showered unless there's a person checking everyone going into the pool area?

We had the pool shut down for contamination a few years ago and since enforcement has been tightened up.

The article stated the guy did not work for the hotel, nor was he a health inspector. He lied about that. He also didn't ask anyone else in the pool about showering (the rest were white).

to put up with that harassment on thier property . Phone vid helps prove its happening though

Someone recorded part of the confrontation when a hotel employee tried to settle the problem. Here's a video of the news report on Youtube:

but the daughter will remember.
Like the woman said no progress and kids experiencing the same things as the 60s just a new generation of haters
Oh and a software engineer at a Westin now how's that economic equality conquers any racism thingy work again ?

Anyone who thinks economic equality fixes racism isn't paying attention at all.

The guy was a fool.

anyone here would comment about supposed health department procedures without learning more about this incident. I hope the hotel identifies and blacklists this despicable harasser.

I have been told several times over the years though, in fairness, not so often since I have advanced toward retirement. I was told at community pools and at a motel pool. Seemed to be more an issue when the was young. My appearance is quite caucasian. So, maybe a power issue as much as it is racial, though each time I was told it was “the rule” as justification.

It won't be pretty. It won't be comfortable. You'll probably feel you're making an ass of yourself. But we gotta do it.
