Stick with me, it gets better.
At a bar the other night my sister and I were asked to leave. We weren't drunk or hostile, but they feared a fight would break out. My sister was trying to talk to the bouncer about it, but he simply told her that if she said another word he would have her arrested. I told him that wouldn't happen because we hadn't done anything wrong. He told me to leave as well and said I'd be arrested too. I was leaving, very calmly, I danced my way across the dance floor and right before the doors I turned to see if my sister was still inside. I didn't stop or walk back into the bar, simply turned. At this point the bouncer, who had followed me, grabbed me by the throat strongly with both hands and threw me forcefully from the bar onto the ground. I called the police and filed a report, but nothing has been done. The man's story is that I turned so abruptly that he thought I was going to hit him. There were at least 15 people who saw. My instincts tell me that his use of force is illegal, but I was wondering what the actual laws are and if I actually have a case against either the bar or the individual. Any help is great. Thank you.
I don't know if this is the right forum for this, if it isn't please direct me to the proper one.
