01.01.2022 I have never been so disgusted and mad in my life. Today at JB HiFi Mt Ommaney, when my dad and my brother (who has Down's syndrome) entered the store the secur...ity guard immediately stepped in front of my brother and said that he wasn't allowed in the store. My dad, confused, asked "Why not?" and the security guard said that he had my brother's photo and he wasn't allowed in. My dad asked to see the manager and while he is being called, the security guard goes through his phone to find a photo of the young man that they think is my brother. When my dad and the manager are shown a photo of a white male who also had Down's syndrome, my dad says it's clearly not James, who has olive skin, and the manager replied "well they look the same". Despite the evidence that my brother had been mistaken for another young man, the manager still refused to let him in. By this stage James, the sweetest boy who is still in love with The Wiggles and Ben 10, was visibly upset at what was happening and my dad took him home. Mum called up the manager of the store, demanding that he apologize to her son, to which he replied that "he would never, ever, ever get an apology" from him and that he had "the right to stop anyone he pleased from entering the store". Please, if you are also disgusted by the discrimination shown to James, share this and take a stand against bullying and ignorance. EDIT 29/10/18: Sorry if this notifies everyone but since this is still getting comments and shares 3 years on Im updating this to reflect the outcome. We got a lot of media coverage when this happened and as a result of that, my brother and Dad received an apology from the manager of the store and the CEO. The security guard worked for a different company and we never had any contact with him, but he was doing his job according to JB HiFi procedures. Despite several commenters indicating otherwise, neither the manager or the security guard were sacked/demoted/punished in any way or form. I have no idea if JB has updated their policies/procedures in regards to how they store information about banned customers and I dont know if the same manager is at the Mt Ommaney branch but regardless, I dont condone any harassment or abuse of him or any other JB staff. Most importantly (well, for me) James is still his happy, cheeky self. Hes a ray of sunshine in our lives and if anyone else tries to take that away from him, Ill happily go to war, again. Thats what family is for. Love and light to you all. Victoria
