Williamsburg hipster haven Union Pool has more problems than the usual 12-hour bathroom wait.

One of the bouncers has been accused of “gaybashing,” after he allegedly put a young gentleman nicknamed “Charlie the Gaysian” in a headlock after he complained about the early closing (3:15) of the back room at UP. Apparently there was the Milksopp Gay Pride dance party going on, and there was still a ton of meth to snort (i kid!). Charlie was punched repeatedly, but is doing okay.

The real question is, did the bouncer fight Charlie because he knew that he was in attendance of the gay pride party, or because he was complaining about leaving? If the bouncer decided to single out someone that simply “looked gay,” wouldn’t he then also have to administer dropkicks and Indian burns to every handlebar mustached, neon Zubaz-wearing, 98 pound hipster in the joint just to make sure? The world may never know…
