When the suited security personnel returned, they apologized and said there had been a misunderstanding and the girls behind the counter said our statements were true. During this time, our I.D.'s were returned and we were told we had to wait. We were detained by the Pocola Choctaw Casino Police for almost an hour. While the armed officer stood guard over us, the other security personnel took our I.D.'s to make copies and went to talk to the girls behind the counter.
They forced us to write statements as to what we had said at the counter. They said we had been accused of threatening the girls behind the counter. Then, this armed officer and 2 more security personnel in suits, (with different type badges, one with the same insignia as the tribal police) approached us and demanded to see our I.D.'s. During our meal, we noticed an armed security officer talking with the bus girl in the dining area. He agreed saying that if he had the job he might have to reach across the counter and slap a customer who was being rude. I made the comment to my husband that the girls behind the counter had a hard job. On New Year's Day, 2011 at about 1:15 a.m., my husband and I stood in line for about 20 minutes at the Blue Moon Cafe for the breakfast special.
