Clay’s not here for just declaring the Hideaway a nuisance and calling it a day. As a former Jackson club owner who never had a shooting inside his spot because he spent more on security than rent, he lays out the actual fix for these scandalous promoters: make them get a promoter license, put up a cash bond based on the building’s occupancy, prove special-event insurance, and hire real law enforcement (or retired LE) who will actually enforce the count and check for guns. No bond, no license, no party. If something goes sideways, they lose the bond and the license until they’re cleared. If they can’t afford to put skin in the game, they don’t need to be throwing events. Personal accountability over empty press conferences.
