"The recent decision by the leaders of the Seneca Niagara Casino and Hotel to ban state Sen. Mark Grisanti and his wife, Maria, from the premises, after a recent incident at the casino, seems childish and petty.
The whole ugly incident — which occurred in the bar area and which resulted in video of someone slamming the senator’s wife’s head on the floor — should have been left to rest.
Police officials decided not to press charges in the case, but to add insult to injury, the Seneca banned Grisanti for three years and his wife for one year from all Seneca properties."
