Besides how is Starbucks suppose to pay for that "free" internet if one does not buy that overpriced dishwater they call coffee.
These two should have bought a small cup of regular coffee and problem would have been solved.
We should flood the stores, bring in our own coffee and hang out. Seems like they are ok with that.
But, then they wouldn't be famous. Or aggrieved.
but that’s what Starbucks is, a place to loiter, LOL
Yeah, they should have purchased or left. But ...911? They should have called the non-emergency number instead.
I think they only thing they did “wrong” was not observe black privilege.
Like the cows in India.
I don’t know details but if people loiter and refuse to leave then next step is to call the police
Facts don’t matter to the Racial Grievance Committees.
Just as the actual facts about Trayvon, the Gentle Giant and Fast Freddie didn’t matter.
The template has been set, and by gum, they’re going to stand by it.
Virtually EVERYTHING about the BLM movement is based on lies. And the black community eats it up.
Loitering IS a crime.
They were justified in throwing them out of the store.
‘Hi, I have two gentlemen at my cafe that are refusing to make a purchase or leave. I’m at the Starbucks at 18th and Spruce,’
Notice how she used the term ‘gentlemen’, my gosh! Such blatant racism! It’s a micro-aggression, or maybe mini-aggression, or maybe a semi-smallish aggression?
I hope the above sentence was clear. Thanks
I’m stunned that there is more to the story than we are being told by the drive by media!!!
Same reason why many public libraries are starting to have hours to keep people away.
Certain groups can not be asked to leave.
Years ago, I was head of Security for a large chain store. I noticed a black guy and someone who was obviously his black mentor, enter the front of the store. The mentor looked around and pointed to spot where the kid walked over to, assumed a military “Attention Stance”. He wasn’t doing anything but making a jackwagon of himself. The manager and Ass. Mgr. (not a typo) asked will you throw him out/ call the cops? I said “Why? He ain’t doing anything but making an ass of himself. Do you want a lawsuit?” I let him stand there, very obvious to every customer, who laughed at him. His mentor and seven kids were sitting in the parking lot waiting for me to do something they could get ‘reparations’ for. I sent one of the cashiers out to them with coffee. As we got closer to closing time (2 hours later)I walked to the Community Organizer and let him know once everyone got out of the store I’d have the little tool arrested. He got out of the van, called the kid off and as he walked past me, the mentor mumbled “Fork you, honky.”
1. I would not use 9-1-1 to call about a pair of losers loitering. That number is for emergencies. I would call the non-emergency number to have these deadbeats removed.
2. These losers should have left immediately as soon as the manager asked them to leave, and they should have left immediately as soon as the police asked them to leave. Private property means something, and they brought the arrest on themselves (I assume that was the plan).
This is out of the Jesse Jackson playbook. Blacks have been doing this for years. Go into a business (large chains preferably with large amount of cash), create a scene, claim racism, shake down the owners for large donations. Jesse Jackson and others made a substantial living, and their children, for years doing this shake down.
Starbucks thought they were immune but just haven’t been free enough with the cash. They will have to give many Starbucks franchises to people of color, who will then run them into the ground, ruin the Starbucks brand and, well another big company with big ideas down the tube.
Remember all those lawsuits against Microsoft and then we had MSNBC and all that liberal drivel, Same thing with Denny’s restaurants.
But the liberals can go in there with their laptops, buy one cup of that (awful) coffee, and sit, literally for hours, while they surf the net.
SB has opened a big, BIG, can of worms...this incident might just lead to their demise.
We’ll see if the “compassionate” libs still do business with them, if BLM doesn’t burn them down before then. Take away their libs, and business will be very slim.
