"No Cops Allowed" Coffeehouse in Lynn MA Closing
Turtleboy Sports ^ | 10/19/17 | Turtleboy

Posted on 10/19/2017 8:21:48 AM PDT by raccoonradio

Update on the Lynn coffeeshop whose manager vowed to never host “coffee with a cop” because cops are murderers who shouldn’t be “humanized,” only to be fired by her own mother for destroying the business…….

Source: Less than a week after controversial comments about police from the daughter of a Central Square coffee shop owner went viral, the one-year-old shop is closing.

“I’ve lost my business and I’ve lost my daughter … I don’t know how this story just keeps building, but I need people to leave me alone,” said Kato Mele, owner of the White Rose Coffeehouse. “I’m closing my business so I can stop being harassed.”

Karma can be so ruthless. Sometimes it takes no prisoners.

Was there a year ago to see a cellist.Good food etc but manager is a moonbat who as it turns out hates cop. (A rival coffeehouse nearby has no problem hosting “coffee with a cop”.Place is owned by her mom who “fired” her afterwards.A lot of controversy about this, even in deep blue
Massachusetts.

Well - actions do have consequences. I feel bad for the mom, but she didn’t make the best choice hiring her daughter as a manager.

LMAO! Karma!

Did the owner dispel, or refute, her daughter's comments? Karma, baby!

Let this be another lesson to liberals that freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences.

Furthermore, let this be a reminder of what pushback looks like. Liberals were getting too comfortable thinking that only they could go to a business they didn't like and shut it down.

Let them keep playing that game, but let the true numbers decide who wins and who loses.

Glad to see I’m not the only Masshole who follows Turtleboy. Great site.

And yeah, the moonbat is her daughter, not the owner from what I understood.

This is the way it should work. Keep the government out of it and let the consumers decide.

And this should be applied to bakeries refusing to bake cakes for same sex weddings. If it’s a bad decision, they’ll go out of business. ;-)

The mom’s apology to the police.
The daughter apologized to her mom.

She did not apologize to police.

Too may parents have spent too much money trying to help worthless kids.
I've seen it way too often.

The downstream effects of Trump Derangement Syndrome Is identical to the effects on family as if it were last stages of alcoholism.
