I was sitting at a bar in LV the other day. A black bartender came towards me and had a bottle of Kahlua in hand. At that point, I had planned on ordering a seven and seven, but when I saw the Kahlua I wanted a black Russian. The black bartender had put down the bottle before asking me what I wanted, and telling I just decided I wanted a black Russian when I saw him, wanted to know what made me order that. I told him it was the Kahlua, but it was obvious he thought it was because he was black.

I hadn’t been to a Starbucks in 6-7 years, but I decided to go tonight and see what this was all about. The 2 cups of mocha that I got for my wife and myself didn’t have any reference to any of this. Participation must be optional or something

Kinds of like saying the best way to heal a wound is to keep scratching at it and picking off the scab.

Once again, who the effing f wants to discuss serious political issues while standing in line for overpriced coffee? Anyone? And why the hell would the employees want to either? How does their union feel about this extra work? Van Jones is a real idiot to defend this silly nonsense.

RE:”

We should pay LOTS more for our drinks at SBs because of their commitment to civil rights with this print on their cup.
“RACE TOGETHER”
Remember John Lewis at Selma and Michael Brown in Ferguson, two civil rights heroes who freed us all from slavery.

"systematic racism,"
I'm a little fuzzy on what that term means.
Did he mean "systemic"?
I thought systematic meant planned, then carried out.

Poor Van is dumber than a Box of Barbara Boxers.
He obviously doesn’t have a grasp of the English Language, much like Al Sharpton. It’s all show.
He has that cool Black Dude look going for him like that Black Studies Professor who haunts Fox News.
My goodness, how do people take these Morons seriously?

I’ve been to Starbucks twice. I’d been told they sell coffee, but it wasn’t on their menu board.

To me, Starbucks “coffee” is over hyped, over priced and irrelevant. I could care less what they do.
