Best idea since #askhamas

It seems like some black folks have a burning need to scold white people.

Does Starbucks have any coffee where you have to say Whipped ?

[DonaldC]

I firmly believe that white people have moved on since the 50s and race is not a problem. I can’t speak for any other ethnicity.

[Genoa]

Do I have to say “straight” instead of “black”? Or is that homophobic? Maybe “unsugared and uncreamed”?

[ryan71]

This will end with Starbucks being sued by a minority claiming to have been racially offended. Well, the actual ending will be myself, laughing.

Knew a white family from South African. Family line dated back well over a 100yrs. They emigrated to the US. Self-identified as “African-American,” because, well, because they were.

When their daughter first selected that ethnic identifier on a school form, the teachers told her “no, you are not.” Daughter resisted and was sent to Vice Principal’s office where she refused his direction. . .parents called and they set the school straight, there were born and raised in South Africa, they were now American citizens and therefore, were now African-Americans.

They won that battle.

I am itching to go into SB to discuss the rebel flag or affirmative action.

If I were an employee, and Schwartz ordered me to do this, I would look him in the eye, and ask him why he doesn’t hire black people?

He doesn’t.

POS hypocrite.

[PATRIOT1876]

Ask the Starbuckers who should pay the property owners reparations for their $250 million loss because of the racist thug who started all this violence when he robbed a convenience store and then came after a cop in a violent fashion.

The thug's family?
Eric Holder?
Al Sharpton?
The dimwit's in the media hungry for a race war?

Ask political questions back if the Starbuck folk pester you about race.

I would begin a discussion about the Global Warming Scam if they want to talk politics.

A very good answer posted here yesterday was:

“They have a better deal down at the mission. You get a free cup of coffee after you listen to their sermon.”

My story on race.

I made a good living selling computer equipment in the late 80’s and early 90’s in a call center at an early superstore.

One of my biggest customers was an AA district south of Dallas.

I finally met a coach and tech director in ‘92. Found out that they all thought I was black. To them I look fairly white.

Sales died out within a week.

I am as mixed race as any mongrel in the pound, but just wasn't the “correct” race.

This obsession on race is damaging to the United States. Obozo has set us back 20 years, minimum.

[webheart]

I hate NPR. I won’t listen to them. They should not be allowed to take taxpayer money to push that boring liberal crap day after day.

[Grateful2God]

Tons of caffeine, sugar, and mandatory discussion of race: throw in the Ramen noodle/bottle rocket guy and you have a recipe for disaster! 🍩☕🔥😨

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

The left moves as a choreographed ballet and Starbucks is definitely owned and operated by a leftist. I think the current movement sweeping the left is fear of a counter revolution. As a result of such fear they are pulling out all the propaganda stops. I hope rage on the American side is growing though I doubt its efficacy due to lack of organization and lack of moral fiber. There may be enough strength left./p>

Imagine you are in a long line at Starbucks just waiting for your coffee while someone at the head of the line is having an existential discussion on race with the barista. My reaction would be to walk out the door and get my coffee elsewhere. Perhaps other coffee places should advertise that there will be no racial discussions and employees just serve your coffee.

[Dr. Thorne]

I have very white skin, but I identify as black, much like transexuals identify as the opposite of what their genitals would indicate.

I demand affirmative action set-asides based on my identifying as black. Yo.

[bestintxas]

I will never visit a Starbucks but if someone asked me about race I would ask them “ Why does over 90% of blacks vote for Obama? Isn’t that racist?”

[headless_thompson_gunner]

It’s already awkward enough being served coffee from someone with a nail driven through their nasal septum and rocking holes in the ear-lobes the size of nickels. Now, I have to discuss how I’m somehow to blame for the 77% out-of-wedlock birthrates in the black community?
