Confrontation at Starbucks over ‘MAGA’ hat erupts (Palo Alto CA)
The Palo Alto Daily Post ^ | April 3, 2019 | ALLISON LEVITSKY

Posted on 04/04/2019 9:07:44 AM PDT by Navy Patriot

A south Palo Alto activist has been fired from her accounting job at Gryphon Stringed Instruments after chasing a man wearing a Make America Great Again cap out of Starbucks and then posting about the confrontation on Facebook.

Rebecca Parker Mankey, 46, was fired on Tuesday (April 2), the day after she yelled at a man with a bushy gray beard named Victor who regularly visits the Starbucks at 361 California Ave. in Palo Alto wearing a red MAGA hat. Mankey didn’t return the Post’s requests for comment.

“Anybody in Palo Alto know this freak?” Mankey asked in a widely shared Facebook post that included two photos of the man at Starbucks. “He will never forget me and will think seriously about wearing that hat in my town ever again. If you see him in this hat, please confront him.”

Liberal Progressives, the champions of Free Speech, unless it is speech they don’t agree with.

Not to worry. This thing will have no trouble finding a job. Some equally insane creature from the deep will give it a job based on kinship in insanity.

She deserved to be fired.

As a Starbucks employee she was there to serve customers, not to attack them Good riddance.

Amen. And by her picture, she should never call another human being a freak...unless she is looking in a mirror. Who, and for what purpose, would anyone hire someone who appears as she does?

She was an accountant for a local company, this happened in a Starbucks.

Gryphon Stringed Instruments fired her rather quickly (they are, by the way, a really good little music store).

“Anybody in Palo Alto know this freak?”

Up is down. Black is white. Wrong is right. And freaks accuse normal people of being freaks. Where the hell did we go wrong, America? Fix that and it will indeed Make America Great Again.

Oops — didn’t look carefully enough. She did not work at Starbucks. But it is still good that she was fired. No company should want employees who are going around attacking people.

I’m glad she got fired. She should be in Prison.

Oops, hit ‘post’ too soon- a good, quirky little music store that I’ve known about for years. Yeah, i don’t care for some of what her boss SAID, but he did the right thing and fired her; actions speak louder than words.
