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.”

This creature should be thanking its blessings for getting steady work. It will no doubt get employment elsewhere!

Seems like she assaulted him, chasing him from Starbucks, inciting others, etc. Where are some charges? Seems like a federal civil rights investigation is also in order.

And she's married? Wonder what he looks like? A freak as well?

Good she's been fired, her employer didn't need the association.

What is Starbucks doing to protect its patrons?

She was an accountant for the music store which had the sense to get rid of her.

“Anybody in Palo Alto know this freak?” Mankey asked...

Her calling him a freak is like the pot calling the kettle black.

A 46 y/o ‘Lady’ wearing a spiky Mohawk?
Sometimes, the book does match the cover.
No doubt she has a lot more of those piercings and ornaments
dangling from ‘where ever’.

I went into a sandwich shop one day a few years back. The guy behind the counter had so many tattoos and piercings in his face that there was no way I was going to eat something that he prepared. I said, “Nope!” and walked out.

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

She wasn't a SB employee. She worked for the accounting department at Gryphon Stringed Instruments. She posted on social media what she did, and advocated others do the same. I'll bet her company couldn't wait to have an excuse to fire the freak.

And, Laz, THE HAIR man, the hair!
That means she will need to be ‘creative’ instead of laying flat on her back, otherwise it mashes the ‘hawk.

I’m normally not a violent person, but this animal need’s the sh*t beat out of her. I would applaud if someone would do the favor.

Elderly people are sacrosanct, and you take your life into your own hands when you deliberately harm them.

Mankey wrote. “I went back in and yelled after I had changed my mind and wanted him to call the police because I wanted to know his name, where he lived, his wife’s name and where his kids went to school.” Mankey then called the man more names, told him to call police and asked someone else at Starbucks to call the police.

I lived in the Jim Crow South - this is how the worst of the worst of racists acted toward black citizens (because they knew they could get away with it). I don't think liberals know what they've turned into... they ARE the thugs they think they're fighting.
