Remember when Starbucks jump on every social justice issue?

They were reward by incessant attacks from liberals for not doing enough. They were even set-up for racial confrontations.

For the last couple years Starbucks has tried to be less publicly 'woke' because no matter what they said or did it only put a bigger target on their back.

Now Starbucks is trying to remain neutral by banning BLM attire.

They just put another target on their back.

Starbucks bans employees from wearing anything in support of Black Lives Matter

So Starbucks is making its employees work naked in order to show support of "Black Lives Matter"? That's going a bit far, isn't it?

They should ban them from wearing anything political, or engaging in any political discussions. They are there to sell coffee, not piss off half their potential customers.

All businesses would be well advised to follow this policy.

Lots of open support for sodomy. Don’t order anything that looks milky.

The crazy left has made it very clear—if you are neutral or silent you are a racist.

I will predict that Starbucks will cave to the pressure.

It wouldn’t surprise me if they required every employee to kneel before each shift. :-(

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Starbucks location where the number of black customers exceeded the number of black employees.

I saw that unartful headline and pictured all nude barristas in Starbucks. . . Ugly thought.
