Not to worry - the new Black Lives Matter-supporting DA will seize the Starbucks, auction it off and distribute the proceeds to the men and their families (after a twenty-five percent contribution to BLM, of course).....

Might be wise to have signs up saying that the seating is only for the use of customers.

Set up after seeing the group outside with a sign, instant posing and stories of racial problems from a 90 year old woman. No info on trespassing call or action by multiple police to respond. Guessing someone hating for wearing a MAGA sign, other customers left up with high homeless, or a woman. Time will tell. And Missy Depino give it a break on twitting last Trump. 👍

Yeah it seems very fishy.

That’s what the article implies when it says they were asked several times to leave by the police as well...and that is not inconsistent with the video.


That seems to be in accordance with standard police practices. Seems like a setup.

Despite what they say, lots of White liberals are ascared of Black ppl in real life.

In anycase, when told to order something or leave, they should have complied, no one owes them an apology. The cops asked them to leave and only arrested them after they refused to. Brush the chocolate chips off your shoulders and obey police officers.

Exactly, how long were they taking up limited customer space without actually being customers? For some reason people believe places like Star*ucks and fast food operations are the same as public libraries or parks where they can just park themselves and use the amenities like WiFi and restrooms. It’s PRIVATE PROPERTY stupids!

Of course. The “beautiful people” don’t want “them” anywhere nearby.

But they have ZERO problem with “them” getting foisted on the “unenlightened”; that’s actual part of the plan.

When I moved here, everyone hated Starbucks. “They can’t do it with the love and community _our_ shop offers.” Maybe not. But those shops come and go and Starbucks explodes. They’re everywhere. I’m not a fan of their politics, but I do find myself walking in to buy a coffee and a piece of cake and minding my own business over a book or phone for an hour a couple times a week. And I know I can do that anywhere in the country where there’s a Starbucks.

An alternative to Starbucks I also enjoy is a franchise called Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. It’s the same sort of place. But they don’t advertise their politics. If they even have any. I’m not rooting around to find out.

“Anybody, black or white, who goes to Starbucks ought to be arrested.”

Seems like a good place to get a big settlement. The optics of a big liberal company having 2 black guys arrested without obvious cause is not good.

liberals have declared black people to be special Americans, asking them to follow the same rules (regarding ordering food, trespassing) that are applied to white people is just not fair.

Some are more equal than others -orwell

Although I am happy to watch liberals eat their own. Bon Appetit

That issue was settled. In the 60s via skin color

I love the smell of liberals being hoisted on their own petard.

I just saw on twitter that the CEO is apologizing. It is nice to see the liberals eating their own. They have too many competing special victim groups.

“...lots of White liberals are ascared of Black ppl in real life....”

They’re scared of - and HATE - EVERYTHING that doesn’t immediately agree with or accept their little world of illusion.

Not only that, they were on their cell phones. Maybe the store manager has seen them frequently in the store on cell phones. Maybe he has examined store video and saw something he did not like. Maybe there is more to this than we know about.
