About 15 years ago or so I was in a Starbucks in Boston with my young daughter. We purchased food there and we were waiting for the restroom to open. It took forever and everyone in line was wondering why the person inside was taking so long. After quite a long while the door opened and two young men walked out. I was aghast. I didn’t even want to go in there after that.
You’re right, of course, but a psych evaluation, medication, rehab, and job training wouldn’t let them feel so good and smug about themselves as that brain-dead, nonsensical poster.
I was on a business trip to San Diego maybe 20 or 25 years ago and brought the family. We stopped in the lobby of a downtown hotel where there was a single-person restroom off the lobby. I went to use the restroom and heard two guys in there making the most God-awful noises. I hustled the family out of that hotel stat. One of the grossest things I’ve encountered.
A company gets the unions that it deserves. Despite leftist union busters, the employees in the blue core areas are opting for representation to protect them from their elitist overlord.
Plus he French are not noted for brushing their teeth
Kevin Williamson? Oh, is he that real big fat guy?
I think I’m the only who brings his own coffee to work. I really dont get why you have to pay $6 for a “small” size coffee from that overrated place.
Here in L.A. I know ALL those places that closed down. It didnt surprise me one bit. Those locations are ground zero for violent homeless/antifa to do their thing. The only locations that I know of are “safe” are the ones INSIDE GROCERY CHAINS like Target and Vons..
Is this the CEO that allowed workers to spit in policemen drinks?
Allowing someone to use a business’ restroom is somehow supposed to end homelessness?
They got some bad PR for kicking some homeless out of their store a few years ago - so they changed their policy. We see that the change in policy has not paid off.

San Francisco Starbucks about 4 years ago...I was in line of about 20 for coffee. Strange short man in front of me, almost midget size. He kept motioning me to get in front of him and finally I did, guarding my purse. He kept collecting food when we got close. He caused a skirmish right when my coffee was ready. He screamed foul words where children were present and scared. He then ran out of the store with probably $20 worth of food. He went across the street and he and his dog had breakfast on starbucks!!!
We avoid the city, which I loved for two decades, completely now. Cannot even ride BART from Fremont to SF without being threatened by yutes, thugs and druggies just daring you to look at them wrong.
I’ve posted often that all a CEO has to do when pressed by the “woke” is offer a simple statement that “We don’t get involved in politics. We make cars.” (or coffee or sandwiches or whatever).
A good 90 percent of Americans would appreciate a simple statement like that, and the other 10 percent probably weren’t customers to begin with.
I never was a big fan of cities, and I wouldn’t want to even go near them now.
I like my off the beaten path house where we can’t see the neighbors and what we do see are deer, and owls, and hummingbirds, and dragonflies, and the occasional eagle from the nearby river.
Exactly.
I’d give someone like that my business before someone catering to the woke crowd trying to appease them.
Me neither.
Long for the day we hear kids asking their dads; “Dad, what’s a (Muslim, communist, socialist, LGBTQ+, Starbucks)?”
But has he learned anything?
I don’t even buy ground coffee with Starbucks brand.
Why anyone would pay 6 bucks for any coffee drink?
There is also the problem that they recently offered to pay travel expenses for women who needed abortions if their state made abortion illegal.
Businesses never, ever admit that they are being boycotted, since that makes the boycott even bigger as more people now know about it.
I see these closings as camouflage for the harm the boycott by life-loving people has caused them.
Same thing when I was coming into VietNam in'69. A lady squatted and peed with people walking all around her.
A little culture shock for a bumpkin from Louisiana.
