    You're probably right Steve, that's the same excuse we heard when black folks were being lynched, folks like you would say "oh well white folks are being lynched too".

    Starbucks is where hipster doofus' hang out, pay $8 for a cup of horrible coffee, and talk about how compassionate and wonderful they are.

    They can't be bugged by the little people while doing this, hence the corporate culture of racism at Starbucks.

    Nice... Nothing creepy about passing a guy to go into the bathroom only to find out he's been waiting on you to walk out.

    Remember those good old signs on the restroom doors "Colored Only" - "Whites Only".

    Obviously, you failed history. No worries, you have the internet, use it if you dare... and just as obviously, I'm not "trying to say" anything. I am making the observation that liberals are the intolerant lunks they've always been, and the Starbucks events are just examples of that. What on earth could be more fun to watch, though, as protected class attacks iconic, revered liberal bastion of elitism..

    What proof do you have that it was this person's race which prevented him from getting the code to the bathroom?

    He didn't pass and going into the bathroom he didn't have a code remember. You met him in the hallway outside the bathroom.

    They were next to the signs that said "Hiring, Irish need not apply" My grandfather lived through those days in this country. My other grandfather escaped the Armenian genocide. It's odd how those things are never discussed.

    So we automatically assume racial bias when it's a toss up between whether it was there or not?

    I've gotten to the point that when I meet liberal folks, I just assume they are racists. I mean, there is such a track record.

    I doubt that Starbucks will be impacted much, I mean, liberals won't tolerate their beacon of coffee distribution to remain under the microscope too long...

    I'm certain that's what you want it to go back to. You sure talk about it enough.

    I remember how liberals were either silent when the knock out game was going full tilt, or asked us to prove how racism was the cause of it. Never mind that those doing the knocking out were posting videos of their knock outs and bragging about them all while saying they were hunting polar bears, none of that seemed to matter.

    If given a choice I'd rather be kept from using the bathroom than being sucker punched and knocked out cold on the street and then have thugs take every possession that I have on me.

    LOL. Starbucks is owned by a Zionist. Therefore, not liberal but right wing.

    Liberal logic: Clinton's email server scandal is old news, let's move on. Slavery and Jim Crow laws happened yesterday.

    Starbucks, Facebook, Amazon...some of the biggest, most financially successful companies in the country are having big problems. Is this good for the country?

    Never mind that much of those reports were discredited.

    Further, note how right wingers remained silent when the truth about police corruption in the Wilding incident took place. Some right wingers still defend the cops as they did with Hitlerian Mark Fuhrman.

    No surprise. ;)

    Fuhrman moved to Idaho: white supremacy world. In Idaho, 89.1% of the population is White American. 0.6% Black or African American. All racists should move there.

    My point is that as an atheist/agnostic libertarian, I love chick filet chicken. I am not really a starbucks fan though.
