    Doesn't touch the racist His-Story of the right though.

    You think Mayberry from Andy Griffin is real, so what's the problem.

    Let me guess, you're trying for the weakest response of the month. You have my vote.

    A) He could have taken a leak before he left home. B) He could have bought a cup of overpriced coffee. Fixed it for you

    This is a great article. Sometimes managers of restaurants/stores/etc can simply be jerks. That doesn't make them klansmen.

    So white guy comes in and tells the cashier he'll buy a coffee, but he needs to go the restroom first. Gets code. Comes out. Is accosted by our lunatic friend who's literally waiting and filming the bathroom door. White guy heads straight to the cash register to buy his coffee. Gets followed by the black guy, who's still asking questions and making him uncomfortable. Cashier looks done, definitely has seen this loon before. Loon gets told to leave. Muh racism

    The policy is to buy something first to use the bathroom. Perhaps you missed that part?

    I missed that part - because you're wrong. That isn't the policy. That doesn't even make sense if you think about it. You'd have to either bring the coffee into the bathroom with you (gross) or just leave it out there (gross). I suppose you could order, then go, then pick up your order....

    Ok, it could of have been poorly managed. I see plenty of businesses that thrive in bad sections of town.

    I stopped there often and it appeared to be run like any other Starbucks. Franchise location no doubt. Could very well be poorly managed money wise.

    lol - too bad your memory is so foggy or you would have remembered this historical gem from Einstein where he calls the Zionist party "a political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to the Nazi and Fascist parties. It was formed out of the membership and following of the former Irgun Zvai Leumi, a terrorist, right-wing, chauvinist organization in Palestine." :

    That statement came after he confronted her on the white customer being given the code and he hadn't purchased anything.

    I used to eat at Chick-Fil-A, but I have not sense they became political, never wise for a business to become political, this country is almost 50\50 in parties, best just not to go there - I also will not shop at Hobby Lobby for same reasons
