    Good. You package it up and move to the other queue, please. You are standing much too close to my speculation and you're stinking up the place.
    Really disgusting. I mean, just look at that photo and the smirk on that girl's face. Wouldn't you like to punch her out and shove the bullhorn down that jerk's throat? I certainly would. It would be an excellent contribution to society.

    "Pulling yourself" (English) = "beating off" (Whatever that mumbo jumbo is they speak in America).

    Birth certificates are mandatory, tax returns aren't. I never wondered about his birth place until the Clinton Campaign brought it up anyways. None of us did. When her campaign brought it up, people began to question it and he held on to it for almost 4 years. We didn't start the BC thing.

    Yes I would. I wouldn't have stood there and took it though. I would've walked away before they made it inside. Those shitbags around the bullhorn guy watched with glee.

    Heh, they haven't ceased one bit... I heard Stormy Daniels got called out on the uber liberal "The View" yesterday by one of the girls there. She was asked why she never said anything until now and said she presented herself as someone just looking for attention.

    Actually Starbucks has always allowed people to hang out in their shops and use the free wifi and restrooms without buying anything. That's been their business model since the beginning. And the CEO himself flew in to talk to these two guys and the community because he feels the community was treated with utter contempt not his business. Neither the prosecutor or Starbucks feel these guys should of been arrested. It would be interesting to find out why you do.

    There just has to be a way to trip and accidentally hit your forehead on someone's nose or stumble into someone's groin with your knee. Christ, he's got enough ketchup on hand so he can feign an injury ... no problem!
    The real shame is that Donny's fired a few missiles into Syria so he now deserves whatever slander that comes his way.

    First, the presence of 6 officers when there are two suspects prevents escalation rather than causes it.

    And if I were to say that I don’t like these sort of implied insults that remind me of passive-aggressive beta male behavior, you would probably infer that the words were directed at you.

    To hell with all that.

    So if you have something you want to say to me, just say it, ffs.

    Unless you can read the mind of the manager on duty at the time, you are being dishonest. You can want this to be a race issue all you want. That doesn't make it one.

    If anything, its more of a millennial issue. These entitled brats feel that they are owed a table without having to pay for it. Why don't you let them hang out in your house?

    Who is a slave today and why does what happened a long time ago but no longer exists today impact anyone currently alive?

    Waaaaahhhh, slavery.....waaaaaahhhh....victims, liberals see victims everywhere....it's the card liberal victims play when they need to reinforce their victimhood when no logical argument exists.

    I don't know why you're singling me out on this forum and stalking me, but intellectually you are no match for me, it's not even close. You should give up before you get humiliated in front of this entire board.

    I wouldn't be doing much supposin' about me and what about a barber shop where some guy walks in and sits in the barber chair and the barber says sorrying that is for paying customers but he person refuses to get up?

    Yes and the manager was ensuring their customers would have a place to sit and enjoy the products they just purchased, they should have stood by her.

    Oh it certainly could when Starbucks announces they now have open public seating and open public restrooms, nothing sensational about at all.

    Starbucks owns this.

    ON STARBUCKS AND “RACISM:”
    1. Now Starbucks is saying this was all contrary to their policy and, presumably, anyone who wants to sit in their shops and not order anything and use the bathrooms has the right to do so as long as they like.
    2. Starbucks, in other words, has just announced its stores are not stores primarily, but are now privately-funded shelters and bathroom facilities for the homeless. You don’t have to spend a slim dime in the store to sit as long as you please and use the bathrooms.
    3. That’ll be great for Starbucks’ business. Their yuppie ******bag clientele love the homeless in the abstract, but we’ll see how much they appreciate their coffee shops being jammed with them, close-up-like, occupying most tables and chairs.
    4. I don’t even want to defend Starbucks; I want them to have the full taste of Social Justice Warrior progressivism. If this is the company’s ideology, then they should live that ideology to the full.
    Live by Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, die by it as well. I don’t think Starbucks realizes what they’ve let themselves in for after years of left-wing virtue signaling.

    "Eating Their Own,” Starbucks’ management brought much of the ongoing fury on themselves via their own virtue signaling and speaking in SJW pieties:

    Rosalind Brewer, Starbucks COO and a young African-American woman, called the incident a “teachable moment for all of us” and recommended “unconscious-bias” training for every Starbucks staffer. Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson joined ABC’s “Good Morning America” to personally apologize to the men involved in this incident when protesters interrupted his appearance. “A whole lot of racism, a whole lot of crap, Starbucks coffee is anti-black,” they chanted. You can’t blame these demonstrators for noticing that the terms of engagement had broadened significantly.

    It is easy to see why this kind of activism is more satisfying than, say, going on about Chick-Fil-A’s Christian values. Despite a six-year-long liberal campaign dedicated to educating the public on the deliciousness of its products, the benefits and time off afforded its employees, and franchising opportunities in under-served urban markets, this chain just keeps on expanding. Imagine that. Routinely rebuffed assaults on a fortified position are exhausting. They are nowhere near as rewarding as a direct attack on a receptive target that yields a quick and gratifying victory. That explains why social justice activists are increasingly focused on exacting concessions from like minds: young adult novelists, liberal filmmakers, Hollywood executives, painters, restaurateurs, university professors and administrators, socially conscious corporations, and the left-of-center politicians who have folded these activists into their core constituencies.

    These intramural feuds are transforming the progressive movement from within, but it’s not clear that the social-justice movement has secured anything other than the illusion of efficacy.

    By appeasing the mob, Starbucks’ management have walked into a box canyon. Get woke, go broke! It’s going to be fascinating to see what happens next.

    Well, now that we are fighting back and they are getting their asses kicked they are going after their own, who quickly cave and grovel resulting in a quick and gratifying dopamine release. Social justice activists are increasingly focused on exacting concessions from their own, the political wing that has folded these activists into their core constituencies.

    Now they preen and prance about self-righteously declaring ever more doctrinal and behavioral purity. Starbucks bought this, they have no one to blame but themselves.

    Nothing says you have arrived, quite like being subjected to chants of

    “A whole lot of racism,
    a whole lot of crap,
    Starbucks coffee is anti-black,”

    blasted into your face with a bull-horn. I'm sure that guy is rethinking that degree in interpretive dance rather than STEM.

    Can you imagine what happens to the other customers trying to enjoy the morning?

    And Starbucks response was to cave as quickly as possible. That employee likely has the basis of a stress claim. And giving into these folks just inflames them.

    Popcorn!

    How about the teachable moment being for the black community that a private business is not your personal park bench and if you are not going to purchase a product you have no right to take up space paying customers have a right to use and if you are asked to leave then just leave and if the police give you a lawful order obey it and file a complaint later.

    Naw probably more, here is how you get rich with phony claims of racism. Plan to go into a business cause a disruption of the their business or service, refuse to comply with their request to leave their private property so the police have to be called, refuse the lawful orders of the police, get it all on your camera then post it on facebook and then wait for the check to come in.

    I never figured that the heads of a business that makes such great coffee's could be so spineless. And the re education seminars are essentially based on slandering and defaming the characters of thousands of its employees. There is a great sickness in this.

    I just wish blacks would riot world wide so we could end it quickly.
    No offense to decent law abiding blacks that moved far away from the blacks that make your whole race look bad.

    Only whites can 'own' a table it would seems with one white guy sitting at a table for over half an hour without ordering and without being ask and or order to leave in the words of one white lady that was also there.

    Oh and only a white guy can stop by to used a restroom while out jogging by the words of witnesses at the Starbucks.

    But in the end it does not matter as this kind of behaviors is no longer being overlook so businesses can go our of business or begin to treated ever one equally.

    An of course there are more important issues to be address such as the license we had given cops to gun down unarmed men and even children if they happen to be black and the cops get nervous.
