San Francisco Restaurant Apologizes After Refusing To Serve Armed Cops In Uniform

I do understand the employees' position. San Francisco is a home to many protests and now of course all the retail theft. They might have thought the officers might could attract anti-police demonstrations:

 

Careful, the usual suspects could “report” this and have it thrown under an “opinion” piece.

 

"co-owner Rachel Sillcocks asked for understanding in part because the eatery is a haven for queer and BIPOC individuals."

This is so predictably obnoxious, that it doesn't deserve a full response.

 

So they're against discrimination?

 

The LGBTQ have pride marches, and with it they have banned the cops from being part in them pride marches for some years now. The police chief apologized for it's endlessly violent approach of the LGTBQ community in 2019. Maybe you think you can go from 2019 and a sorry for the violence decade after decade, to a it's all water under the bridge 2 years later. But it doesn't usually work like that.

 

You don’t get to uninvited the police from the public. I have no idea why you spend so much time posting obvious fabrications, it’s every thread with you.

 

Well, this being Frisco - I'd say he's wrong there. It's no biggie, though. Just have the police, their families and friends stop patronizing Hildy's and Jesse's. Oh, and any time Hildy and Jesse call the cops - oh, I'm sure they'd take their time. Don't wanna upset the clientele with their mean ol' guns and all.

Blithering idiots. Do they really think the cops can just take their belts off and leave 'em in the car - especially in Frisco where they'd get broken into and taken like artillery in Afghanistan? Heck, I was at The Habit last night - I think it's a West-Coast burger chain but maybe it's nationwide, I dunno - and the place was swarming with cops eating there. Never felt safer. Man, I'd WANT any place I shopped at crawling with police officers patronizing the establishments I go to.

 

They retracted because their Yelp review promptly went to one star and then comments were locked. And yes they issued an apology, but, they did not invite the officers to return.

 

They banned the gay police from the pride parade.

 

Y'know, I've never understood why some places refuse to serve people they disagree with on some level or another. If I were running some shop or another and some obviously waaay far left whackadoodle came in, I'd take their money just as easily as if some waaaay far right whackadoodle came in too. Because I wouldn't care if you're red state or blue state; I just care about the state of your foldin' green!

 

In the 60s they had a saying. If you don't like cops, when you need help call a hippie. There are not too many hippies around today, so I guess liberals that need help in modern times should call Antifa or BLM.

 

They want to virtue signal. Problem for them is their failure to read the room. SF's high end merchants are normally in full festive holiday swing, smiling crowds listening to Christmas carols, wishing each other seasons greetings and freely spending.

Not this year with the smash and grabs. You get out of your car to shop, you find the store's smashed windows are boarded up and as you return to your car doding the bum squats and needles, you find your car windows smashed in and anything in sight stolen out of your car.

They are getting a first hand taste of life without law enforcements and its NOT what the riot supporting Leftists claimed it would be. It's awful, it's driving down property values and folks dumped everything into those homes and businesses. Just about any shack in SF was bringing a $Million. And into this climate, they brought last month's virtue signal, and very quickly found out that minds have changed.

Their idiot DA who was raised by the Weather Underground after his terrorist father went to prison, is suddenly trying to become pro law enforcement now that he is being recalled, but, it's too late. Everyone knows who he is, and everyone knows who the Democrat leaders were backing during the riots last summer.

CRIME? WHAT CRIME?

"Democrats have painted themselves into a corner on the number one issue of the day, crime. They tolerated and in many cases glorified the George Floyd riots as legitimate protests against oppression. They sympathized with criminals rather than law enforcement, arguing that America doesn’t have a crime problem, it has a law enforcement problem."

So Alexandria Conquistador Donkey-Chompers "tried the novel approach of denying the reality of the crime wave that has engulfed America:"

Yeah, well, wake up and smell the coffee.

Alexandria Conquistador Donkey-Chompers, "New York Democrat, said retailers could be fabricating the rash of smash-and-grab burglaries and “flash mob” shoplifting sprees."

Oh yeah, go with that, idiots. Does she have any idea how traumatized the retail employees are at these stores that are getting hit with waves of looting mobs? Now this Democrat clown is going to claim they are "fabricating" it and that the live security footage is staged like her fake crying at the border over "Children in Cages"?

​

Let Sniffy Joe Comfort you:

​

NARRATORS VOICE: She isn't.

Democrats are completely out of step with The Electorate "on crime and public safety."

"No doubt leaders of the Democrat Party are anxiously trying to figure out how they should deal with political fallout over the whirlwind of crime they have unleashed. Denying its existence seems like one of their less promising strategies. But, to be fair, it is not easy to see what more plausible line they can take."

They never offer solutions to the things they completely screw up.

1. First they deny the problem,
2. Then they deny their role in causing it, even though it's still fresh in everyone's mind.
3. Then they try to blame shift and "message"
4. They never propose a workable solution

I don't buy this restaurant's apology because it did not include an invitation to return, and unless someone wants to eat a lot spit in their food, you don't frequent eating establishments that make it clear they have othered you and don't want you there. But, they also don't want a 1 star Yelp and Google rating, so, "the apology" without the invitation.

 

There are those who have bought into lies, that the police have been violent with the alphabet community. For this reason, they hate cops.

Thats part of why they refused to serve the officer. They have been fooled.

Hell, alot of communities have been fooled into believing officers have mistreated them and not their own actions.

 

I - think your post is the most powerful one I've read here in a very long time.

I don't see how the Dems can backtrack on their support of violent acts and/or their proponents. I don't see how they can suddenly say "REfund the Police!" without enraging their supporters. I don't see how they can look even vaguely law and order in a time when law and order is of importance to the hoi polloi.

I think the Dems are kinda screwed this cycle and its all their fault.

How ironic someone with those views is named Sillcocks.

Maybe on some days she identifies as Sillc*nts,

 

Seems perfectly reasonably that you can't be having victims of that police brutality being happy and all of that marching in a parade along with the institute who did it and only recently regretted what they did.

 

Just fire those employees.

 

Sad that in America, police trigger people eating at a restaurant.

 

Yeah well. The police themselves got triggered by seeing LGBTQ people, and got a nice history how they abused their power against them. Hence they aint welcome. The chief of police apologized in 2019. But you can't expect that it's now all water under the bridge after 1 little apology.

Interesting account. I know nothing about it. Thanks.

I was just observing from an eagle eye perspective.

 

The chief of police apologized for the police brutality that was going on for decades on end against the entire LGBTQ community in 2019. It's not just about that restaurant. And that guy can say all he wants, but the confidence is gone while the people who did that police brutality undoubtingly faced little to no consequences and probably are still on the force.

 

There probably needs to be some kind of protocol between the police and the restaurant industry as to what the police can bring into a restaurant when they want to eat:

 

If you are interested in the history there I’d recommend reading up on the Stonewall riots and the inciting events.

Here’s a link:

The difference is that the police give their money to the restaurants and coffee shops that help them stay in business. The LGBTQ don't give anything to the police to help them stay in business. In fact, the only thing that they can give the police is their support or lack thereof. When the former is given, you have happy customers that feel safe to spend their money in your establishment. You can see what happens when the latter is given.

 

Are you saying members of the LGBT community don’t contribute to the city budget?
