    Obviously, some people live in a bubble and believe the false narratives of living in a "post-racial" society.

    Now that I think about, you are actually right. Some fools are now talking about "BLACK PRIVILEGE". That is a pile of nonsense. I feel sorry for Starbucks but the civil rights movement was started for the purpose of holding government accountable for the illegal injustices against black people in America. A lot of violence was committed on both sides but whites have NEVER felt the fear and torment of their children being strung up by vigilantes whose only motivation was racial hatred.

    Martin Luther King accomplished much in bringing America closer to its' self-proclaimed righteousness .... but it ended abruptly and over the now decades seems to be moving backwards. "BLACK PRIVILEGE"? My azz! Only idiots believe that. You need to break eggs to make an omelette and racial equality is beginning to starve. Sorry Starbucks (and that poor fellow facing the bullhorn), but the people have to start somewhere. Maybe they think you can afford it more than Gangnam's Korean Take-Away.

    Philly is predominately black, if there was a problem in Philly, youd have heard about it now, other than the crime rates.

    BULL SHYTE, white republicans in the south had to worry about democrat KKK memebers just as much as blacks. And not all blacks have to "worry" either, no racial group is a monolith and its sad that you see all blacks as the same. You know why these men weren't beaten or shot, cause they didn't fight the cops when the cuffs were being put on. You know why they were arrested, cause they didn't listen to a LAWFUL order to leave the premises.

    So laws FOR blacks isn't oppression? Believing blacks don't have to follow the same rules as whites isn't racist? You lefties are the epitome of racist through low expectations for blacks and browns.

    'Republicans'? I think you are posting in the wrong thread. When you get stung by a wasp you don't care what nest it came from.
    Gosh, you're just wrong. They were arrested for trespassing .... but they weren't trespassing and the law said to. Put in another quarter and try again.
    Why are calling me a "lefty"?

    Democrats created the KKK to oppress blacks and any republicans trying to help them out to become equal in society.

    They were asked to leave by the manager before the cops were called. They were asked to leave by the cops. Until they ignored both REQUESTS did they get arrested since that was the next step. Yes, it was for trespassing, but they wouldn't have been arrested or fined if they didn't progress the situation to that level by not listening to a LAWFUL order from the police. Even the store owner wasn't going to press charges, all they had to do was leave or buy something.

    Walks and talks and swims like a duck...

    You do realize that about one third of the folks lynched between 1865 and 1968 were White.....right❓Most of whom, both black and White, had committed heinous crimes. 'To Kill a Mockingbird' was a work of fiction...........

    What's your point? The US also created Al Qaeda and ISIS.
    They were falsely accused so they didn't have to leave. You know as well as I that the charges were dropped and Starbucks admitted they were wrong. What more proof do you need?
    What do ducks have to do with it? I don't even think they have any political interests. So ..... why do you call me "lefty"? The answer is that you have no idea. Am I right?

    The point was that you were wrong about saying "whites never had to worry about their kids..."

    Falsely accused of what? Not purchasing something was pretty evident. That was why they were asked to leave since they were just loitering and taking up tables at a private business establishment which has every right to ask people to leave if they aren't a patron.

    Blacks were being lynched "for being black". How many whites do you reckon were lynched "for being white"? Just a ballpark figure will do fine.
    So was "The Green Berets", "Blackhawk Down", "The Alamo", "Gone with the Wind", "The Red Badge of Courage", "Birth of a Nation", and "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm".

    Seems obvious enough that the KKK and people like that are all part of the far right and that's much closer to the Republicans than the Democrats.... today. Dunno why you think its relevant to mention something that happened 150 years ago when the cards are shuffled totally different today on this topic.
    The cops arrested them. But they were let go because they could not file charges. Hence it was a bogus arrest.

    And the manager together with the ENTIRE company is grovelling with excuses all over the place that they were in the wrong.

    Again... you bring up the past as if it's relevant, while the cards are shuffled totally different today. And you act like it's not the case and create fake news.

    So you are saying that white families were worried about their children being lynched just because they were white? Ho-boy! Forty-nine ain't gonna' do it. You need fifty-two for a full deck, my friend.
    "Not purchasing something" isn't a crime. Neither is sitting on a chair.
    Absolutely. But those guys also had every right to remain where they were. So far .... no crime committed by anyone. Maybe you didn't hear: The charges were dropped and Starbucks apologised to them.

    You got that right. In fact, if you look at crime statistics the way liberal race baiters pretend to measure, we aren't really a nation of racist whites who discriminate against blacks, but a nation of racist Asian Americans who discriminate against Native Americans. This is because Asians Americans are the least incarcerated, the least killed by Police, the richest, healthiest, most educated and smartest Americans per capita of all Americans. While Native Americans are at the other extreme. Blacks, Hispanics and whites fill the middle of the scale. Liberals don't seek justice. They have big eyes (lust) for the assets and political power of whites. And that's due to the nature of Democracy. In short, they are full of S***.

    Prove it. Even the "alt right" espouses left wing ideology, with some white supremacism sprinkled in. The only difference is they talk about whites instead of blacks or browns. The right wing ideology is about equality of opportunity while the left wing looks to give people who don't deserve stuff free stuff in exchange for votes and power.

    They were let go cause the store owner refused to press charges. The store just wanted them to leave and they refused. This happens all the time to women or men who are abused, call the cops, the abuser is arrested but then the abused recants and doesn't press charges.

    [quotes]And the manager together with the ENTIRE company is grovelling with excuses all over the place that they were in the wrong.[/quote]Cause they are spineless virtue signaling SJWs. Until they give up all control of their company to all blacks, I wont believe they are progressive enough.

    Prove that those who voted democrat back then now vote republican. Hell, the politicians stayed democrat sans one, why would the voters change if the ideologies and politicians didn't? Gov. Rick Scott changed political parties just a few years ago, his voters didn't change parties.

    So just cause they worried about their kids being lynched for party affiliation and not their race, that means it was less of a problem? You people are sure hung up on race a lot.

    It is if you don't buy insurance. But you don't have a right to be in a store just cause its there. The private business has rules that said they needed to purchase something to stay, or use a restroom. They refused and so there for it was the call of the manager to declare them trespassing.

    No, they didn't. It was not their store nor is it a public place. It was a privately owned company location who has the right to dismiss anyone they feel is breaking their rules.

    Its not illegal to yell "fire" in a theater. What you get arrested for is the owners of the theaters determining that you are causing a commotion and trespassing and hurting their business.

    Falsely accused of not being a patron? The two didn't order anything and were loitering, loitering is against the law. Starbucks buckled to the pressure of violence from left wingers. That's why they never apologized for the white guy (regular customer) who got the bathroom code and the black guy (who wasn't allowed anymore) at the Starbucks in LA, until this story came out. Coincidence, eh?

    Are you talking about Sean King, the white guy pretending to be black, that couldn't use the bathroom?

    They were let go because the cops were asked simply to get them out of the store.

    It would be really great if you could apply some earnest input but I'm an old guy now and I can't hold my breath nearly as long I could when I was young.

    So you are admitting that you can't actually refute anything I said with facts and that you are going away?

    I know of no law worded in that manner. "Your honour! These two men are guilty as sin for disobeying the United States Patron Act!"

    Loitering is a Joker-card concept that is used at the discretion of Bozos who can find no real charge to wield against someone they don't like. I mean, you can sit on the steps beneath a statue but if you lean back so that one or both elbows touch the step above you ..... Loitering! I believe that it is still illegal in California to partake in the act of fornication if it is performed in any way other than the "missionary" position.

    There are many laws that never make it passed Judge Judy simply because they are so ridiculous. You say (with distaste) that this particular one was circumnavigated because of racial pressure. And just what do you think a more honourable reason for dismissing the case would be? If they were millionaires? If they were related to the chief of police? If they were 'good tippers' on any other day? If they were white and wearing sport's jackets and ties?

    Yeah, he's pretty damn close. If you add the numbers from 1865 to 1881 and from 1952 to 1965 he's probably right on the money. For the years I was able to find, lynched whites were 27%, 6% away from 1/3rd.

    "According to the Tuskegee Institute figures, between the years 1882 and 1951, 4,730 people were lynched in the United States: 3,437 Negro and 1,293 white.3 The largest number of lynchings occurred in 1892. Of the 230 persons lynched that year, 161 were Negroes and sixty-nine whites."

    In 1892, 30% of those who were lynched were white.

    That's not necessary: You've already done that by side-stepping and squirming.
