I am glad to see people getting involved.
Protesters Swarm Starbucks Where Two Black Men Were Arrested “Starbucks regional vice president Camille Hymes came out to speak with the crows and said the company knows people want the manager fired but that it takes responsibility.” Errr, typo — they’re a CROWD, not CROWS. Dumbass proofreaders |
Oh, for those who felt that Huff Post or NY Post is making this up or unreliable, it was a headline on the Washington Post yesterday. Google showed dozens of newspapers carrying the story prominently and websites by the dozens featured this story.
Earlier today I saw NBC News doing a long story and many commented that the young men were polite, quiet, and complied politely. When I was a young teen, I went with my grandparents to Burger King. Nana asked for the bathroom and they said it was for customers only. She argued she was a customer but hadn’t ordered yet. I ordered for her while Mom took her to the bathroom. I questioned why this happened and Mom said only customers can use the bathroom as it costs money for water, toilet paper, soap, cleaning person, etc. I asked if daddy let people use his bathroom in his store and she said no. I understood the reasoning but if you have to go badly, you go then order. Little old ladies aren’t likely to leave a mess, steal toilet paper or run out the door. Then I got older and realized they DO cause issues at times. Pay toilets are a joke. You never have change. There’s no toilet paper after you’ve paid. If a roll of it falls on the floor and is thrown away, they lose money due to the costs of water, soap, etc. lSomeday it won’t be a quarter but a buck to use the bathroom. If I have to pay a buck to pee, I’m gonna use tons of paper, wash every body part I can with soap and hot water, dry off with tons of paper towels AND grab some toilet paper to take home to wipe spills, my windshield, my fenders and anything else I can clean;) |
I can't wait for the Black cops video to show the true story.:2 cents:
|
It's ok to be white. You can't demoralize us anymore, and nor can your (((media))).
Move on, Hasbara operative. |
Unfortunately we won't hear from the manager because he'll be crucified if he comes out with a statement :2 cents:

- when you wait for someone in a Starbucks you'd first get a drink before you sit down, I don't know anyone who'd do otherwise
- toilet in most coffee shops and fast food chains for paying customers only, so if you want to use the toilet you order a drink first, everyone knows this - staff politely asked them to leave if they were not going to order anything right away, they refused - staff said they would call the cops if they didn't order anything or leave, they said go ahead - police asked several times politely to leave if they were not going to order anything, they refused The guys were obviously in the wrong, it's common sense. It has nothing to do with racism. They love this kind of stuff to happen so they can claim the racist card, that's why the refuse to go so they hope the cops will be aggressive and they can get their 15 minutes of fame. Anyone with common sense would have just ordered a drink and/or leave. |

How do you know the staff politely asked them to leave if they were not going to order anything right away? You don't! Maybe the "staff" was an asshole Trump supporter using his position to demean people. "Staff" calling the cops because 2 people are sitting at a table waiting for someone is fucked up.0 I bet you think black parents love when their unarmed kids are murdered by cops so they'll get a big settlement cause ... you know... Black folks... THEY love this kind of stuff to happen so they can claim the racist card. You have it all worked out in your head because you're a mind reader and all black folks are the same. These guys were waiting for their friend who owed them drinks so they could use the restroom, the friend kept saying he was almost there. But nah, that scenario doesn't fit your racist stereotype because THEY this and THEY that in your head you have the scam and negative stereotype all worked out. Seriously what the fuck :disgust |

Speaking of stereotypes.. I don't know where people get those, regarding black people being politely told something... Florida security guard is assaulted for trying to end a pool party | Miami Herald That skinny white guard probably offended them on a deep level... |

If you are asked to leave someone's establishment you leave. If you refuse, it's your own fault and you can't pull the racist card. The only reason these people don't comply with police orders is that they hope the police will get aggressive and they can claim racism. Even if the police is wrong, you still listen and obey their orders, you can always complain or sue them later if you felt you were done wrong. Everyone knows if you don't follow police orders you'll get arrested, so it's a choice. |

Kind of like getting pulled over by a cop, but you know you're NOT in any violation so you just drive by him without stopping. Once he chases you, you argue, coz it's racism :1orglaugh |

No words were exchanged, no yelling, no claims of racism. These people were observed and taped. The company issued an apology and the manager placed on leave, I believe. They're probably investigating still. Yes, technically they broke the law by refusing to leave. But they were asked to leave --- why? For waiting for a friend quietly? For not ordering while waiting though no sign said you must order if waiting? Or for being a stereotypical black male hanging out and seemingly up to no good merely by waiting quietly for a friend? Yea, if they left it could have been avoided. But don't two men have the right to quietly wait for a friend before ordering? The manager jumped to conclusions in assuming two black males were up to no good. Perhaps based on previous experiences or perhaps based on prejudice? After all, we all know two brothas or two niggas hanging around a cash business must be planning to rob it and rob the customers, right????!??? Obviously this issue is seen differently by people who've experienced discrimination in some form to those who live in a fantasy world and think all is good in the world and racism is imagined. The only word I can think of is Trayvon. |

I'd say that is another form of racism as well, believing in total crookedness of white people, even when everything is by the book. Why are you racist against white people? We're not all bad nor the same. |

Before Trump did you have a lot of physical ailments suppressing all your racism? |

I'm Croatian btw, and considering Croatia had wars on our land over last 1000+ years, I suppose I should hate every fucking nation, religion or color other than my own. Guess what, I don't. I do however call shit as shit when I see it. This entire story is shit. |

Pam, drive into NB and go into the hood to any coffee shop restroom and asked to use the restroom. 9 out of 10 times you'll be asked to buy something. This is a busy urban Starbucks that specifically has to the keep the bathroom doors locked because of problems they have with drug use and vagrants. |

Trayvon was targeted because he was black, just like these two men. I have no problem with their being asked to buy something to use the restrooms. Witnesses said they quietly sat down with no argument. Someone inferred I claimed racism as I’m always picked on or something like that for being black. I’m white but despise hatred and prejudice of any kind. |
I mentioned in my first post I was disappointed the media hadn’t picked it up. Now I have no complaints! Protests, front-page stories and talk show coverage is prominent.
CEO of Starbucks issued a half-assed apology but the damage is done. I’d love to see the numbers at lol Starbucks since this happened. I just saw a video again and I’m amazed at how calmly the men were cuffed and quietly left without a word. They were smart enough to know to remain calm, don’t argue or claim innocence, just go along. |
13% of the population commit 60% of all crime. I'm sure its just old whitey being jerks once again. Nice thread

I think people assume they caused problems but in court not a single bit of proof was provided. The CEO claims the police weren’t called to arrest them. What, just to escort them out peacefully? Maybe the intention was just removal but they did nothing wrong. Can’t bitch if they nicely refused to leave. A lot of celebrities are posting about this. TI wrote a nice, honest Tweet and several cekebs said not to punish Starbucks but just that manager bitch. I had to think on that. She represents Starbucks but it’s not their policy. I’d boycott that store only if that manager remained. Apparently she’s gone but conflicting information is coming out. Some say termination, some say transfer. If I were CEO, she’d be on unemployment. Leopards don’t change their spots. Prejudice doesn’t just go away. Her reputation will follow her since her name and photo were posted They WERE singled out. Other customers claim they’ve gone in to use WiFi or meet friends and didn’t order. All were left alone and all, so far, are white. People are influenced by a single incident. 9/11 made people think all Muslims are murderers and anti-USA. Media shows gang-bangers as black like there are no white gangs. Boston Marathon bombing made people leery of Muslims. Gay child molestors makes people think all gay men like kids. Hell’s Angels makes people think all bikers are murdering thugs. Etc etc etc. Stereotypes aren’t accurate. Individual people are different whether by color, race, gender, religion, hair color (“all blondes are dumb”) and more. All adult webmasters don’t sell stolen content, use underaged folks, promote rape, steal content, or abuse without consent. But society hears “adult webmaster”and links you to illegal activity. Think on that level. A few sites had bad stuff, a few webmasters did bad stuff, but everyone thinks you do, too, based solely on your being an adult website owner Things that make you go hmmmm ..... |

I seem to more know about it than you, which is concerning if you're an USA citizen. You should at least get your grammar right when you try to insult and discriminate me based on where I'm from. Fact checking would help you as well, Croatians aren't big fans of goulash. Funny that none of the white knights are gonna tell you it's wrong to assume based on stereotypes... Quote:
