    Default Starbucks and the Race-Hustlers

    The irony contained within this story is priceless. A PC company, with PC execs from a PC state now having a PR problem with BLM. It doesn't get any better than that.

    Does the CEO really believe that closing 8,000 stores for some PC mumbo jumbo will appease the lunatics on the left???

    Starbucks and the Race-Hustlers
    By M. Catharine Evans

    Another day, another boycott of Starbucks. The coffee company has been singled out for everything from its "no firearms in the store" request to its support of redefining marriage to its declaration it would hire 10,000 "refugees" in response to President Trump's immigration agenda.

    Unfortunately for Starbucks, its politically correct, feel-good social justice policies have hit a snag. The corporation's liberal-leaning initiatives are not enough to keep Black Lives Matter agitators at bay.

    Two unnamed black men, arrested for trespassing at a Philadelphia Starbucks last week, are the latest martyrs for the cause. Calls for a boycott of Starbucks ensued soon after a video of the arrest went viral.

    The stars aligned for the race-hustlers, as a published author and proponent of the "implicit bias" and "white privilege" theories, according to her 2016 Facebook posts, just happened to be sitting in the same Starbucks as police arrived.

    Melissa DePino filmed the arrest in an eight-minute video, and before long, BLM activists were blocking the entrance to the establishment.

    IMO, they actually have a legitimate grief here. I've spent 8 hours inside starbucks using their wifi to work. maybe ordered a single coffee the entire time. I don't know how long they were sitting in their waiting on their third party, but to be asked to leave or order something or have the police called on them is fucked up and possibly racist.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    The mistake was in the overboard reaction to it.

    Once BLM sees an easy target they smell blood in the water and will use the incident to remain relevant. The CEO or better yet, the franchise manager, should have simply fired some people and gone about their business.

    Typical NIMBY lily white, racist libs
    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    A white Starbucks barista probably violated company policy when she handed over a free coffee to a black man who demanded it in the name of race “reparations.”
    Bryan Sharpe, who goes by “Hotep Jesus” on Twitter, filmed himself going into a Starbucks store to demand a “free coffee” because they’re “racist.”

    What could be more just....free coffee for 'reparations'.....love it.....Starbucks is gonna have to raise prices for everyone else to make up the loss.....
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    The REAL mistake was not standing behind their manager who was merely following policy and protecting company assets. Of course, in the new lunatic world, people have a RIGHT to loiter in your store and conduct drug sales in your bathrooms.
