of the Starbucks employee would be to refuse the complaining customers request...politely suggest the customer deal with their presence or just leave the establishment...possible offer to refund her purchase just because...or not... This employee needs some training IMHO.. -------------------------------------------------------- www.yahoo.com/news/starbucks-barista-asks-police-officers-151437758.html

Starbucks should have offered the offended customer a seat out of view of the police officers. Stupid thing for the Starbucks worker to do. I am still livid regarding this past year's Starbucks' Christmas cups for not being Christmasy enough.

If this is the case why didn't the cop kick in the White privileged thing?? Bills don't bother responding to this, It me spouting off over previous posts.

Your suggesting that a person having say a beverage at a public food business doesn't have the right to consume their purchased food item just because another customer for what ever reason is not comfortable with their presence...the merchants of that business should ask them to move out of site or leave... In this case police officers...?

Well, Dezii, how would feel if you were at Starbucks, there was a group of gang bangers there at the same time. One of those gang member had already shot seven and killed six, another one had already fired his gun at five different events, Not saying that these were the same ,but they were wearing the same gang colors! By the way the banger that had shot seven killing six shot his last pretty close by to this Starbucks,,
Yea, he shot a 50 year old unarmed Grandfather holding a year old grandson just a few foot away, while the Grand father was sitting the grand son down!

don't know about Dezii, but I would feel very unsafe, and ask the manager if they could leave.
but more likely, I would simply leave, myself, without saying a word. second, if I felt particularly entitled, I would tell the manager before doing so.

Easy to answer that question...if I am anywhere and feel it is unsafe, I just simply get up and leave. What is so hard about that and please explain to me what a "gang banger " is, how would I recognize them? As far as confronting anyone...my days of being armed and shooting folks are decades away...and as one who has seen what such confrontations can cause, anyone who looks for those type pf confrontations has to be nuts and while I am many things, nuts I am not. Hope that answers your question...plus these were police officers that were asked to leave. It seems that the one asking management for their removal would have been the same type who would have been dissing me, calling me names and such as I traveled home from overseas...Didn't like it then and certainly not know.... Back then in a mustering out lecture, it was explained to us what we might encounter as we traveled home and suggested we keep low profile. Being obstinate and also young and full of piss and vinegar...I was anything but...wore all my decorations and stayed public...ate publicly and whether by my demeanor possible sent out a message..."you fuck with me at your own peril"...also there was a few of us traveling basically same area and all had served on the line and had similar thoughts..Also went out on town in uniform, with decorations , when got home for a while.....but really , not to make a point but more to unwind and allow folks to buy us free rounds...and many did..[Hey...young and antsy..and free booze? ]
