Aquila, did you watch this?

No. I can later if you like.

But one man's opinion is no more valid than another's.

The facts are:

The two gentlemen in question were not being a disruption.

The customers, and even employees, were not comfortable with how the situation was handled.

The men were not doing anything that isn't done on a daily basis in Starbuck's.

No criminal charges were filed against them.

The employee is no longer with the company.

The CEO has voiced that this isn't how Starbuck's wishes to be known as a business. People should feel free to wait for business partners, friends, and associates meeting at Starbuck's.

Apologies were issued by the CEO.

And you're over here complaining because two black guys didn't get what you think they deserved?

I could care less about who got what. I don't patronise Starbucks and I don't empathise with anyone who does.

Oh, and when did I say "I think they deserve..." whatever?

One man's opinion IS more valid than another's, in this case. Specifically, that black man's opinion of the racial element of this situation is way more valid than YOUR virtue-signaling SJW whitey race-baiting opinion. In my humble opinion. And in the opinion of every Black Lives Matter proponent and the SJW crowd you seem to be falling behind and not playing catch-up with. Why? Because you and your white priviledge got no room to be speaking about what is or is not racist.

Oh wait, the BLM crowd and their liberal white supporters don't like when black people voice opinions not handed to them from the mouth of Sauron's "social justice" cadre? Hmmm...

Why are you so bitter, angry, personal, and hateful? You sound more like Rush Limbaugh than Jesus. I think you need the Holy Ghost. lol

I'm only saying that I think a Starbuck's employee was racially profiling. They saw two black men waiting without purchase and assumed they were just loitering when in fact they were waiting on someone. I don't even believe it is a big problem throughout the entire company. Which is one reason why I don't believe there's a need to boycott Starbucks. It's a management issue only involving one employee in one store.
