Starbucks did the right thing good for them

On Monday, Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson apologized for the incident on Good Morning America. “The circumstances surrounding the incident and the outcome in our store on Thursday were reprehensible. They were wrong,” Johnson said. “For that, I personally apologize to the two gentlemen that visited our store.”

In a statement, Johnson said that he hopes to apologize in person to the young men arrested. He also noted that the situation does not align with Starbucks mission and goals to create a safe and welcoming environment.

“Creating an environment that is both safe and welcoming for everyone is paramount for every store,” he said.

Well there ya go!

Well, that didn't last long :

What race was the manager in the video. She doesn't look white.

i would settle for 5 mill https://gfy.com/images/smilies/new2/pimp.gif

Fired vs. "mutual decision"

I guess the thread title wouldn't be as exciting if it read "mutual decision".

Starbucks is very blatant in their White agenda. Coincidence? I think not.

You'd "settle" for a lot less.

Then again, so would I.

You would settle for a venti mocha.

Damn she just lost her job she just doesn't know it yet :1orglaugh

like it was mutual to leave your job :1orglaugh :1orglaugh it was that or an official firing. why did the manager bother them anyway? i sat in my local for 3 hours on wifi. i had a 64 oz and two bear claws from quik stop.

Bonus points if the manager voluntarily quit saying, "I quit...too many black people loitering in here."

Too late now for this action, the boycott starbucks movement is in swift motion. I suspect this one incident is going to cost them hundreds of millions.

↑↑↑ Wrong yet again

That shows how reliable your sources are; King's video was done in Torrance, back in January.

National news was reporting the Philly manager "doesn't work at that location" anymore; implying they were merely relocated.

I see tons of people sitting there using WIFI with cup of coffee for hours

GOOD! That was some racist shit right there.

Having said that, this is still fucking funny:

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

They did the PR thing, not the right thing. They decided that the negative PR will cost them more then the lawsuit the manager will bring against them for wrongful termination.

Proof that you don't know what I talking about.

Hint : It didn't last long that Starbucks didn't discriminate.

:2 cents:

Highly relevant to the story:

So what's the right thing? Should the employees have helped gun the two guys down for sucking up all the White man's WIFI?

:1orglaugh

The right thing was for the two guys to leave the (private) property when they were asked to by the staff (and again by police) :thumbsup. If you're going to take up the (limited) seating in an establishment, at least order a coffee.

Imagine some random guy just shows up and sits down on your driveway or lawn, and you tell him to go away. He says "No, I'm waiting for someone". You say ok I'm calling the cops. The cops come, ask him to leave. They say no, and get forcefully removed. Seems completely logical, no? And before you argue that it's different because this is a starbucks - it's not, it's a business and not bench in a public park.

Not everything that happens to black people is racist. If I (white) got arrested for the same thing, everyone would be saying it's because I'm an unreasonable asshole and wouldn't leave when I was asked.

Right on, loitering is loitering regardless what race you are ! :2 cents:

That’s racist

:1orglaugh:thumbsup

You got it right and the entire rest of the world is wrong.

Keep up the good work.

:thumbsup

Since I detect your retarded irony, I must ask - do you REALLY believe that majority of the world believes the starbucks event is indeed racist?

Oh boy... :1orglaugh

Everyone loiters but only blacks are forced to leave, that's why the law was created. But you're not American so you wouldn't know that.

"visibly lawless" people at the heart of vague loitering laws in- corporates racist notions of criminality and legitimates police harassment of Black citizens.

What country do you live in again? I forget. You should put your country in your profile like the rest of us :thumbsup

I live in a country where people order drinks in coffee shops or they don't go to coffee shops.

What kind of sick country is that?? I bet they actually pump gas at gas stations too instead of just parking in front of the pumps.

Sounds terrible; how do you cope?

Rotflmao...

Feeling sad for all those 'No Loitering' sign makers soon to be unemployed.

I agree, they make it sound like the police just came in and arrested them. When you see the whole video they are talking to them and they wouldnt leave. Its bullshit, its not a park.

The 8000 stores closed for training is stupid.

You're from Croatia where you had that war about ethic cleansing killing countless people because of their race, people like the Serbian that posts here all the time :1orglaugh Shut the fuck up :1orglaugh

I am a Canadian and we have loitering laws there....and so does Western Europe, you do not have "a patent" on everything:2 cents:

Erm... "killing countless people because of their race"

Hate to spoil it for ya but Serbia and Croatia are both 99.99% white countries so... yeah, race didn't trigger the conflict.

But I FUCKING LOVE it that you tried to turn Croatia vs Serbia WAR into RACE WAR!

Speaks volumes that you and similar retards want to make EVERYTHING about RACE.

You're the true racist my man, cheers :2 cents:

You're an immigrant to Canada and loitering laws are a way to legally make people leave you don't want around and when that right is abused people rise up and let the business know and either things change or they lose money. Free market
