Third, if you don’t know where Rittenhouse Square is or more importantly what it is, then your comments are off base. It is one of the gems of Philadelphia (frankly, it’s Philly so consider that point). Some of the most exclusive and high priced homes in Philly are in this area.

These two were treated this way simply for being two black men in the wrong neighborhood. If you don’t get that, you need to get out of your white neighborhood and wake up to the double standard and profiling of minorities that still exists in our country.

Two classy dudes.
You're wrong.

A Starbucks employee called the cops on a white customer because --when asked for his name for the cup call-- he said Trump.

Another Starbucks employee called the cops on a couple young white women customers because they were laughing so hard at an elephant noise one of them made.

So back the virtue signaling truck up and consider that employees at Starbucks are not always willing to take sheet from people in their workplace. Especially non-customers who give lip by calling the employees racists.
