And I’m so sick of white boys denying that there is a double standard and using the “race card” as their defense.
And to your point, the CEO Kevin Johnson disagreed with this as it goes against their belief that 'Starbucks was built around the concept of a third place where we create a warm and welcoming environment for all customers. What I do know is that did not happen in this instance. And that is what we're focused on.'
If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem when it comes to a fair and equal society.

Oh bite me. Maybe you missed that fact that these people weren't customers so the CEOs words (aka save my company's ass corporate speak) don't apply. And two
non customers refusing to leave a retail establishment when asked isn't racism. It's not even in the same ball park.
Your views embody the real racism- the subtle bigotry of low expectations so often expressed by whites with a guilt complex. We can't ask them to leave- they're black......
You feel that bad about it start your own business and open your offices to the public. Be sure not to ask
anyone to leave when they just want to come in, hang out, use the loo, etc. For God's sake don't ask them to buy anything- especially if they're black. By your standards they probably couldn't afford to anyway, right?
