Easily verifiable if you are interested in doing your own research.
I link the story. You got the gist. That was not the point of my entire post. The point was no one has ever accused Starbucks of being racist, until now.

But do the typical forum thing, find one piece that is wrong hyper focus and ignore all the rest.


Did they get a payout from Starbucks?

Did a starbucks employee call the police on a white man because he wanted a certain name on the cup?

Maybe Starbucks is not racist?

Maybe those guys made a problem where there was not one and if they were actually classy dudes they would have just left when accused of loitering?

Nope, lets concentrate on the dates when the Veterans plan and Refugee plans rolled out because THAT is what this thread wall about.
