The only reasonable solution here is for the the barista to tell the "uncomfortable" patron they are free to take their drink to go if they wish.
Ding ding ding!! WINNER!
IF the story is true ..
First .. what other group of people can you feel uncomfortable around and because of your own irrational or very rational fears ask for them to leave and have someone acknowledge your request with action.
Can I call over an employee and say .. those three black men make me uncomfortable and expect that the employee will ask them to leave? How about guys in turtle neck sweaters, People wearing crocs, hispanics with cowboy boots, homosexuals, Women with high hair, fuking weird a$$ loser starbucks employees, gaggle of nuns. Throw them all out!
Oh and those three women are talking to each other in Greek and it makes me uncomfortable since reading Homer .. can you ask them to leave. "Why of course I will just go over and tell them the Iliad has left you scarred."
But that guy over there with the body modification horns and ear plugs .. he is our guy!
Stupid of course. The "barista" would tell you to fuk off.
In the good old days .. if you were sitting in a joint and a group of PEOPLE made you uncomfortable you ... get this because its old school tech ... YOU LEFT!!!
Second .. why on gods earth would the cops have left .. except of course to martyr themselves if the story is true. I think a "fuk you, I have as much right to be here as anyone else" would have been in order.
Too much rings false. Lets be real .. the modern police force like the military is a representation of the population. They are young guys and girls for the most part that have come up in the same "I have to be a victim" mind set as a couple of generations.
I would think .. any manager worth beans would have told the offended .. I am sorry you are in fear. They have every right to be here same as you. Here is a gift certificate for a free overpriced shitty coffee. Why not try another day"
Guy is in court for seemingly 15 years because he doesnt want to make cakes for gay couples and starbucks can wholesale throw people out because one of the tattooed pierced people doesnt like them.
Still dont buy it.
You can shoot up in the bathroom and I think some of the starbucks have nifty specialized hazmat trashbins to put your used needles and you can hang out there all day without buying anything but a couple of cops makes you nervous??
