        Have you ever been to a Starbucks? They are set up for “loitering”....I’ve been in their cafes dozens of times waiting on friends and not ordering until they get there. I’ve even used the BR. Never an issue...but I’m a white woman.

        I've don't my homework. Several articles I've read mentioned that they were not asked to leave until police showed up. If you have sources saying otherwise, I'd love to see them.

        According to the local police commissioner they were asked to leave before the police were called https://youtu.be/gRHkAXiqfVQ  you can start it about a minute in and clearly hear him saying that. It's okay I did your homework for you.

        The thing is, these guys didn't break the law. Have you read about what happened?

        If a private business asks you to leave, and you do not leave, it's trespassing. Doesn't mean the manager wasn't a prick, but if they tell you to get out, get out.

        Obviously the sign on the Starbucks front door that says the restrooms are for the use of our customers works just as good as the school signs that say this is a no gun zone

        I’m sure they’d have been ok had they been sporting the required man bun and skinny jeans.

        Starbucks is not a racist organization. They were the first socially conscious organization that really walked the walk. Bad things happened at this store but it statistically a small sample. If I thought they were racist I would never go there again

        I agree. Nevertheless, this example shows us that even among more socially conscious organizations, racist hegemony is still present.
