        No. In 2018, perception is everything. It doesn’t matter what the truth is. Once social media makes its decision, that becomes he truth.

        Were in some dangerous territory. Facts don't matter for the left or right. The only thing that matter is the idea now. Guilty before proven innocent, trial by public opinion and a new form of mob rule through the use of technology. Tribalism to the extreme. It's a chaos wave.

        Hey, @Starbucks , I'll help w/ training. 1. Don't be an a**hole. 2. Don't be an a**hole to people just because they don't look like you. 3. If you feel like being an a**hole for ANY reason, see number 1. 4. If you just can't stop being an a**hole, go work somewhere else- alone.

        Ya might wanna check the story. They were never asked to leave before police were called. Why is it okay for white people present that night to be in Starbucks without ordering but brown people have to order before their friend arrives or go to jail? That's some racist b.s.

        Why not keep Starbucks open that day and Donate the revenue to the local inner city kids programs?!

        Why should they do that???? #sturbucks provides their employees medical benefits, reimbursed college tuition, people I know work for the company for years and praise it. Why should they give their revenue away from their employees???

        @Starbucksnews #mediation training can provide your crew with a “mediators mind” that allows them to quickly see the rest of the story and avoid a fight/flight/freeze response.

        I guarantee the entire day will be a waste of time. People are who they are. A day of sermonizing will accomplish nothing. It’s just a feel-good measure to appease the social media horde.
