    "What did they get called for?" asked a man, referring to the police. "Because there are two black guys sitting here meeting me?"https://nyti.ms/2H2m739

        Starbucks should rather tell us if they fired that manager or not. We don't want an apology

        They need stocks and bonds in the company. Give them that.

        After their revolution Zimbabwe ejected all the white farmers and parceled up the land to subsistence farmers that overworked previously fertile land. This coupled with solving money issues by printing more money. Well...it is really bad.

        Taking stolen land back and giving it to the people from whom it was stolen isn't the same as "killing all the white people".

        Mmmmm, it's 100% Starbuck's fault. Not the entire company but certainly the fault of the employee or manager who called the police on two men who do what thousands, millions or people do in a Starbucks every day.

        Starbucks is definitely at fault and has some serious work to do. However, the cops did not need to arrest those men.

        I agree. However, the police would not have ever arrested the men if they hadn't been called in on a false trespassing call. So it all starts with the Starbucks location.

        Yes Myrna, I absolutely agree with you that it starts with Starbucks. But there is enough fault to go around here. The cops were also wrong.

        No, they weren't arrested for 'being black' or 'doing nothing.' Refusing to leave when asked by a Starbucks employee made the men unlawful trespassers on private property. Starbucks employee made a huge mistake here, but the police were doing their duty removing tresspassers.

        It's a bad situation, but these kinds of things happen all the time, everywhere. Starbucks is indifferent. Black people are about 5x more likely than whites to be put in this situation in the first place, however, and that is the injustice.
