We find that oftentimes diversity training has mixed effects, and in some cases it can even backfire and lead people who are kind of already reactive to these issues to become even more polarized, said Calvin Lai, assistant professor of psychological and brain sciences at Washington University in St. Louis.

Kick out the people causing disruption, just like businesses have always done.

The article says they already amended the new policy to do that.

The company has since clarified its policy by asking those who use a Starbucks space to behave in a manner that maintains a warm and welcoming environment, and providing procedures for staff on handling anyone whose behavior does not maintain the third place environment.

First off: [A]sk a fellow employee to verify that a certain behavior is disruptive and if it is, respectfully request that the customer stop, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Good. That makes perfect sense.

They didn't break the law. The Civil Rights Act prevents businesses from kicking out people because they're black.

Well, it's a good thing they didn't do that. They kicked them out for loitering, and their refusal to leave is illegal.

They weren't loitering. They were waiting for a friend to arrive before ordering.

Reminder: when two separate witnesses (one black, one white) reported that other people were allowed to "loiter" and use the restroom without making a purchase, djl insisted they were the same person lying to prop up "the victim narrative."

Do people realize that "you can sit in our dining area without ordering" DOES NOT MEAN that employees can't kick you out for a just reason? if they catch a fuckin homeless person sitting their shooting up heroin they CAN KICK THEM OUT. Why are people still trying to push this narrative that its going to turn into a giant orgy full of sex and drugs with the workers standing there saying "WELP...nothing we can do"...That's not what this policy means at all. enough of the disingenuous bull shit...

Why not just order? I've asked it before and got no response. I went to dinner the other day and they started without me because I told them I was running late. No harm, no foul.


It's common at restaurants to wait until your entire party to arrive before ordering unless someone is going to be later than expected. They were only there for a few minutes before cops showed up.

There's also no harm, no foul in sitting and waiting for your other friends to arrive, though...So why not just let them wait? it doesn't have to be one or the other.

I bet when Jack says "(I) got no response." He actually did get responses like yours and ignored them.

Eh, most homeless smell really fucking bad.

Like, piss and shit mixed with rotting flesh bad.

They could literally be sitting and not doing a thing and still be disruptive to customers just because of their smell.

Imagine trying to enjoy a cup of coffee and some dude walks in with bags for shoes and tattered clothes and smelling like a garbage pile that's been sitting in the heat all day?
