Life’s too short to wait for a Starbucks.
Give me a mug of instant made with a kettle any day; I have a life to get on with.

@Very-Rusty "What country and what starbucks was this allegedly suppose to have happened?

Welcome to Starbucks US of A!! This ain't Tim Hortons, ya know! lol

Those ass wipes actually started catering to the street people and found themselves with so many needles lying on the restroom floors that they had to install used needle deposit boxes. I won't go in there anymore.

Obviously that crap is happening in the states not here that I am aware of at least not in my neck of the woods . Perhaps bigger places, Halifax is a small City compared to other major cities in Canada. I prefer Mcdonald's personally!

CNN had that Story yesterday: https://edition.cnn.com/2019/07/08/us/starbucks-meets-with-arizona-police/index.html

It was expresssd how the Police and Starbucks Management met and how it was constructive.

My quesion is: Is t good Business snese to throw out six customers on the request of one customer? (I assume that the Police persons didn't behave like Gangsters, if they would have done so they wouldn't have been asked to leave because of a complaint,or would they?)

Tim's use to have good coffee, but they kept making it stronger and stronger and now it is nothing but gut rot. The Mcdonald's I am told has the original coffee that Tim's started out selling, plus they give you a free fill up not to mention stickers and after 7 you get a free cup.....I would think you'd be breaking down the doors!!! πŸ˜‰

Thanks for the link.


It's not about Starbucks or Tempe AZ. The incident could have happened anywhere in America. Many Americans, especially non-white ones, feel there is an adversarial relationship between police forces and non-white citizens and do not feel safe in the presence of what are perceived to be trigger-happy police.
