You win the prize, you're a racist by picking this shit article propagating something is about skin color while it isn't, out of hundreds of thousands of articles with subjects that are actual real problems, like disasters, tragedies, wars, deaths, etc. Yet you pick this crappy article, which has the sole purpose of spreading division by pointing out race where it was not even relevant, to be outraged by. Nice to know you got your priorities straight.

The article was about racism and I agreed. This IS a real problem. You really think if they were white, they'd beve been ignored? You're living in a dream world. You're not alone, judging by the posts so far.
They weren't loud. They weren't arguing. They weren't doing anything but waiting for a friend. You can hear people there tells the cops that they were just sitting there. How were they rude to the cops? No raised voices, no gestures, no faces. Even when arrested, they quietly complied. No arguing or yelling, just compliance.
If there were anything done wrong, the court would have been told. The judge saw the videos, ruled no evidence, and dismissed the case. If they rudely refused to comply, the judge would have been informed.
Calling me racist for pointing out discrimination is tantamount to you being called a kiddie porn producer because you have adult websites.
If reading an article on racism and discrimination and hating it makes me racist, then I'll proudly wear the badge.
They refused to leave because they did nothing wrong. They were meeting a friend for coffee. Ordering before he arrived would be rude and ignorant. You wait for your friends, you don't drink coffee and eat donuts without your friends.
Starbucks could have said the guys were disruptive or crude, messy and loud, or anything as proof it was valid to call the cops. Instead they issued an apology fast. PR against losing customers, sure, but the spin could have been that we didn't hear their words or see their actions beforehand.
The employee didn't like two black guys sitting there, not spending money. They were polite enough to ask to use the restroom and when told no, didn't put up a fuss.
Many of you assume they were up to no good because they didn't order. If they were white, would you feel the same way?
Black people often say this happens but no one believes them. Evidence is right here. But here's proof yet you think it's Huff Post inciting racism wars, imagined racism or being racist for copying the link and posting it.
You live in a fantasy world where racism doesn't exist, everyone is welcome everywhere and racism is an imaginatory thing in the minds of racists. You've never had friends of color and seen/heard their experiences.
That plastic bubbles you live in can burst at any second.
