Starbucks Corp. SBUX 0.31%▲ tried to dig itself out of controversy Monday by attempting to clarify a policy toward nonpaying guests that generated an onslaught of weekend criticism.
The Seattle-based retailer on Saturday had said it would allow all guests in its U.S. company-owned stores to use its cafes, including its restrooms, whether or not they make a purchase. That announcement, which attracted some support, also drew complaints that cafes wouldn’t have enough seats for paying customers and would turn into homeless shelters and drug havens.
On Monday, Starbucks revealed more about the policy, telling The Wall Street Journal that employees now have detailed instructions on what to do if someone is behaving in a disruptive manner, such as smoking, using drugs or alcohol, using restrooms improperly or sleeping.
So Starbucks did a no no by apologizing to the left because a couple of black guys got kicked out of one of their stores and some recorded it, put it on the internet, the left freaked out and the rest is history. Now Starbucks is clarify is policy towards non-paying guest when it's policy towards non-paying guests was working out just fine before this incident.
No it's not a policy that discriminates against black people that requires SJWs to have sit down protests and bullhorn employees in the store like these guy did in the photo below. It's actually a pretty common thing that 99.99% of all other businesses do to make money and service their customers better.
That's right no loitering sign. Get the fuck out of the store if you aren't buying anything. It's been the pretty standard policy in stores for like the last 500 years maybe longer but Starbucks decided to buck the trend and appease the left, bad mistake because everyone and their dog are going to abuse the new policy. No paying customer is going to go to a Starbucks with a bunch of stinky homeless sleeping next to them. The coffee is good but it aint that good, I'll go down the street to the Dunkin Donuts and get some coffee before I sit next to someone sleeping dude that might of just OD'ed on some heroin a minute ago.
Maybe Starbucks should stop worrying about the left and what people say on social media because last time I check being a troll on social media doesn't pay that well and those people probably can't afford Starbucks anyways. They should be worrying about appeasing their customers instead of flip-flopping on store policies because it's trending on twitter.
Give me free coffee or you're racist.
Remember this black guy that went into a Starbucks shortly after this whole controversy and demanded free coffee. He did it simply to prove a point that the left uses intimidation tactics to get what they want.

You are right- do not try to appease those types of people. I have never got into the Starbucks thing- they pissed me off about GMOs... Hopefully they will go down the toilet for being such sell outs.
" “In the past 2 years alone, Starbucks has been a part of a GMA-led coalition that has donated more than $70 million dollars to defeat GMO labeling efforts in California and Washington State. By opposing GMO labeling, Starbucks has willingly climbed in bed with Monsanto and the GMA and is intentionally misleading customers about their commitment to “sustainability” and “ethical sourcing”.” [1]"

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of expensive coffee drinking. They have a lot of chemicals in their products so I'm not surprised by the pro-GMO stance. Their logo should raise a few eyebrows too, a sea-harpie spreading her legs. What message are they trying to send?

To pee or not to pee, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the bladder to suffer
The cramps and dribbles of Starbuck's fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of needles
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep--
Oh, so tired--and by a sleep to say, pass me a latte,
before I head off under my tablecloth, to sleep.
