If I recall correctly, this hasn't been the first incident of this type between Starbucks and LEO.
Why in the world do police officers continue to support this place with their business? Is it really so difficult to stop patronizing businesses that hate you?
Starbucks is the Lions Den for liberal stupidity, just keep away and spend your money elsewhere. Dont act suprised or shocked at this behavior, its the norm from them now and its not gonna change.

Guess I’ll FINALLY switch to Dunkin Donuts for coffee full time. The one by my house is more convenient than any Shitbucks anyway. The TPD should just tell Shitbucks to take their apology and shove it up their anal sphincter. This has gone waaaaaaay BEYOND retarded, and we can all thank O’numb-nutz for his legacy of Police-Hate...

Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24
I've never been to a Starbucks and incidents like this insures that I never will. As has already been stated, why would LEOs go to places where they are not appreciated? McDonalds and Dunkin Donuts brew a good cup of joe. Go there or some small family owned business.

And they should leave. And never come back, regardless of who calls. It's the ONLY way these turds will learn. Getting dragged into the bathroom by you hair by a druggie intent on raping and brutalizing you? Sorry. Call your soi boi warrior.
Until people face the actual consequences of their actions, not just words and feelings, this behavior will NEVER change. It just wont. Want to ban guns? Fine your bodyguards do not get to use them. Don't want LEO in your establishment? Fine. If the criminal steps outside during his brutalization of you I will intervene, but I will NOT step inside as per your wishes. Good luck. I'm rooting for you!
It sounds brutal but it is the truth. There are NO CONSEQUENCES in this country. None. From the lowly SJW up to the highest leftist politician in the land, they NEVER have to personally pay for their behavior. Laws and normal rules of decency be dammed, they DO NOT APPLY to the leftist. Until they pay a personal price it will go on, and on, and on.
This stuff really does not bother me anymore. We LET it happen. Quite frankly I am content to let it happen to them until they change. If you want to touch a hot stove, I will let you get burned. And maybe you will learn not to touch it again. If you don't learn? By all means touch it again. I DO NOT CARE.
Even if they weren’t LEO’s, So I’ve got five patrons who made a purchase and one who wants too but won’t because of the other five? I’d tell the one to please leave.

Tempe has always been a typical left leaning college town. Back in the 1970s, the city manager hired his brother in law as Police Chief. Their families had 'immunity'. The city council, city attorney and city court judges pandered to Kush era ASU athletics and high profile business owners and their transgressions. I know first hand how politics/political correctness was played in Tempe.
The 24/7 local restaurants encouraged LEOs to come in and write reports, especially during night time hours. This will bite Starbucks like the Nike incident.
Beware of a man whose only pistol is a 1911, he's probably very good with it.

I hate starbucks coffee...burnt taste IMO...so I never go to one.....BUT...if I were there and that happened, I would verbally harass that one patron and be as intimidating as possible and intentionally make him very uncomfortable...all whilst telling him not to even consider trying to involve the LE that they want gone...fuck him! On my way out the door I would offer the LE coffee at a coffee shop down the road...on me!

If I am following this logic correctly, we should ALL go to a Starbucks and say we feel unsafe or threatened by the most left-leaning, che worshiping shithead in there. Then sue when they dont ask them to leave. Make them follow their own rules. Until the folks on the right start using the Alinsky playbook the same way the leftists have for the last decade we will lose.

When I was working security at the FAA in Merrimack, NH, I would stop by the local Dunkin' Donuts and they would give me my coffee for free. Not being a LEO, although the uniform and equipment made me look like a LEO, I would put $3.00 in their tip cup! I'd have my order ready as soon as I got in the door. These Coolatas were a part of my weight gain! LOL
Kudos to these employees who respected anyone with a uniform, badge, and firearm! Go to Dunkin'Donuts!!!!!
I don't drink coffee, but if I did I wouldn't do it at Starbucks. I've been in one twice as part of a small choral group that met there, but I'll never go as an individual (and probably won't with that group again, either).
