They\u2019ve decided to have their name be \u201cblacklivesmatter\u201d. This way, when their cup of overpriced, hot muddy water is ready for their silver-spoon fed lips, the Barista has to call that out for all inside the coffee heaven to hear. Worse, I\u2019m told that it came down from on high (the CEO) that doing this is a condition of employment\u2014to NOT read it aloud will get you fired.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder if I went there and wrote my name as \u201chorsesasslivesmatter\u201d. Will they call that out loud, too? Or is it just the anti-white social activism that is mandated? Are we that absorbed in white guilt? The \u201cother side\u201d of this social whack-a-mole is professing that they will just deface every bill they pay with BLUE LIVES MATTER written on the bill, (in big blue bold Sharpie). Do they think that will matter? The coffee artist isn\u2019t going to care that the money is written on. They don\u2019t even have to accept it.<\/p>\n<p>No, the better method is to frequent a different coffee house. Dazbog makes and sells coffee. Dunkin Donuts does too. Seattle\u2019s Finest. I could Google more. Probably every Starbucks has a place within 100 yards of it that sells coffee. Is theirs so good that you can\u2019t grimace and swallow\u00a0another brand\u00a0down? Starbucks has a history of left-leaning, stupid activism.<\/p>\n<p>It is well past time to punish them for their stupidity. If I drank coffee, it would be because I like coffee\u2014not because I want a social lesson on how I should feel bad about myself for being able to afford buying one in a fine, clean, crime-free, police patrolled part of town. But I don\u2019t drink coffee. I can\u2019t punish them. I think I have spent less than $10 in a Starbucks my entire life\u2014on hot chocolate. And it wasn\u2019t even that good.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>France learns another lesson the hard way, while the liberal media pointing fingers everywhere but where they should<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>France, during a celebration, witnessed carnage not seen since wartime last week. Another Muslim got a hold of a truck,\u00a0instead of an AR-15 &#8220;assault rifle&#8221;,\u00a0and used it to plow through a crowd of people for over a mile before being killed. More than 80 are killed, hundreds injured. The driver, a Tunisian born ISIS follower, was also a drug user, and obviously bi-sexual. His phone contained pictures and numbers of both men and women he had slept with. (One might recall a previous post of mine where I mention that Iraqi police stated that women were for babies\u2014men were for pleasure.) So, extra-marital sex with both sexes, and drug use. Both things strictly forbidden by the Quran\/Koran (however you want to spell that terrorism guide book), were apparent staples in this goon\u2019s life. And they want to preach to me about being impure.<\/p>\n<p>Worse, the media blames the truck! CNN CBC and the NYT all had headlines featuring that the truck did the carnage\u2014not the ISIS inspired, Muslim crazed murderer driving it.<\/p>\n<p>MSNBC referred to the event as a \u201ctruck crash\u201d, Thursday evening. CBC ran this: \u201cChildren feared killed in Nice as a truck attacks \u2018family event\u2019\u201d. NPR reported that \u201cScores dead after a truck plows in Bastille Day Crowd in Nice\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>While some may be forgiven for not specifically pointing out the nationality or motivation of the driver early on, the truck blaming continued even hours after French police and political leaders confirmed it was a terror attack. The Hill reported that dozens were dead after a truck drives into a crowd on Friday morning. NBC News wrote that 80 were killed in a truck attack. Reuters finally added the terror theme but did so haltingly by saying a truck \u2018terrorist\u2019 killed 80 in an attack in Nice.<\/p>\n<p>No, he wasn\u2019t a \u2018terrorist\u2019. He was a terrorist. No dicing. No word games. No soft pedaling.<\/p>\n<p>CNN kept up the ruse for several hours\u2014even after news of the driver and his social media divulges became public by headlining that \u201cTruck Rams Crowd; 84 Dead in Nice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since B. Hussein himself won\u2019t call them radical Muslim extremists (or terrorists), why should we expect the media to?<\/p>\n<p>We need to get these assault trucks off our streets. It is too easy to get one. It is easier to get a truck in some cities than it is to get a book. No civilian needs a truck that big. More government regulation is required. In the trucking industry, that is. The media? They\u2019re already in the bag.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<strong>Hard time to be a cop; killed or refused service<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lucky\u2019s Teriyaki is a small diner, probably seats less than 40 in small town Sedro-Woolley, Washington. Last week they because nationally famous for telling 4 deputies eating there that they were not welcome to come back\u2014that local customers do not like law enforcement. The police department called back and confirmed it. So they said they would oblige. They\u2019d still respond to emergencies, being as that is their job and duty.<\/p>\n<p>Odd isn\u2019t it? The cops would still respond since that is what they\u2019ve sworn to do and it is their job. The liberal \u201cblacklivesmatter\u201d idiots at Lucky\u2019s don\u2019t want to do their job\u2014serve food. And they aren\u2019t even sworn to do it. Now I don\u2019t know if that is the prime reason the morons banished the cops, but given where they are, the piece fits in the puzzle quite well.<\/p>\n<p>If I were a cop, sure I\u2019d respond to a disturbance call there. Right after I fixed the flat, or replaced the headlight on the cruiser, or changed the batteries on the door lock remote. And I\u2019d have to park off sight and wait for back up.<\/p>\n<p>The owner\u2019s son, turns out is more pragmatic and business-minded. He quickly apologized and offered LE free lunch if they\u2019d come back. He said it was a &#8220;misunderstanding.&#8221;\u00a0 If someone came tableside when I was eating and told (not asked), told me I was not welcome and to not come back, I&#8217;d say that was pretty clear.\u00a0 There is only one word there more than one syllable.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If I could be persuaded to ever go there for food again (and I doubt I could be\u2014after all, SOMEBODY working there with saliva glands doesn\u2019t like me for what I do for a living), I would insist on paying for my meal. Let them fail. Small businesses in Washington state have a fairly high failure rate (40% after 3 years). After that, we can just call the fire department to put out the flames.<\/p>\n<p>Then there is Dallas, and Baton Rouge, and Milwaukee, and any number of places where cops are being shot at or killed.<\/p>\n<p>The Dallas killer said he wanted to kill white people\u2014especially white police officers. He did. Killed 5 wounded 7 more. The media nearly lauded his marksmanship skills. If he was that great a shot, all 12 would be dead\u2026and he\u2019d have 18 rounds left in the magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Baton Rouge: The guy pissed off at white police officers kills a black one. He kills 3 officers in an ambush and wounds three others before graciously being put down like a rabid dog. The killer, also a former Marine posted several hints that he was losing it.<\/p>\n<p>He posted that in revolutions, the only way to win was to fight back-to shed blood. It is the only way the bully knows to quit. So cops are bullies, and this crime fighting\u2014at least to him\u2014is a justified revolution. He even equated targeting and ambushing officers to the behavior of George Washington. Really?!? THE founding father would have approved of the killer\u2019s revolutionary tactics?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve said it before. You could not pay me enough to wear that uniform. I wore enough of them in my lifetime. Never that one. I tried once. In Cincinnati. I remember applying. When I turned my application in to the overweight black female corporal, she drew a big \u201c+\u201d on it. In the left upper corner she wrote a \u201cW\u201d (white). In the upper right corner she wrote an \u201cM\u201d (male). This was in 1985. I didn\u2019t get the job. I can\u2019t imagine how many more letters they have to choose from now. \u201cG\u201d, \u201cH\u201d, \u201cT\u201d, \u201cQ\u201d. All to appease a fringe minority who see themselves as deserving more.<\/p>\n<p>No thanks. I\u2019ll pass on being a cop.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starbuck\u2019s goes political (again).
