What kind of backwards ass strawman is that lmao


It's still discrimination and it came from a place of hate. He refused to serve them because they are cops. Do you support discrimination?

I never understood boycott mentality.

Dunkin Donuts is delicious. I'd gladly tell every other cop in my precinct to shove it. I'm not trading my Sausage/Egg/Cheese on a poppy for some weak ass, limp, soggy sandwich from the 7-11 heat rack. >_>

That Dunkin donuts and all of them across the country need to be shut down immediately, no need for blatant bigotry in this country. Damn shame a company decides who they will and won't serve.

If the police don't like it they can simply change occupation. Or maybe not wear their uniform to buy donuts. Or if we believe Dunkin Donut's explanation, they should just go to a register that's open.

So would you say that gay people need to be straight or act straight when they go into businesses?

As far as I'm aware, being lesbian has never and will never result in my rent being paid or the death of civilians followed by me getting a paid vacation.

Seems pretty easy to boycott Dunkin Donuts. They're all about coffee and every food place serves coffee now pretty much.

A manager at the Brooklyn franchise apologized, but parent company Dunkin’ Brands claimed the store’s confusing layout led the cops to order at a closed register — an explanation that police unions have called “an insult.”

so, idiot cop tries to order at a closed register, gets denied because it's a closed register, and then gets so butthurt that he starts a nationwide boycott campaign and alleges cop hate when he was really just a fucking idiot

hoo boy, what a doozy

When duran is on the same side of the argument as me you know something's up

The only people up in arms are the police.. The store even said they were sorry. Most people don't get the CEO of a store to say sorry after something bad happens to them.

Announcing it and making it a big thing is what makes it petty. The employee refused them service wrongfully. They could have used his as an opportunity to maybe turn that employees view around. Instead they likely solidified it by acting like this. They're not even allowed to give directions to a DD? That's even more petty and childish.

They didn't get service because they were standing in the wrong place, and the story has video evidence. Moreover even with them being in the wrong the owner said sorry. So the store have always said sorry for the cop's mistake. So how is this not petty .

LOLOLOLO So some stupid customers who happened to be cops were pissed that an employee was doing his job instead of acting like a servant to them so now all cops everywhere are supposed to boycott a business? This must be the "unbelievable danger" cops are always in, right?

Cops get so afraid that in broad daylight they see a little kid and shoot him on the spot.

Honestly they need safe spaces. Like maybe... A prison cell.

Imagine being so hysterical that you think this.

A manager at the store disputed that account, saying: â€These two men in shirts and ties — who I later found out were police — must have never come to this Dunkin’ Donuts before, because instead of waiting in the line where you order, they waited at the counter where you pick up your order.â€

â€You can see on the security tape: they stand here for five minutes, while other customers were being served. One customer even ordered ice cream, and they must’ve not like that because they left the store,†he added.

The manager, who wouldn’t give his name, wouldn’t let The Post view the video.

A boycott is only effective if you tell people. As a kid I remember my mom telling anyone who would listen that Carl's Jr was evil as they wouldn't sub a milk for soda. The place near us at least changed the policy so maybe in my mind boycott seems normal.

I didn't read the article just the op. If they have a tape and these cops made it up the thing is obviously dumb as hell and back on the original cops.

Being a cop is a choice. Being gay or lesbian is not. You know what you're getting yourself into when you choose to be a cop. You have no control over the potential issues you can face when you are born homosexual. Next.

For the record I think it's shitty to refuse service to someone just for being a cop. But that didn't even happen here apparently.
