The 23-year-old entrepreneurs and longtime friends said they were waiting to meet a potential business partner at the Starbucks in Philadelphia's Rittenhouse Square neighborhood April 12 when a barista asked them whether they wanted to order anything. They declined and told her they were just there for a quick meeting, they said.

This doesn't explain why multiple customers have said that others were there without purchasing anything and left alone. Whether it was a race issue or not, these men were singled out and targeted.

Its a meeting at Starbucks not an interview with a bank... Their apparel shouldnt matter.
Starbucks is literally known for allowing people to hang out in their cafes without actually purchasing anything. Management made an awful and quite racist call. If these were two Caucasian kids in sweats Im sure no police wouldve been called. Just admit that these employees fucked up. I get defending police officers to a certain degree but this isnt the case. --- If you can take a ****, you can probably take a joke ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well at least the question I asked dozens of times over 2-3 was finally answered.
Reminds me of when I last moved and the realtor failed to get the key and wanted to meet off-site for me to sign forms and I was all "uhhh, I'm not from the town I'm moving to so I don't really know of... places... at all, but there is a dunkin donuts near the bus stop... so... there... I guess?" So we met there and neither of us bought anything and are both white and didn't get kicked out or had the cops called and left on our own free will after I signed what I had to sign. We must have impeded their business though because that dunkin donuts closed like a year to a year and a half later. I feel solely responsible for that and I've failed to stop beating myself up over it. --- Place-holder sig because new phone and old sigs not saved :/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

Couple of things
1. Based on the way it's being presented in that article, it doesn't sound like they were ever asked to leave BEFORE the cops got there. 2. It's not abnormal at all for people to do business deals in regular clothes. Especially in real estate (which is what my side business is in), I deal with people in regular clothes on the daily. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

"We were there for a businsess meeting and were kindly asked to buy something or leave!"
"Why didn't you just buy 1 drink or come back later when your friend arrived? Instead of repeatedly refusing to leave." "....RACISM!" uhuh... Fun fact: The only reason they were not jailed is because the "racist" manager refused to press charges and didn't want the arrested in the first place. Now she has lost her job. This entire thing is stupid, the entire incident reads like one of those HellHole topics where a guy who has been banned 15 times screams that it's not fair he was warned for threatening to kill Jews. --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair. https://imgtc.com/i/14JHfrt.jpg ...

There were black people there that day There's also no one else who refused to leave when asked repeatedly and the manager refused to press charges This will never be addressed because the "racism " narrative is more juicy than the dull reality that this should be an absolute non story. 2 lads refused to leave private property repeatedly and so were arrested.

How does sitting in a coffee shop make you a shit tier person? Millions of people use Starbucks for that every damn day. Theyre fine with it. Its a coffee shop. Its a meeting spot. Ill sometimes go in there and sit while Im waiting for someone or something without buying anything. I guess Im a shit tier person now and should have been arrested a few times?
