A Sergeant of the NYPD is suing Starbucks. Not because they served him bad coffee, or something like that. But because they give food to homeless people, and a nut got violent, and the Sergeant was injured. Seriously.
EXCLUSIVE: NYPD Sgt. Suing Starbucks After Violent Encounter In Busy Midtown Location Speaks Out
The Wimp says he warned Starbucks that their giving free food to homeless, some with emotional issues, was going to cause problems. Yeah, because feeding hungry people is a terrible idea. The cop is pissed because the security guard didn’t help out. Yeah, because the guard knew what he was supposed to do.
In New York, the authority of the guard is limited. By Law. Unlike a cop, he doesn’t have absolute authority to do pretty much whatever he wants. https://www.radianttraining.com/training/security_manual.pdf
We all know that New York has a number of mental hospitals. The Sergeant is blaming Starbucks for the mentally disabled individual. Yet, there is a problem there. You see, taking the lunatic to the asylum is not the job of Starbucks. It is the job of the ..... Police.
Under NY Law, the police officer can order a person transported to the Mental Hospital, New York City has several, as an emergency case. Mental Hygiene Law - Admissions Process
But that takes time. You see, they have to wait for the Doctor, and talk to the Doctor about what the person was doing, and it’s just a lot easier to toss the lunatic in jail and go have a beer and complain that nobody likes them and it’s unfair. Worse, the Police have to have someone there ready to accept the individual if the Mental Hospital says that the lunatic does not quality, because then the actions of the lunatic need to be considered by the justice system. The funny thing is that the NYPD didn’t mind tossing one of their own into the insane asylum. This guy committed the mortal sin of recording the cops talking about lying to break the law, and when the other cops found out, they had him committed.

Nowhere in this process does Starbucks, or a Security Guard have any authority, or responsibility, at all. Their job is to notify the police when a problem arises. You know, because we have laws against vigilantes.
Now the Sergeant says he is suing because his career might be over. He dislocated his shoulder, and it hurts. Yeah. Are you kidding me?
Note to Starbucks. Fight this shit right to the end, and when you win, demand payment of legal expenses by the jackass. Don’t settle, and if his legal fees land him on the street living out of a cardboard box, so much the better.
