Question To Starbucks: Why Do You Hate Black People?

[saintmichaeldefendthem]

Why does Peet's hate Southerners? And Easterners?

In-and-Out Burger -- same question. You too ARCO gasoline.

If I have to explain to you what an actuary table is, you'll never understand why Starbucks doesn't open stores in black ghettos.

 

[saintmichaeldefendthem]

I live in 97% white upstate NY and the only Starbucks around here is half-assed one stuck inside the Target.

So...... you have one.

Gary, IN 85% black

Oh, and Selma, the cradle of the Civil Rights movement has no Starbucks. Neither does Ferguson.

I guess doing a hashtag cause and telling employees to preach to other white customers about "race together" is much cheaper than paying the exorbitant rates for the insurance required to build Starbucks in black communities.

Maybe they aren't glutton for punishment and don't feel the need to add young white kids to the statistics of black on white rape and murder.

Oh I know what an actuary table is.
I also know if I want Peet's French Roast beans I have to order it shipped.
I also know where I grew up you used to be able to buy ARCO gas. Now you can't.

Why do they "hate" me?

Your logic....

and what are some of the questions they ask of you? was one, "When was the last time you invited a black family over for dinner?",,are they serious? why not ask a customer, "So do you feel like a racist every time you buy a watermelon"?

Gotta admit, this is the first time I've ever seen anyone, anywhere, whine that there aren't enough Starbuckses. Guess he wants them literally on every corner.

Collossal thread failure.

Those are in surrounding cities, you ass.

They're a hell of a lot closer to "Highland Park" -- which is entirely inside metro Detroit -- than the nearest Starbucks is to me. And it's all white around here. They make me go 17 miles.

Why do they hate me?

Is it because I already know about Peet's?

Or the Starbucks Board Of Directors aren't the least bit racist and are making a business decision to not build a Starbucks where animals will riot and burn it down. People who succeed in corporate America don't get hung up on things like race, it's all about where money can be made and at the least amount of risk.

I see several in Atlanta,Chicago,Memphis,Jackson Mississippi, I can go on and on...ALL of those are majority negro cities.

I don't think that Starbucks hates black people.

But I can see them hating you.

I guess you're unaware that Starfucks charges ridiculous prices for coffee, and that a vendor sets up shop where it's going to be able to sell.

So black people don't have money?

Who said that?

Who in fact said anything about "black people" except you?

Then why did you just create a thread claiming you do?

True. I see like 5 or 6 in and around Detroit and St Louis. I know of 2 here both inside the Kroger grocery stores. NEVER got ANYTHING from starbucks simply because I don't need 5$ coffee.

 

[Pogo]

True. New Orleans is another.

 

[Preacher]

They build them where the business is. Notably yuppy areas,near colleges and high schools,etc.

 

[Alex.]

I like a good cup O' coffee now and then.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

i wonder what questions are on those 12.00 cups of coffee. Glenn Beck and his hosts were having a field day on the topic yesterday. I wonder if this one is on a cup. "Every Time you pass a black person, is the first thing that comes to mind is, "Obama Supporter"?

 

[Pogo]

Or businesses, or hotels and convention centers, high traffic downtown areas. Wherever people walking around with disposable income are.
This must be a foreign concept to the OP.

--- or, what seems to be their number one target:
a rival coffee house on the opposite corner.

 

[Clementine]

Urban blacks can't afford a $4.00 cup of diarrhea.

Why not? They have public schools, same as the rest of us. There are small businesses there, just like everywhere. They could take advantage of government loans and attend college, then take years to pay back the loans, just like the rest of us. They could start small businesses anywhere they live, just like the rest of us.

So, why the hell do you say that they cannot afford coffee like the rest of us? Don't you think they are smart enough or is it that they tend to listen to liberals who clearly do not encourage them to seek opportunity like the rest of us?

To make fun of you.
