Their employees were supposed to engage customers in a racial discussion. People were asking them how come no Starbucks in Ferguson. Starbucks cancels their campaign.

I don't read USA Today either.

Anti-white sentiment is the last form of socially acceptable, PC racial bigotry. No one has a problem with racial communities that are non-white, or political agitation on behalf of a non-white race. No one would care one whit if a black person chose to associate exclusively with other blacks, or if their parents had any white friends. I will say that this campaign is marginally preferable to the "we are all the saaaaame" narrative I thought they'd be pushing.

Pretty much why I see the Natural Right to Disassociate as of primary importance.

Bringing out the collectivists in droves. Even here.

Cant we all just agree that must people are assholes no matter what race they are and get on with it?

[tangent4ronpaul]

Article I read said they were supposed to write something like #racetogether or something like that on larger cups and engage people in discussions on race. Results as reported, an example:

Wrote that on hundreds of cups.
2 customers asked what that was all about.
No discussions of race happened.

Don't go in there often, but they almost always have a pretty good line because the specialty drinks take so long to make. I bet the wait got a lot longer just for the time it took to write that on cups and if a discussion had actually happened people would have gotten really pissed off and walked.

Stupid idea!
They pulled it after a week.

I went to Starbucks back when I was still in OC Ca. , asked for Shell or Arco coffee, wound up with something I couldn't
pronounce.

While that may have been said as tongue in cheek; this would not be such a bad measure of people. On statistical basis people from larger more populated urban areas are far more likely to cause you harm than any one race of people. Pack a lot of people in a small area sit back and just watch the carnage…..
