You know how cops & coffee shops normally go together like salt & pepper? Well, in Starbucks, they don’t.
The coffee shop that made itself infamous by putting the ‘needs’ of drug addicts ahead of the safety of their customers and employees (to the point that some employees got unwittingly poked by used needles) doesn’t want POLICE making their customers feel ‘unsafe’.
No, that isn’t a typo. The world has officially become crazy.
Heroin addicts are NOT considered a danger to customers and staff, but law enforcement is… somehow.
Cops Kicked Out of Starbucks
According to a tweet from the Tempe Officers Association, six Tempe Police Department officers were drinking coffee before their shift at the Starbucks near Scottsdale and McKellips roads when a barista told them a customer “did not feel safe” by their presence.
The barista allegedly asked the officers to move out of the customer’s line of sight or to leave, the tweet states.
“This treatment of public safety workers could not be more disheartening. While the barista was polite, making such a request at all was offensive. Unfortunately, such treatment has become all too common in 2019,” the organization wrote. “We know this is not a national policy at Starbucks Corporate and we look forward to working collaboratively with them on this important dialogue.”
Tempe Officer Association’s Response:
Don't appreciate @Starbucks asking our #Tempe cops to leave your establishment on the #4thofjuly2019. Several of those cops are #veterans who fought for this country! #ZeroRespect pic.twitter.com/oGaDKhlYX3

Let’s get this straight — IV drug users are welcome. Homeless peeps are welcome. But cops get asked to move or leave.
What next? A ‘cops only’ section in coffee shops?
Here Comes The belated apology
Starbucks has apologized to police in Arizona after six officers said they were asked to leave one of the coffee chain’s stores last week because another customer said the officers made them feel unsafe.
…The apology comes more than a year after Starbucks temporarily closed 8,000-plus U.S. stores for what it called “racial bias education” training, spurred by outcry after a store manager in Philadelphia called police on two African American customers just minutes after they arrived for a meeting. Now, the company is accused of creating a different sort of unwelcoming environment.
The way the six officers were treated in the July 4 incident was “completely unacceptable,” Rossann Williams, Starbucks’s executive vice president and president of U.S. retail, said Saturday in a statement posted to Twitter.

You think this will be enough to make friends and families of the police force forgive and forget, or will the constant drip-drip-drip of politically oppositional forces make would be customers recommit to finding some other place for their regular cup of joe?
According to the Twitter responses, some are pretty pissed:
