1) Starbucks is not a bar
2) Neither of the guys arrested claimed racism and they've have been friends since childhood and patrons of that Starbucks since the age of 15.
3) You're another alt-right foreigner nic lying to stir shit in a country you've never lived in and who's language is not your own.
Here is the account from both guys, from their own mouths:
"The men said they arrived at the Center City Starbucks at 4:35 p.m. for a 4:45 business meeting. Immediately upon walking in, Nelson asked the manager if he could use the restroom. The manager said the restrooms were for paying customers only.
“And I just left it at that,” Nelson, 23, said.
Robinson said that after Nelson got back to the table, the manager came over to their table to ask if she could help with any drinks or water. Robinson said they had water bottles with them and were waiting for a meeting.
At 4:37 — two minutes after the men arrived — the manager called the police to report that “two gentlemen in my cafe that are refusing to make a purchase or leave.” Officers arrived at 4:41, according to tapes released by the Philadelphia police this week.
Robinson said that when he saw police arrive, he thought, “They can’t be here for us.”
Roberts asked Robinson about Starbucks’s policy that restricts nonpaying customers from using the restroom or sitting in the store, as well as the fact that the police told him and Nelson to leave.
“I understand that rules are rules, but what’s right is right, and what’s wrong is wrong,” Robinson said."
