Snowflake Police Officer Identified as "Pig" On His Starbucks Order, Triggered

Since this was supposed to be a thank you gift to the police force from Starbucks, he absolutely should have reported this. That's not snowflake behavior at all.

OP, you're a garbage person.

Not appropriate to do to anyone. Just put their fucking name down. Teenager should have been fired, not suspended.

Good . That lesbian should have been be fired for this

And this is why Trump will win overwhelmingly in 2020

Keep up the hatred libs..

FFS you facists. If a police officer can't handle being called a pig, he shouldn't be given a firearm. The correct response to her would be to give her a talking to about manners.

WaPo says that the barista was fired.

r5 is a cop hating lesbian

r5 is a cop hating lesbian

R5, the barista was completely out of line--that is not professional behavior to randomly enter "pig" on someone's cup in place of their name. She doesn't need a talking to, she needs a new job if she isn't mature enough to behave appropriately.

Trigglypuff at it again.

Now that barista will sit at home and enjoy welfare like a true welfare queen

The icing on this shit cake is the pig complains how it's "disrespectful to people working on Thanksgiving." Yeah, unlike the Starbucks baristas, who are not working at all on Thanksgiving day.

R5 would love to have 'fag' written on his Starbucks and then have a civil discussion about manners.

You can't condone this behavior towards ANY customers ever. No paying customer deserves that treatment.

Meh. The coffee was free. Get a sense of humor, piggly wiggly.

R12, Don't you have shop to loot?

R13, if this shitty barista happened to know that the cop was a corrupt douche who abuses his power, I would agree with what she did. But she choose to randomly put "pig" on his cup just because he's a cop, which is totally unprofessional.

This is completely inappropriate and she should be fired.

This is a shitty example to use for it, OP, so you're not helping, but there is something to "snowflake / triggered" hypocrisy. For some reason the right is really good at coming up with insults to use against the left despite frequently displaying their own version of the same behavior.

OP is a fag.

How do you feel, snowflake?

If the cop had been black and the barista wrote “Darky”, what then?

If it had been female traffic enforcement agents wearing a headscarf, and the barista wrote “Pig”, would that be funny?

What kind of law enforcement is bad? What kind of mitigating circumstances make it bad to write an insult on a coffee cup, Op?

R16 - as if baristas have done their research about abusive cops. No, it's never right - no one has the right to call any customer names. Ever.

You don't like a person? You can be cold or indifferent to them.

R18, R19 are right

What's kinda sad is that the beverages were for the town's dispatchers working on the holiday. So where is this barista's picture?

No excuse for writing that. She’s someone’s employee and she got what she had coming.

The bitch was fired. Apparently she reached out to the cop personally and said it was a joke, I guess in a pathetic attempt to save her own ass. Well, enjoy your unemployed holiday season, dear.

I'm sick of "snowflake" and "triggered" being wheeled out all the time. They've both become completely overused insults. The barista should have been sacked rather than suspended.

[quote] So where is this barista's picture?

Now you know perfectly well that when there's no name and no pic that means BLACK.

Finally a good decision by starbuck

or tranny

or both

or both

As per usual, the racist scum come in here to be racist. You racist trash ruin everything.

R5 R19 in what world is pig comparable to fag or darky? are you serious? completely out of touch

What a bunch of humorless bastards. I'm with R14. It may have been "unprofessional," but it's also hilarious.

I see the black lesbos from Lipstick Alley have invaded this thread

Disgusting behavior. Fire the bitch.

Why did he want her fired? That it's rude is not in question. But I am amazed that he was so offended and seemingly shocked.

You'd think he was a pre-school teacher.

Pigs are great. Cute, intelligent and the tastiest of all meats.

Fire the dumb assed cunt.

Cop shoots a civilian, not fired.

Civilian calls a cop pig, fired.

R36: Serioously? Are you surprised? are you dumb or what? he went for a cofee and he was insulted by the barista for no reason. End of the story

R40, don't argue with R36, is black just that barista. R36 is just taking side of his kind

R40, don't argue with R36, is black just that barista. R36 is just taking side of his kind

I'm sure those cops have called people much worse names.

R39, that cop did not kill anybody

R43, any proof of your claim?

How do you know R44?

No one said the coffees were free from Starbucks. I believe the police chief was picking them up for his staff as a thank you to them for working on Thanksgiving.

Datalounge is slipping. This is the kind of shit that would have us laughing our asses off years ago.

This is completely awful and very insulting. I'm so disgusted she would call him a pig.

He should have used his conflict-resolution skills on the barista and shot her.

The ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, gender of both the police officer and the barista are irrelevant.  Civility, professionalism, respect and basic manners are all timeless and should be valued in our increasingly aggressive society.

I'm laughing R48. I think that Fox news must be giving out links to DL.

R39 generalizes an entire group of peoples' behavior based on their appearance or profession. Either this person is a racist or just a shitty person in general.

r46, Just like I know you don't watch kiddie porn . Since I have no proof of you watching kiddie porn . And also I have no proof that this cop killed anyone

The OP is no better than people like R39. And if you insult me or my post, that makes you a snowflake too, going by your logic.

Except .... the reason police are called "pigs" has nothing to do with being offensive....

He has great restraint, if it happened to me that bitch would have been coated in those scalding hot overpriced lattes.

[quote]And this is why Trump will win overwhelmingly in 2020

Because in your barely-functioning head, Trump himself is allowed to literally refer to women as pigs and millions of others as rapists and terrorists...but a fucking coffee cup is all it takes to TRIGGER idiots like you. Got it.

Liberals will never be nearly as brain-damaged and hypocritical as you fucking, demented assholes

[quote][R39], that cop did not kill anybody

And yet this logic is never applied to other human beings. Like if a stabbing occurs on an entirely different continent, that somehow becomes the fault of the Muslim guy running a grocery store in Newark.

Do people like you -when you write that shit- ever think how you don't actually think this way when it comes to others?

Anybody who would call a cop a "pig" is moronic on a grand scale. Truly stupid behavior.

R59 Attacking Islamic ideology is not the same as attacking Muslims personally, especially those who are law abiding. Arguing that police officers should be held legally and professionally accountable for abusing their power is not the same as calling all police officers pigs. Get it now snowflake?

Warren, AOC, and Bernie supporters out in full force in support of the girl.

[quote]Now you know perfectly well that when there's no name and no pic that means BLACK.

I bet you think you're not a racist, too. Immediately go for the racial stuff in defense of someone's PROFESSION. Not an attack on their race, sexuality, ethnicity, religion, but there....profession. Got it.

Piss off with your shit-stirring, R62.

[quote]Warren, AOC, and Bernie supporters out in full force in support of the girl.

Actually, no, asshole. I think it's rude she did that, but considering what hypocritical dirtbags most of you tend to be when it comes to "respect" and maligning entire groups and missing the irony of your whining on behalf of this cop, I'm merely pointing out how full of shit you bigots and racists are in using defenses that you never apply to others.

I've talked about my incarcerated penpal before - he has some buddies who want penpals too! If you are interested at all in writing to someone who's incarcerated, please DM me. I've had a lot of people ask me about getting connected with a penpal, I just don't remember who

I'm mystified that some DL posters think "pig" on a Starbucks cup is hilarious. This place has slipped. I don't care if the cop was offended, but couldn't it least at least have been genuinely funny? Pig is the sort of LCD insult that you'd expect from and uneducated juvenile or adolescent.

^^^Smell her!

R67, They , don't think it is hilarious . They are just just happy that a whitey cop was insulted .

These scums will start screaming and jumping up and down like monkeys if something happens similar to their kind

God, everyone's so catty in here.

Unless his first name is Porky, th-th-that's just wrong, folks!

It should be handled the same way cops are handled when they call black people niggers - the barista should have been sent home with pay for the next 6 months, then after an investigation be given a trip to the white house tor a medal.

The white bread defending the snowflake pig is way out of his element.

OP, wouldn't you be triggered if your barista gave you your coffee that said "Fag" on it? Yeah, I thought so.

R94, illegitimacy is highest among your kind

Of course it was unacceptable for the barista to do something like to any customer for any reason. And termination is the only appropriate response by the company.

But if a cop can't handle people thinking he's probably a bully, a control freak with a gun, and possibly a racist killer, maybe he should find another profession. That may not be most of them, but that's what the most visible of them are.

Where tranny at R93 has gone ?

"But if a cop can't handle people thinking he's probably a bully, a control freak with a gun, and possibly a racist killer, maybe he should find another profession. "

Why should a cop have to put up with hatred and bigotry? Their jobs are tough enough, they don't need shit from retards like that barista. If the n-word or an anti-semitic epithet were on the coffee cup there would understandably been an outcry over the bigotry. Calling a cop a "pig" is the same thing.

Fuck R101 you still can't get the knack for posting once.

Are your parents brother and sister?

R103 is definitely an Odumbo

R104 wears his mother's bra and panties.

R105 is a chimpanzee

R5 Agreed. It's amazing what stupid dumbasses people can be, particularly the young. That sort of attitude is unprofessional, no matter what the epithet was. They were particularly stupid thinking their wouldn't be any consequences. Welcome to the real world, idiot. You don't not fuck with the police.

I'd sooner be called a "pig" or a "fag" than to be called a "barista".

Considering how the pigs love to hunt down and murder blacks of all ages and sexes and classes, calling him a pig was too kind.

So rather than find out why this Barista calls him a pig, and maybe take the opportunity to talk to him, he complains on facebook or twitter about how he was just getting coffee for hardworking 911 dispatchers on Thanksgiving, not mentioning that Barista was also working on thanksgiving, probably for 7.50 an hour, well not anymore since Mr. High and Mighty got him fired.

[quote]So rather than find out why this Barista calls him a pig,

Why the hell he would do that?

Why should anyone sympathise with a nasty, uncivilised, let alone unprofessional Barista, in light of the behaviour, just because she so happened to be working on a holiday? Does that mere trifling fact give everyone who must work a holiday shift licence to disparage and insult customers? Race and occupations are irrelevant.

There are far too many miserable people not equipped to work with the general public; they don't deserve these jobs.

R112 is absolutely right

R109, you are retarded. A bigot. Go fuck yourself.

Really?

Instead of racing to Twitter/Facebook/Instagram to summon outrage and public shaming, the policeman might have spoken to the Starbucks manager and to the barista about why this behavior is upsetting, hurtful, unprofessional and inappropriate. The barista might have retained her job, learned something and gained some respect for policeman. Starbucks would have handed out some free cups of coffee, and the policeman could have felt some pride in doing a little community outreach and strengthening the bonds of law enforcement with the local citizenry. Unfortunately the desire for attention and martyrdom runs so deep that, instead of taking a bad situation and turning it into something positive for the community, the policeman exacerbates the problem by arrogantly touting all the things they do for the community— and on a holiday, too!— and this is the thanks we get, whine, whine, whine. Great police work: You got free coffee, a dumb girl fired, and fifteen seconds of internet fame, none of which were at all important to improving relationships in the community you supposedly “protect and serve.” Congratulations.

R116, ultimately it was the barista at fault, not the police officer. Yeah, posting on social media was attention seeking. But oh well. He didn't owe the barista anything after that happened. If the barista didn't realize that in 2019, the police officer would post that on social media, she is truly dumb and needs to get a different job. Clearly, maturity is not one of her strong points.

I[quote]nstead of racing to Twitter/Facebook/Instagram to summon outrage and public shaming,

Isn't cute when the shoe is on the other foot

This is getting ridiculous I used to work for the state patrol in 1989. There was a running joke, “What’s a penny made out of?” Answer: Dirty Copper. We referred to them as pigs and they called themselves pigs. It was a joke. Are people becoming way too sensitive? Soon, we won’t even be able to open our mouths for fear we will offend someone.

It's all about scoring points and #winning in this divided age, R116.

People suggesting "why didn't he do x..." or suggesting other "overly positive solutions" mean well, but are sadly contributing to a pervasive culture which disconnects individuals from accountability for their poor choices, and bad behaviour. Many things which are unacceptable to people in my age group (51 here) and up are considered permissible now. This is to the detriment of society. Certain things, and certain people should not get a pass, or a second chance. Her losing her job ought to be a deterrent to the next schmuck who contemplates something similar.

Reconciliation, learning a lesson, etc is all well and good depending on the circumstances, but certain things justifiably get people fired. This is most definitely one of those scenarios. I'm not Anti-American, and love living in this country, but I cannot understand the tolerance for general unaccountability for bad behaviour. Standards must be upheld for civility, respect, and self-control.

The cop's daughter had to step in a say he is a pig on Twitter and it has a ton of likes (200,000).

R122 see!

R121 I agree with your statement. However, it just seems like society is becoming way too intense. Was the cop offended? I guess I should educate myself and read the article.

The daughter mentions her father being racist and treating women like dogs.

Most cops I’ve dealt with a have a chip in their shoulders. They live roughing up minorities to prove superiority.

Pig is the correct name

The daughter, with the ring attractively hanging out of her nose, looks like a hooker meth addict. And she thinks "the men and women from Starbucks" are "brave?" Retarded too!

"Pig is the correct name."

You're the pig, honey. You're a bigoted piece of steaming, piggy shit.

You are so right, R122. It would be too terrible if unacceptable behavior were addressed and resolved by the the two people involved so it never happens again, instead of by creating a frenzied national outcry and face-off by millions of people across the nation. Poor behavior must be punished, swiftly, severely, and irrevocably. We must choose sides in a fingerpointing battle, which is, after all, a much more effective response and will prevent further polarization. She should never be allowed to serve the public again, and he should be given an award for valor.

Oops! I meant R121.

[quote][R59] Attacking Islamic ideology is not the same as attacking Muslims personally, especially those who are law abiding. Arguing that police officers should be held legally and professionally accountable for abusing their power is not the same as calling all police officers pigs. Get it now snowflake?

You're a fucking idiot beyond belief along with the rest of the myopic morons on here.

You have no fucking clue why INDIVIDUALS who happen to be Muslim do what they do anywhere on the planet, You just ASSUME they do it due to their "religious ideology". How in the hell do you even know that much? You see, the media doesn't actually do what they do when the killer is white: Get into his background, see if he had mental issues. Maybe lost a job. Did you ever know that one of the guys in France never even fucking prayed,he drank, did drugs, did prison and had psychological issues. ACTUAL psychological issues, not the made up shit reserved for white guys who go on killing sprees. So when you stupidly claim they did it due to "ideology," that's your lack of critical thinking and just going with the sheep when it comes to anyone who happened to be Muslim and kills someone. You just conclude they did it because of their religion as if they can't just be fucked up like some white guy. What about the religious Muslims who have professions and never hurt anyone. SO are they following an ideology?

You see, asshole, you think someone with a JOB where abuse of power is rampant is the same as Muslims -religious or not- getting shit for being who they are. Being a police officer is a JOB, not a race or religion or a color or a gender. It's a fucking j o b.

The barista should have been fired. She's sending out a message that it isn't ok for "that type of person" to be allowed in their stores.

[quote] not mentioning that Barista was also working on thanksgiving, probably for 7.50 an hour,

Starbucks pays better than that on regular days, and on a holiday they would be required by law to pay time and a half.

Stop making stupid shit up for cheap dramatic effect.

If you're going to behave badly to customers, and you get caught doing so, expect to get fired.

The End.

I'm not a snowflake, but I would have complained to the manager if someone did that to me.

R134 is correct

I’m sorry the daughter has a bad dad but it’s irrelevant

The same people defending this guy even after the daughter confirms what he is, are the same people who'd want him dead if he merely made gay jokes.

Datalounge loves cops, R137! I don't know how many times that has to be repeated.

Daughter

[quote]ya the deputy it actually happened to told my mom he didn’t really care and that it was a harmless joke, no big deal. but my father is a camera whore who couldn’t resist the attention

I think the "daughter" sounds fake. I mean, calling the so-called "a fame whore?" I think the whole daughter thing sound bogus. But if it's not, she's the one who's like a whore, in more ways than one.

R140, and yet you believe everything that absolves the cop without knowing a fucking thing about him beyond a cup with "pig" on it.

And if he's an asshole, she has every right to call him out. What she did was confirm that the description was apt. Tough shit if you don't like it, snowflake. Let him sue his "fake" daughter if she's lying.

Why take the time to find out why the barista called uses the term pig? Because it is a teaching moment. If you just ask the person why they felt the need to do that. Maybe they have bad experiences with Police, random stops, stop and frisks etc. Just talk to the other person, it's not that fucking hard. Instead, he gets to be indignant and fire up the right-wing base about how no one respects hardworking police on thanksgiving. Oh and PS the average pay per hour is 8-10 dollars an hour for a barista. The average pay for a police officer in Keifer OK (where he is from) is 50K. He too was probably making time and a half or double time for working a holiday.

R143, and they don't want to hear that his own daughter is confirming what he really is and they don't want that heard. Meanwhile, you see early in this thread "Is she black??? Is the barista black???" The race of the barista is apparently pertinent, but the cop's own daughter saying exactly what he is is simply ghaaastly.

So we're not allowed to hear from his own daughter, but these same assholes want to merely know the race of the barista so they can go off about black people.

Typical - he posts this in response to PIG -

“What irks me is the absolute and total disrespect for a police officer who, instead of being home with his family and enjoying a meal and a football game, is patrolling his little town,” he said in the post, which was widely circulated and has since been taken down.

Then when he is told that Starbucks fired the Barista - he asks them to reconsider and for civility in the matter.

"And if he's an asshole, she has every right to call him out. What she did was confirm that the description was apt. Tough shit if you don't like it, snowflake. "

For all you know, the daughter might be a drug addicted whore who's mad at Daddy for not indulging her every whim. You're a retarded cop hater.

"They don't want to hear that his own daughter is confirming what he really is and they don't want that heard."

You have no fucking idea whether or not the little twat with the ring in her nose is telling the truth. So there's no "confirmation" of anything, you moronic shitstain.

[quote]For all you know, the daughter might be a drug addicted whore who's mad at Daddy for not indulging her every whim. You're a retarded cop hater.

As opposed to this stellar thread where assholes like you BLINDLY defend them and wanted to know the fucking race of the barista...but let's pretend that doesn't show what an absolute shithead YOU are.

[quote]You have no fucking idea whether or not the little twat with the ring in her nose is telling the truth. So there's no "confirmation" of anything, you moronic shitstain.

And people with a nose ring means what...?

The fact you mentioned that she has one, says so much about you. POS.

"Yet you believe everything that absolves the cop without knowing a fucking thing about him beyond a cup with "pig" on it."

I know this much: bigotry is reprehensible. The retarded barista obviously thinks that all cops are "pigs". That is bigotry. Now stick THAT up your ass.

"The fact you mentioned that she has one, says so much about you. POS."

She looks like a druggie whore. Go suck her ass, you cretin.

R129 I Think it's a great personal achievement for two people to settle their differences privately, and amicably. That wasn't what my post was about. The fundamental element you fail to grasp is that this didn't happen on the pavement, between two unrelated passers by on their own time. One is in uniform, paying for coffee as a customer, and the other is in her apron, working. This involved someone representing a business, on the job, serving the public.

Whether the officer's character is up for examination, or not, it isn't the job of a Barista to decide who is worthy of dignity and respect as a paying customer. According to the linked article, he was not guilty of any bad behaviour to provoke such rude treatment. She isn't paid to assess the moral fibre or "wokeness" of police officers, or anyone else for that matter. She's paid to take the orders, make the coffeees, and take the payment. It is implied she is paid to be civil and nice as well. It's also not a stretch to expect her to be friendly as well.

She was surly, out of line, and unprofessional. She's not worthy of defending.

R151, I've seen your other posts. You're deranged and an absolute clown screaming about "bigotry" towards cops. Bigotry? And screaming "retarded."

You're a fucking loser. "Cop" isn't a religion or a sexual orientation, imbecile. It's a JOB. I hate dentists...I must be an "anti-dentite" like Kramer says.

I'm actually laughing at you right now. Bigotry? Moron.

[quote]For all you know, the daughter might be a drug addicted whore who's mad at Daddy for not indulging her every whim

LOL, sure! That's usually how it works. Great parenting leads to fucked up kids. It can't possibly be that cops have higher than avg domestic issues which leads to fucked up kids.

Jesus Christ, you must be one of those losers waiting outside of precincts hoping to get fucked by them. Fucking groupie loser.

"Cop" isn't a religion or a sexual orientation, imbecile. It's a JOB. I hate dentists...I must be an "anti-dentite" like Kramer says."

Here's one definition of bigotry: obstinate or intolerant devotion to one's own opinions and prejudices. There are some idiots who believe that ALL cops are bloodthirsty, violent individuals. To paint an entire group of diverse people with the same nasty brush is, indeed, bigotry. You're just too stupid to realize that.

And you're laughing at ME? Honey, my sides are splitting at your idiocy. I do feel sorry for you, though. You're a loser, as bigots tend to be. I pity you, drowning in your hatred and ignorance. You. Poor. Thing.

Amen, hallelujah, praise Jesus!

Apparently the barista involved reached out to the officer at some point before it went viral and apologized.

“Thugs with badges” is my favorite. I have no more real respect for them than I do a cashier at McDonald’s. The cashier at McDonald’s can’t shoot me, though, and get away with it and be praised as a hero afterwards even if I was just handing him my credit card.

I believe that the war on drugs has totally corrupted the mission of our Police Department. Instead of serving and protecting, it is now intimidation and aggression.

"Jesus Christ, you must be one of those losers waiting outside of precincts hoping to get fucked by them. Fucking groupie loser."

Jesus Christ, you're an asshole. A cop hating asshole. Fucking asshole loser cop hater.

Literal representation of every other post in this thread.

[quote]There are some idiots who believe that ALL cops are bloodthirsty, violent individuals.

Right. Tell you what, asshole. When someone burns down numerous police stations or sets a burning cross in front for being a "cop" or anything like that, get back to me - that's what bigotry actually is. Your anger is clearly based in no one wanting that putrid hole of yours.

You're foaming at the mouth in your obsession to worship law enforcement to the point you called his daughter a drugged-out whore for calling him out. You are a genuinely deranged individual. In fact, early on, I said the barista had no business doing that, but I believe the daughter. He's a middle-aged white cop in Oklahoma...I'm pretty sure she's spot on in her assessment of her own father who you know nothing about, but pretend you know more than her. I only wish you were made to bet your life that she's lying about who he is.

R145

And that is exactly what should have happened. He should have returned to the restaurant, sat down with the management and the employee and expressed his dissatisfaction, and ask her to be more open minded.

If he had taken that tact, it would have radically changed her perception of the average cop.

Nobody looks good in this shit storm.

I do not like cops, but every interaction that I have ever had with one has been positive. Even the night I actually got arrested for “disorderly conduct”, all of the cops involved were professional.

I love you, R158

Worship and blind allegiance of law enforcement is a sign of fascism. Ditto military. This is where patriotism crosses over into nationalism. People putting up “we support the police” signs and “blue lives matter” flags to signal their loyalty and submission to armed, jack-booted agents of the state; this is not normal. We didn’t do these things 20 years ago. Now we have people with signs, t-shirts, baseball caps, bumper stickers, broadcasting their membership in the cult of cop worship, and “law and order” at any cost.

Our country is sick.

"I said the barista had no business doing that, but I believe the daughter. He's a middle-aged white cop in Oklahoma. .I'm pretty sure she's spot on in her assessment of her own father who you know nothing about."

Oh. So he's a "middle-aged white cop in Oklahoma?" So that makes him a monster,huh? That view is pretty, well, bigoted. And you're "pretty sure she's spot on in her assessment of her own father who you know nothing about." Sweetie pie, YOU know NOTHING about the man (or the daughter), yet you believe that daughter's "assessment" of him is "spot on?" Do have any idea how biased and stupid and moronic that makes you look? You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. You're just making assumptions, and since you're a deranged cop hater, you "believe the daughter." You're pitiful.

R163, eh. I didn't even bother reading beyond a few lines. I've grown bored of you and your obvious cop fetish. They don't want to fuck you, but you desperately defend them.

I get that you want to believe people like me "hate" cops, but I don't. I'm a law-abiding citizen who understands why many people dislike them. And yes, I believe his daughter. As you believe she's a whore because her father you know nothing about is worthy of your drooling defense.

Is R163 a troll? If so, why does anyone engage?

This is r163

^LOL!

"And yes, I believe his daughter."

Why's that? Because you're a cop hater, of course. Go fuck the cunty "daughter."

R168, you're so triggered. It's beautiful to watch. Such a fetish. It's so sad.

If Charlotte was working at Starbucks she would have done this.

R158's gif looks especially hypnotic while playing Depeche Mode.

"You're so triggered. It's beautiful to watch. Such a fetish. It's so sad."

Nah. It's just that stupid people like you are so annoying.

So funny. a friggin cup with "pig" on it setting off right-wing idiots who think the left are the "triggered" ones when it comes to real friggin issue.

If only the cup were also that red Starbucks one that REALLY sets off the right-wing and I only wish she had written "Happy Holidays" to really set them off. Look how little it takes for these assholes to get angry. Meanwhile, we have a shithead president who has said and done far worse and this cop and the speed bump on this thread think that's nothing. Such douchebags.

Could be the cop himself, R165. You never know.

[quote]Nah. It's just that stupid people like you are so annoying.

Sweetie, you reacted to his daughter in defense of her father who you know nothing about in a way that isn't remotely normal. Your reaction merely revealed the psychotic level of anger ingrained in the types of people who blindly defend law enforcement. No matter what you say, you are in fact abnormal in how you've reacted. Even her "nose ring" was enough for you not to believe her. You are in fact quite scary in how angry you've gotten...at his daughter.

BTW, what's even sadder is that I don't doubt that you haven't the capacity to feel compassion for people who are constantly victimized for their religion or their race or whatever else that isn't a fucking job. On the contrary, you undoubtedly say vile things about people for their religion or race or whatever. No one who defends cops the way you have in this thread is truly an open-minded person. You're clearly an asshole who is fine when people suffer at the hands of actual bigots. You participate in it. I have no doubt about that.

"Sweetie, you reacted to his daughter in defense of her father who you know nothing about in a way that isn't remotely normal. "

Honey pie, YOU know nothing about the father, either. You have no idea if what the person with the ring through her nose like a bull (assuming she is his daughter) said about him is true. But you assume the worst, because he's a cop. The blind hatred of cops I've seen on this thread is indeed, psychotic.

R177, not a single person has said anything tantamount to what you have about his daughter alone, including me. You can put me on ignore and show me where I said anything about all cops being cunts or whores or anything like that. I said a large number abuse their authority. Meanwhile, you're going off on the daughter in a way that makes you look like a fucking lunatic and you can't even see it.

"On the contrary, you undoubtedly say vile things about people for their religion or race or whatever. No one who defends cops the way you have in this thread is truly an open-minded person.

You know no such thing, you idiot. You're certainly making a lot of assumptions. Your bigotry is shining like a beacon. You are one sick fuck.

I haven't seen her in years, but I once had a passing friendship with female police officer. She was gay. She was an outstanding person, always fair, always conscientious. But by virtue of being a police officer the insane cunts on this thread would label her "a pig." You cop haters are lower than dirt.

[quote]You know no such thing, you idiot. You're certainly making a lot of assumptions. Your bigotry is shining like a beacon. You are one sick fuck.

Someone who sounds like you is easy to peg... especially with that gaping hole.

You went off on the daughter's nose ring and called her a druggy whore. You think that's a normal reaction in defense of someone you don't even know just because you have a fucking friend who was a cop? How do I know your cop friend didn't stick a broom handle up someone's ass? I mean am I supposed to take your word for it? You might be some drugged up whore. Do you have nose ring by any chance?

Done with this. Fun while it lasted. G'night.

Anyone who's annoyed that Starbucks fired the barista is a dumbass. As if the company wants this kind of bad publicity. It seems like a lot of millennials and zoomers don't understand basic concepts of not shitting on their employer's customers. It's darkly hilarious but also extremely off-putting how immature and divorced from reality they are.

R110

Starbucks baristas do not make $7.50/hour. They also have decent benefits compared to most service workers, and they were almost definitely making overtime on Thanksgiving. A lot of service workers are happy to have work on federal holidays because they want the extra money.

Well said R182

In my day he would have taken his nightstick and knocked her teeth out. Back when you didnt dare call a cop a "pig" . Why shouldnt he have gone to social media ? Like she wouldnt have had the situation been reversed ? Oh,and to end I think the daughter is a sorry cunt and the product of a vicious mother still bitter about the divorce 20 years later.

Will the cop get fired too?

Whatever for R185?

R119 Open your mouth when you're not at work. When you're at work, do your job and STFU.

r119 is right! She was just havin' a larf!

Geez, people are SO sensitive these days... imagine ever taking offense at being called a "pig" by someone waiting on you!

R188 point taken

R119 I, seriously, see with your verbiage how ignorant my statement sounded.

IMHO, The situation could have been handled in a private manner.

It is not cool to write mean things on somebody’s cup. It is lame to run to the media over stupid things that should be handled in a different way. I believe the daughter.

It's pretty amazing to watch a troll being played like a yoyo. If you want to win an argument it's a good idea not to get all bulgy-eyed and spray spittle while you're screaming out of a red face with the veins standing out on your neck. Also, calling names makes you less credible, as well.

I don't believe the so-called "daughter." Whoever she is, she sounds like an incredible cunt. And she looks nasty.

Nov. 30, 2019 An Oklahoma police officer working on Thanksgiving made a Starbucks run for emergency dispatchers to thank them for working during the holiday. When he got his order, he said, he saw the word “PIG” printed on a cup’s label.

The officer, a member of the Kiefer, Okla., police department, took the order to the dispatchers and contacted the police chief, Johnny O’Mara, who was on vacation at the time, according to Jory Mendes, a Starbucks spokesman.

The word “PIG” was printed on all five cups, KTUL-TV reported. When Chief O’Mara called the Starbucks, in Glenpool, Okla., the manager offered to reprint the cups, which the chief said was an insufficient apology, the station reported.

The officer told the station that the barista contacted him, apologized and said it was meant as a joke.

Chief O’Mara posted about the episode on Facebook, including an image of one of the cups, prompting Starbucks to investigate. He did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Saturday.

“What irks me is the absolute and total disrespect for a police officer who, instead of being home with his family and enjoying a meal and a football game, is patrolling his little town,” he said in the post, which was widely circulated and has since been taken down.

Kiefer, which is about 20 miles south of Tulsa, has a population of fewer than 2,000.

Despite speculation on social media that the officer was responsible for the word on the label, a Starbucks statement expressly said that the barista “wrote this offensive word,” used “poor judgment” and was ultimately fired for violating company policy.

“This language is offensive to all law enforcement and is not representative of the deep appreciation we have for police officers who work tirelessly to keep our communities safe,” Mr. Mendes said.

After hearing about the barista’s firing, Chief O’Mara, in an interview on Friday on Fox News, called for Starbucks to reconsider.

“I’m asking for civility here,” he said. “Starbucks is working very well with me and my department, and we’re hoping we can take this moment, where a mistake was made, and turn it into something that highlights the ability to be civil to one another.”

Starbucks and the Kiefer Police Department plan to host a “Coffee With a Cop” event, in which local law enforcement can meet with baristas to discuss the role that dispatchers and officers play in keeping communities safe, according to a joint statement issued on Friday.

Starbucks also said it would work with law enforcement agencies to educate its employees nationwide and promote understanding and respect.

This is not the first time Starbucks has apologized on behalf of its baristas.

In July, a Starbucks barista in Arizona asked six police officers to move out of an anxious customer’s line of sight or to leave. The officers left the coffeehouse, and Starbucks later apologized for making the officers feel “unwelcome and disrespected.”

In May 2018, Starbucks closed more than 8,000 stores in the United States for one day to conduct anti-bias training after two black men were arrested after asking to use the restroom without buying anything at one of its Philadelphia stores. The company later apologized to the two men.

[quote]“What irks me is the absolute and total disrespect for a police officer who, instead of being home with his family and enjoying a meal and a football game, is patrolling his little town,”

Fuck off. No one forced him to become a police officer.

[quote]“I’m asking for civility here,” he said. “Starbucks is working very well with me and my department, and we’re hoping we can take this moment, where a mistake was made, and turn it into something that highlights the ability to be civil to one another.”

So that's why he took it to social media.

What a fucking baby. He'll shoot people the first chance he gets.

[quote]Fuck off. No one forced him to become a police officer.

I agree. The chief's complaints are dumb, he and the other cops go in knowing that there is always a chance they will have to work holidays. I have a friend who is a nurse and her late husband was a paramedic in the past they would get annoyed at people who would feel sorry for them because they sometimes have/had to work holidays. They both said it was what they signed for and also my friend grew up in a very dysfunctional household and she said the holidays were always miserable. So as an adult she said working sometimes on holidays was good because she would focus on work and not thinking about the past.

Those "baristas" are so.... at frame: 2.30

R152 So someone can't have a bad day? The difference being when a Barista has a bad day she puts PIG on a cup as a joke, when a cop has a bad day a guy selling loose cigarettes is choked to death.

The town where the cop comes from is a town of 2,000. Life is different for small town USA. That being said, The barista shouldn't have put PIG on all 5 cups, the cops should grow a pair of balls and suck it up, and should have spoken to the teenage barista. If they cannot handle that how do they about their day dealing with all sorts of taunts and displays of power throughout their day.

r198, if the girl were identified as white and the cop were identified as black, you'd be hysterical with rage.

Beverly Boyer is a pig and she admitted it on national television.

The troll proves that cop worship is a form of psychosis. These people are fucking nuts.

Lots of people work holidays. Baristas, for one. Store clerks at all kinds of stores that stay open work holidays, like convenience stores or gas stations. Hospitals need janitors, security and cafeteria staff. Airports and transit hubs, TV and radio stations, even web support and call centers, all staff people on holidays. Cops are not special in this or any regard. They get hazard pay, massive overtime, and great benefits, and their families are taken care of in case of death in the line of duty. No, it’s not a job for everyone, but neither is janitor or airline pilot. Or barista. Fuck cops.

Call a fucking barista when those thugs kick your door in and rob your ass R201 .

r202 in my town you might get a faster response.

I agree with a lot of R201 said. I think sometimes cop worship is taken too far.

[quote][R5] would love to have 'fag' written on his Starbucks and then have a civil discussion about manners.

Reprehensible troll comment. I'm tired of assholes like you always going for this homophobic bullshit you call logic.

[quote]You can't condone this behavior towards ANY customers ever. No paying customer deserves that treatment.

People don't deserve respect just because they coughed up $25 for some coffees.

Any time we get a story about a server or barista getting something nasty from a customer, Datalounge goes into primetime because a couple hundred of you self-satisfied losers flock here to insist the server did it to themselves and it's a hoax. Someone does it to a cop and suddenly it's the worst crime ever to have been committed and how DARE this teenager even be allowed in public!

Thankfully not everyone immediately bought this story, and the cop's sketchy comments on Facebook, which he's since deleted, are more than a little curious.

"People don't deserve respect just because they coughed up $25 for some coffees " what planet are YOU from ? People deserve respect always. I bet youre a flaming asshole in life with zero friends.

[quote]This is the kind of shit that would have us laughing our asses off years ago.

I knew Datalounge was basically gone when someone started multiple threads about whether cops should be at Pride parades, and we were spammed with "gays" saying cops were our protectors and no gays had been hassled by cops since the 1980s, and even then they probably deserved it. They were particularly bad in the threads about the Toronto serial killer who targeted gays and whom the police did nothing about for years.

R206

[quote]I bet youre a flaming asshole in life with zero friends.

You're posting racist dogwhistles and fantasies about the cop beating this teenager's face in (a.k.a. far-right hetero wankfic) and you clearly don't know what an apostrophe is. Nobody takes anything you say seriously.

Some people have posted here that 20 years ago, Americans wouldn't post signs on their lawns saying "Blue Lives Matter" and "protect cops", etc. Think of people in the 60s and 70s--They may not have posted signs on their lawn but a large proportion of them were overwhelmingly pro-police state. When the Kent State massacre happened, the families of the deceased (whose children did nothing wrong) received mail from people, mainly telling them that their kids were communists and deserved to die. And according to polls at the time, most Americans felt it was the students who were at fault! So to act like this pro-police state mentality is a new one isn't true. It has been in our society for a long time, it's just now with social media that we see how widespread those beliefs are.

You’re correct, R210, but the points I made still stand: 20 years ago people didn’t broadcast their fascist tendencies so openly. White supremacy has always been a stain on this country, but now it’s mainstream and normalized again. The right wingers of the 60s and 70s kept their views hidden in private letters or anonymous phone calls; if they did something public, they were dismissed as crazy cranks. They didn’t hang signs in their windows or wear t-shirts that said the Kent State kids deserved it. Today they would. Not arguing with any of your points really; you’re especially correct about the role social media played in all of this. Things [italic]have[/italic] changed, which was my point.

Fascism happens slowly; things change incrementally and the new changes are given time to “normalize” before the next evolution. Today we deport undocumented parents and keep their kids in cages. Next we’ll be openly trafficking them. We’re already distributing some of them legally through foster care. Anyone could argue that xenophobia, anti-Latino racism, and child abuse all existed for a long time before this, and they would be right. It’s still worth noting and raising the alarm every time we inch a little closer to history’s worst atrocities.

R211, great points. I think the reason this right-wing nationalism has taken off is because, deep down, these deplorables know they have no future and there death is coming sooner than they think. Those mining and manufacturing jobs they got with just a high school degree are never coming back. They want to pretend like its still the 50s, where manufacturing jobs were plentiful because America was the only major western country that wasn't destroyed by the war. That time is never coming back, America needs to be competitive and their lazy asses won't cut it. When they see these minorities and other groups attain success, it triggers them because they are jealous and they see what they used to have. Adios deplorables!

People are just too sensitive nowadays. This idiot posts about having his cup put on Ugly Sweater on his Starbucks cup by employees. When he did have on an ugly sweater

"Fuck cops."

Fuck YOU, you ignorant freak. Cops put their lives on the line. They're kicked, punched, spat on, shot at. They're singled out as the enemy and they're shot simply because they wear a blue uniform. It's sickening to hear mental defectives like you spewing idiotic venom about men and women who risk their own safety to protect others. Do what THEY do, and see how easy and cushy as job it is, dumbfuck.

"How do I know your cop friend didn't stick a broom handle up someone's ass?"

You're deranged. A deranged cop hater. Do get some help. You sorely need it.

Democrats have embraced the police state with a zeal that should disturb anyone who calls themselves a liberal.

A person who is not foolish will follow the directions of a police officer. They are there to enforce the law. But respect them? That needs to be earned.

A new wrinkle:

Apparently only Starbucks mobile orders have the names on the labels computer-printed using information provided by the customer, while non-mobile orders have the names handwritten.

So he entered his name as "Pig" when filling out his mobile order??

If he entered the name himself, why did the barista take the fall?

Pretty hilarious to watch the cop worshipper have a meltdown over a nose ring. What year is this? 1993?

Also it doesn’t help your case that you claim to hate “bigotry” but call everyone who disagrees with you “retarded.” Uh, we don’t use that word like that anymore, dear. Again: what year is it?

A manager of the Oklahoma Starbucks where a cop received an order labeled “Pig” says she was wrongfully fired because the coffee chain was “looking for someone to take the blame,” according to a report.

Lola Price, who worked at the Glenpool location, said she wasn’t the one who wrote the insult on five coffees ordered by a local officer on Thanksgiving, news station KTUL reported.

“I was terminated from my position because, Starbucks was looking for someone to take the blame for this and to save some face from their company,” she told the outlet.

Price said that she tried to make the situation right with the officer before he left the store.

“He laughed it off, said it was cool,” Price said. “I handed him his blueberry muffin and I went back off the floor to continue doing my shift manager duties.”

But later, another officer, Kiefer Chief of Police Johnny O’Mara, wrote on Facebook about his colleague’s coffee run.

“What irks me is the absolute and total disrespect for a police officer who, instead of being home with family and enjoying a meal and a football game, is patrolling his little town,” O’Mara said in the post.

His post went viral and prompted Starbucks to fire the employee who printed the labels — and also drew a response from a woman claiming to be O’Mara’s daughter, who said he “absolutely” is a pig.

“The Starbucks partner who wrote this offensive word on a cup used poor judgement and is no longer a partner after this violation of company policy,” the company said in a statement.

The statement, however, doesn’t make any mention of Price’s termination.

She said she received a call Thursday evening from her supervisors informing her that she was being fired.

“They, to make it seem like they were right on top of everything, which they are … they terminated me from my position with no cause,” Price told KTUL.

The coffee chain didn’t respond to a request for comment, the report said.

I’ve had a great time weeding out the berniebro jerk snowflakes on here!

Nobody cares that Starbucks is trying to bribe police officers with free coffee? This is basic corruption people, or did you all not watch "The Big Easy" back in the day. Police officers should not accept gifts from the public, period.

So the truth really comes out. The cop who picked it up thought it was funny, when the Starbucks manager found out she apologized but he said it was cool, he thought it was funny. The cop who posted it was not that Cop. That guy posted it with his Snowflake indignation and lit a firestorm. He not only got the barista fired, which sure she did it, but the manager was also fired proving the power of the vitriol of the Trump nation.

I still don't get why the barista and the store manager were fired if the cop put the word into the automated system himself.

LOL, R231.

"And in return they will expect extra protection and that the officer will overlook any code violation s"

R229 is on the far right in more ways than one

r233 he didn't that is a false narrative. The barista did it as a joke with the cop, the cop thought it was funny and no big deal, the manager saw it and offered to remake the whole order without it, the cop laughed it off said it was fine, then all this shit happened because of the other snowflake cop who got all indignant about disrespecting police and hard-working dispatcher who would rather be home with their families than working - (not, you know, the people who work at Starbucks, fuck them I want my latte on thanksgiving).

Lots of bootlickers on this thread
