coffee shop owner denies anti-abortion group with vulgar remarks
 
usually don't post tabloid-style material nor does it need a new thread
but I guess if patrons screaming for a larger sharing bowl gets one then this is interesting enough

Quote:

In an expletive-filled elucidation, a Seattle, Washington, coffee shop owner told a pro-life Christian group that they had to leave the store because he apparently found their presence offensive.
An organization called Abolish Human Abortion uploaded an NSFW (for language) video of the encounter at Bedlam Coffee to Facebook, where it has received almost 600,000 views as of this writing, and then found its way to YouTube.
A barista apparently had informed the owner that the members of the Christian activist group, who were taking a coffee break in the shop, had been handing out pro-life pamphlets on the street corner, which the owner evidently didn’t appreciate, as he explained to them.

“I’m gay; you have to leave. This [apparently holding a pamphlet] is offensive to me. I own the place. I have the right to be offended.”

He admitted that he was denying them service. The Christian customers attempted to point out that no pamphlets were being distributed inside the cafe, but that didn’t fly with him, as he is heard telling them to shut up several times, and advising them to alert their friends not to patronize the shop. The NSFW remarks by the owner included an edgy discussion of the meaning of tolerance, including a profane reference to Jesus.

my first reaction when i read the news was like "wow you guys are okay with people killing babies but you are offended when someone try to promote anti-abortion!?"

Then i found out this is the pamphlet they were handing out.
NSFW coz digusting
needless to say, I'd kick them out too if I was the coffee shop owner. (I am pro life, but I am also pro gay. The rainbows is basically a symbol for LGBT, so to me the pamphlets are implying LGBT are killing babies)



I guess this just goes to show, details matter.

I’m pro choice and pro whatever the fuck people want to do with their lives, I couldn’t care less. But that pamphlet is fucked up

twitchyzero 10-10-2017 11:03 AM

yep the pamphlet is quite disturbing for using the rainbow...quite illogical too as the lgbt community has very little to do with abortion

no doubt I would've kicked them out...just too savage in the way it was handled though

there are people pointing out that there's an issue with his refusal of service because of a baker had refused to make cake for a gay wedding

Good for him, those "pro-lifers" can fuck right off.

i remember there used to be pro lifers that handed out pamphlets by commercial station back in the day

these people make me cringe

Totally agree with throwing people out you don't want in your store. If someone is offended they were tossed for sharing similar beliefs they have the right to not do business there. Owner kinda did it in an annoying way, should of just told them to fuck off he is refusing them service and if they don't leave he is calling the cops.

Homosexuals, through Hollywood's subversion of culture, are an oppressed people to not have offspring... if that is part of the intention cleverly mastered in this pamphlet, I say bravo!
