Coffee chain under federal investigation for discrimination
Should a private company be able to choose who they hire?
Or should the goverment have a say?
Coffee chain under federal investigation for discrimination
"A strong man stands up for himself. A stronger man stands up for others."
Ben
The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a lady commented
on his wearing his sidearm. "Sheriff, I see you have your pistol. Are you
expecting trouble?" "No Ma'am. If I were expecting trouble, I would have
brought my rifle."
(just stole this one hope you don't mind)
The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant,
it is just that they know so much that isn't so.
President Ronald Reagan

When it comes down to it the business is a private entity and they should be able to hire whom ever they want. People are just looking for an excuse for a hand out or feel that they are entitled to any job they apply for. As was said in the video the coffee shop has a theme and if that is how they want to roll great you don't like it don't go there.

Bullshit. How is it any different than Hooters? Or a bikini car wash?
"If anything worthwhile comes of this tragedy, it should be the realization by every citizen that often the only thing that stands between them and losing everything they hold dear... is the man wearing a badge." -- Ronald Reagan, in the wake of the deaths of 4 CHP troopers in the Newhall Incident, 1970

Coffee is from the devil.
For the morning will come. Brightly will it shine on the brave and true, kindly upon all who suffer for the cause, glorious upon the tombs of heroes. Thus will shine the dawn.
Winston Churchill

I LOVE coffee, I LOVE women, I HATE the second guest on the video, I LIKE the 1st and 3rd.
Oh and I hate liberals and might need a trip to Maryland for coffee.
On a serious note- where does it stop? Are they going to go after Hooters? Oh wait, the did. What about The Tilted Kilt restaurant? Enough already...
Not enough of the Kilt though google itA monday morning lunatic, disturbed from time to time. Temporary catatonic madman on occasion..
Lightning crashes a new mother cries, her placenta falls to the floor. The angel opens her eyes,the confusion sets in before the doctor can even close the door..
The views and comments of E-man are mine and mine alone and therefore might not reflect the views of others or people in my current department. As such since this is still America I can post what I want without fear of retribution. I think.
RIP Eric

As I am against minimum wage laws, you should be able to tell how I feel about this issue.

Complete and udder bullshit. Get the Gov't the fuck out of this stuff.
'Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a
delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly
promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely
possible to pick up a turd by the clean end!'

Likewise. If the public feels a business is unfair about its hiring practice, then people can stop using their business. Originally Posted by Five-0

Wait a sec, people can think for themselves and exist in a world without the government to protect them? That's just crazy talk. Originally Posted by Rhino

When a company uses public funds in any way shape or size, such as, Tax Breaks, or Rezoning so that the business can succeed, or Federal Grants, then the Government has an obligation and right to make sure that federal labor laws apply. After all, we all pay for that business to thrive. Now on the other hand, if it is free from all federal funding or local, state easments then, Hire who you feel, and the public can either patronize or watch it wither on the vine. I dont think there is one business in America that hasnt taken advantage of some form of favor at taxpayers expense.
P.S. The govt always has a backdoor into every business in America. The almighty American Taxpayer Dollar.
