WTF?

Of course if some gangsta comes in to hold up the place, officer Crooker might be welcomed.

Progressivism run amok.


"....Crooker, 36, a 2-year veteran of the force, entered the Red & Black Café on May 18 and bought a cup of coffee before a customer approached him and said she appreciated his efforts.

That's when John Langley, one of the co-owners of the collectively managed shop, approached the cop and asked him to leave...."

"The coffee shop attracts homeless individuals and activists, the newspaper reported, and Wheat said it is known to be "not friendly" to officers who work the area.

"Most officers would know that this is not a coffee shop that's friendly to police," she said. "It's obviously discrimination to police. He works that area and he can't go in for a cup of coffee -- it's not fair."...

If they ever have any trouble, they at best should expect a very slow response.

If they don't like cops, they probably wouldn't call them for "assistance"--such as it is--in the first place.

Or pull out their handguns and SHOOT them. However they choose to defend themselves, I'm sure they can do so just fine without government interference....uh, assistance.

Too bad they aren't fruitarians, because celery is verboten for Fruitarians. They would be limited to throwing apples and tomatoes because utilizing those won't kill the entire plant.
