San Francisco bakery responds to police union's claim that it refuses to serve cops
The San Francisco Police Officers Association is claiming that Reem's California refused to serve an officer last weekend as part of a supposed company policy.
“NO COPS ALLOWED. That’s the confirmed policy of the bakery chain Reem’s,” the union said in its post. “One of our officers was denied service last weekend because he was in uniform. Reem’s confirms that they will not serve anyone armed and in uniform. Presumably, this includes members of the US Military.”
That is the response of the police union via twitter or whatever.
They seem to think that cops == soldiers.
Which is gross as cops are civilians and soldiers are not. Soldiers understand trigger discipline and cops do not.
Fuck the military too. Arguably they're worse than cops, the fact that they only murder people in other countries doesn't give them a pass.
I was a soldier and I hear you loud and clear.
I wish some wars I was in were honorably defending my country instead of being in Iraq and Afghanistan and gathering the intelligence that allowed soldiers to go shoot the poorly equipped group of people who were mad at us for invading and torturing and killing their family members constantly.
TORTURE was used and defended by Bush lawyers.
It's not the military that is the problem, but our politicians who control it.
Wasn't California the state that decided it's ok to not serve homosexuals based on fairy tales?
Because this seems to be much more grounded in reality.it’s always been ok for a private business to pick and choose. choice is nothing if you don’t have the choice to be a flaming asshole. (and i say this as a bisexual person, but one who has long followed lawyers and egalitarian stuff because it’s interesting and it sometimes directly changes the world i live in). the police union is one of the biggest scourges in this country. a private business doesn’t have to serve them either. but of course, they will whine and intimidate and do all their other bullcrap.
