Multinational coffee giant Starbucks has now been forced to close down at least 16 different stores throughout the U.S. over the recent surge in crime.

As The Daily Caller reports:

The company will close six stores each in Seattle and Los Angeles, and two more in the Portland area, according to the Wall Street Journal. One store in Washington, D.C. and another in Philadelphia will also close by the end of July, the outlet continued.

Starbucks reportedly received complaints about drug use by customers in some of their locations, WSJ continued.

“We read every incident report you file—it’s a lot,” Starbucks operations leaders Debbie Stroud and Denise Nelson said in a note to employees.

“We cannot serve as partners if we don’t first feel safe at work,” they continued. Starbucks refers to employees at “partners,” the outlet noted. Employees at those stores will be transferred to other area locations, WSJ stated.

In order to combat the chaos caused by vagrants and criminals the chain is now giving its store managers the option to close restrooms and change store layouts.

  1. Closing restrooms, sounds pretty racist to me. Kicking out non paying customers doing drugs, c’mon man, what are they supposed to do? It just keeps sounding better to defund the police, doesn’t it? All the glory holes of the left coast! Starbucks, the leftist club willing to fly you anywhere to murder your baby. Mighty white of them isn’t it!!

  2. Stop blaming president Biden for things like this, and for inflation etc ! He has inherited a horrible economy created by that incompetent buffoon Trump , and who ruined the booming economy created by the Obama regime while while taking credit for it !
    And inflation has been happening all over the globe . Gas prices in Europe are now higher than in the US .

    1. What caused the ruin of our society was allowing neighborhoods to be ruined while calling for defunding of the police. The economy and gas prices has nothing to do with rioting in the streets, burning down buildings and robbing stores because the cops cannot enforce the law without being called racist. District Judges do not incarcerate thugs that are robbing, stealing and doing doing drugs in business establishments. It is AGAINST THE LAW and should be treated as such. More stores than Starbucks are closing stores because of lawlessness. Businesses run to make money and employ people. If they can’t do that they quit opening their businesses. No one is blaming Biden for Starbucks closing. The blame goes to those in charge that will not let laws be enforced. Welcome to lawlessness.

    2. Wonder why my 401K did so well while Trump was in office and it’s tanking now. Must be the Trump after effect. Couldn’t possibly have anything to do with our current President, it’s all Trump’s fault!

    3. Are you being sarcastic or just an idiot? If its the former use the /s. If its the latter you’re a complete moron.

    4. What planet are you from?! And BTW, gas prices in Europe have always been higher than those in the U.S.! Duh! Get a clue!

    5. When Trump was president, did we had all these problems that we’re facing today? your president Biden have created this mess, he was the one that closed all the oil refineries. Aren’t you listening to the news? because of people like you that’s why we’re in such a mess. Keep voting for these democrat which want this nation to become a socialist/communist country.

    6. Where have you been for the last 3 years, locked in closet with a TV that only received CNN? Trump had the economy in the best shape it has been in for over 100 years. Obama did nothing for the economy and gas prices have always been higher in Europe than the US. Someone needs to slap your parents for raising an idiot.

  3. Well, they were the ones that were using our profits to fund the breakdown of society in homosexual “marriage.” I loved their coffee, but had to stop buying. Why am I not crying now?

  4. The first thing that must be handled is the Weakened condition of the “Soros-backed, appointed”Prosecutors and Attorneys General that care more about Criminal’s feelings than the victims they prey upon! If America is serious about ending the “CRIME WAVE” that has a grip on America, Serious Funding of Police Departments to combat this Crime will not be effective if the Prosecutors practice “Catch and Release” tactics and will only serve to enable More Crime while demoralizing Law Officers

  5. Liberals ruin everything. Stop giving “breaks” to criminals. Stop voting for soft on crime politicians. Support your local police. Problem solved!

  6. Even with the current situation, you can safely bet Starbucks’ corporate management will still support the very leftist politicians who brought this upon them.

  7. I’ve made an effort to support SB’s self serving approach by simply shopping elsewhere! The real benefit??? I usually get a much superior coffee from smaller vendors! Everyone should help SB close more stores!

      1. TRUTH! They have the MOST expensive crappy coffee of ANYONE! I get better gas station coffee than they have!

  8. Oh no starchuckies is running away from the democrat run cesspools … who would have thought that things were so bad in Merica ???

  9. Aw too bad so sad- not! U got what u wanted – remember that poor guy that felt ‘uncomfortable’ with police getting their coffee in Starbucks? So Starbucks asked them to leave so that poor sensitive boy would not get his feelings hurt. Enjoy! Please don’t ask for sympathy! I gave u up and I imagine a lot of other people have snd WILL too. U get what u give!

  10. Thugs are not going to spend five bucks for a cup of mediocre coffee. And the people that will aren’t going to those neighborhoods.

  11. So what can you expect? They are doing the right thing. If there are too many incidents, then they must take proper measures. If they are unable to make money due to local pressures, then they have to do the only thing possible. So sad.

  12. Oh wow. Starbucks is closing 16 stores? Out of 34,000? Spare me, Starbucks would be opening/closing that many on a daily basis just as routine business.

  13. Lois Angeles? but but but how can that be? I was just reading how CA has the lowest crime rate in the Country because of their strict gun control laws.

  14. Couldn’t happen to a better company. Sixbucks still sucks! I’ll never darken a doorway of starfucks ever.

  15. Starbucks, like many woke broke businesses, finding out the hard way – “Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it.”

    ‘Would you like that to go?” lol 😆
