In reply to Jasmine.

You are a muthaf*ckin lie if you claim you live in LA and have never seen people in Starbucks or Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf or any damn coffee shop sitting and working or reading w/o a drink in site. It's common in LA. People spend HOURS on their laptop in coffee shops all over LA. You simply sound like one of those people who is afraid to make the slightest peep against injustice and fall for the "whataboutism" or "theyshouldajustism" that people use to not to apply intelligence, discernment and a sense of plain decency when there are problems. You'll always find a way to not hold the instigator accountable because you are fearful and timid about demanding to be treated equitably. I feel sorry for you. Go find your voice!
