San Francisco’s police union says a city bakery chain has a “bigoted” policy of not serving uniformed cops.
The San Francisco Police Officers Assn. wrote in a social media post last week that Reem’s California “will not serve anyone armed and in uniform” and that includes “members of the U.S. Military.” The union is demanding that the chain “own” its policy.
Reem’s says, however, its policy isn’t against serving armed police officers. It’s against allowing guns inside its businesses.
Last time I checked “Police Officer” wasn’t a protected class you little snowflakes.
veteran status is though in a lot of cases so I would not be surprised if there was movement to take it in that direction
Veterans can’t bring guns wherever they want either. There’s signs on every hospital in Ohio.
I wouldn’t be surprised if groups are already trying to spin stuff like that as anti veteran discrimination, although this article says “armed and in uniform” implying by that language they would serve an unarmed cop in uniform, so I guess they just have to ask everyone in uniform if they have a gun or install a metal detector if they actually want to enforce it
It could be worse. This shop could react like police officers when someone enters a police station with a weapon.
I can count to 10 normally. 20 if I take my shoes off. 22 if I pull my pants down.
So fucking what? Police aren’t a protected class.
They’re certainly not a protecTIVE class either.

They’re like Anders, the guy who pretends to be a paladin of Tyr, the god of justice, but is actually the willing servant of an arch-devil
To be even more fair though, not having to “serve and protect” like they lie about on their cars is not the same thing as not being ALLOWED TO.
They COULD choose to be decent humans who try to use their position of power to help people because it’s the right thing to do rather than an obligation, but of course, that’s not how a cop brain works.
Also, to be slightly less fair but no less truthful, the current scotus makes a mockery of the very concept of justice and most of them should be recalled and prosecuted for gross corruption.
Except it’s a job not an innate, unchangeable characteristic… I honestly can’t tell if you’re serious or not.
My job that I chose is a minority of the population too, where is my special treatment?
That’s not how it works. They’re not an oppressed minority, they’re the oppressive tool of the political and economic elite.
Being gay and being a cop are not at all the same. One is a sexual orientation and one is a job. Cops chose their job.
The point they made enhances yours. Yes it is hypocritical, but is arguably worse on the conservatives’ part since sexual orientation is something you’re born with.
Thanks for explaining - yes I misunderstood and thought you were saying that those who were mad a bakery refused to serve gay people shouldn’t try to ban anyone else from their own stores. Sorry about that and thanks for explaining!
