i dont see what is the problem calling the cops on a couple of dodgy men, i guess the problem is why were they subsequently arrested unless they cheeked the cops or refused to leave when asked?

Oh wait they are black so they cant be up to no good?

I doubt the staff saw colour, well done them keeping customers safe


I hope they get a bonus for vigilance

so it's ok to call the police if you think someone is 'dodgy'

they're weren't disturbing anyone, the people around them even said so

[montblanc]

i'm confused at a few of the people in this thread saying that they were 'dodgy' or had 'bad attitudes'

the people around them were very confused as to why they were being arrested so surely if they were any of those things, the bystanders wouldn't be so adamant in displaying how unfortunate their arrest was

Yes, staff were worried for customers safety - could be pickpockets or the like or terrorists regardless of race.

Always be vigilant that is what we are told

If "looking dodgy" was a valid reason for being arrested then most of the population would be in jail.

I dunno. The heroin users sometimes fall asleep in there or leave drug paraphernalia and yes, that's bad but... ... ... ... it's the drunks that ****ing piss and sh*t up the walls / in the sink / just everywhere. Which IMO is worse.

Its for customers, do you let people use your loo at home off the street?

Depends who it is, I let the sky man who was fitting something next door come in for a wee the other week and the post lady who delivers around here comes in sometimes too...although I technically know her she used to be my dinnerlady so thats cheating I guess

Plus I have asked in Starbucks and never been refused.

No but I doubt her house is open to the public like, say, a shop.

If I worked somewhere and somebody needed the toilet I would let them even if the policy was buy or no loos. Why would you make somebody suffer?

Me too. No one deserves the embarrassment if they peed/pooed themselves which could lead to them having a rash and the public close by don't deserve to smell what they did either, very unhygienic.

When you have to go you have to go, i'm sure people would want to hold whatever they need but sometimes you can't and you don't have long.
