  1. This so called restaurant should be ashamed of there actions, Be glad you left SFPD , thank you for your service SFPD

  2. The worst thing that ever happened to this country is the liberal mentality. Since the early sixties they have been destroying any fabric of decent society that is left. This is what happens when the "alternative" lifestyles live in a fantasy world. Blame the police for your own failed policies.

    Well, I'm going to go against the grain here, although I agree with most of the commenters that the owners of the restaurant behaved atrociously, and deserved the initial backlash. However, that said, I think people should accept their very abject apology, no matter what your opinion of the sincerity of the apology. After all, what else could they really do? They can't undo what has been done. Why should anyone ever apologize for anything, if people won't accept an apology? Why not just double down on stupid behavior? Only the owners of that restaurant know their level of sincerity -- I don't, and neither do any of you. Perhaps this can be a learning moment for these two "wokesters." I hope they will learn not only that this kind of thing can hurt their bottom line, but also that rigid thinking can lead to stupid actions., and will reconsider their narrow beliefs. Driving them out of business will probably only reinforce their self-righteousness, not counter it. Maybe the police department can test the sincerity of their apology by sending over 5 cops for lunch.

      I'll let you volunteer to be one of the five cops sent over for lunch to test their sincerity. I won't be joining you. These people have made their thought process and values very plain. I'm not going to eat there and get a surprise in my food. No way. No how. If these people will discriminate against people because of their profession, it's hard to say what they'd do to anyone that they perceived a difference with. No thanks, I'll eat elsewhere.

    2. The second part of the apology went on to say that they would be happy to have the police there off duty and without their firearms. Apology with a bit of stand their ground for their actions.

    3. This is the most rounded and logical response and attitude I read. I agree. There is a possibility that the restaurateurs are indeed sorry for their actions.

      Once upon a time classy people learned to "make" and "accept" apologies. Of course, NOBODY is required to accept one, but the classy person is trained to accept it, in most cases. Only classless folks REFUSE to every apologize, for anything.

      I feel as strongly as you do about the actions towards the officers.

      Shameful!

    4. Well stated and unemotionally articulated. I too hope they learn a valuable lesson in how to treat neighbors in their community. Neighbors whose profession may sometimes include serving and protecting the citizens of SF and their businesses.

    I hope they go out of business, I hope a bum in San Francisco robs them blind and burns the restaurant down. They deserve what they get. Pure trash in the city of San Francisco which is nothing but trash guess misery loves company

  7. Shame on you!

  8. Considering they later said "Oh, but you can come by later without your uniforms, badges and guns"

    Police are on duty 24/7 they really are never "Off duty" (unless in another country) this restaurant will suffer a severe loss of income. Don't feel bad for them, they dug their own grave.

    2. Agree. Am wondering why they were so uncomfortable. People uncomfortable around LEO's are usually up to something not legal. Perhaps they should take a closer look at that restaurant.

      What if I decided that I just like their food? I'm not saying I have decided such, merely that I could. I haven't yet tried the restaurant. What if I feel like their abject apology is sufficient no matter what anyone's opinion of their level of sincerity? What makes you believe that they haven't changed their policy, given the trouble it has caused them? Am I allowed to not "take sides" if I feel like it? Am I permitted to not be part of the solution and not be conzidered part of the problem? Does that mean I approve of all they do?
