From NBC BAY AREA : Coffee Shop in Oakland Refuses to Serve Police Officers , by Sergio Quintana
A controversy in brewing at a coffee shop in Oakland, where police officers are not welcome.
The business, called Hasta Muerte Coffee, will not serve officers in uniform and turned away an officer a few weeks ago. The shop is an employee-owned coop.
Workers at Hasta Muerte did not respond to requests for comments on the policy to refuse service to police officers.
But on the shop's Instagram account, there's a photo posted with text that reads in Spanish : " Talk to your neighbors, NOT the police. " The post continues about an exchange with a uniformed police officer on February 16th and very clearly it states " We have a policy of asking police to leave for the physical and emotional safety of our customers and ourselves. "
The Oakland Police officers Association sent the shop a letter, asking to open a dialog about the policy.
The sergeant who was turned away from the shop a few weeks ago said he was surprised but walked out without incident and without coffee. He said he's looking forward to talking to the shop owners and building a better relationship with them and the community.
Hasta Muerte, which means Until Death in Spanish, is located in Oakland's
FRUITVALE district.
FROM the Clinton News Network on the same story :
The sergeant involved is the president of the Latino Police Officer's Association of Alameda County. 

More of that " sanctuary city " policy that the Mayor of Oakland, Nancy " Mow MY yard " Pelosi
AND WTF, is all for ! Guess the police should have sent a " HISPANIC " swishy-walker

police officer to the shop ! Then the shop COULD NOT HAVE REFUSED SERVICE !

Like the Colorado baker's found out the hard way !

And mebbe the police officers can catch a case of " Blue Flu ' if the place is ever robbed or has any other need for police service !
