Well to put it the way it really is, good cops just aren't good news.
Here's another good link to the story:

anybody notice the giant red & black flag flying out front? thats an anarcho-communist flag. the place screams far left from the sidewalk. the sandwich board sign was even an anarchist/communist flag. no wonder they don't like cops in there!
was the manager or cop just trying to be a sh*t disturber? or does the cop really have no clue that anarchists prefer not to take their tea in the company of authority figures?
could any citizen on the wrong side of the blue line walk into a cop bar and expect to be treated like a guest?

KJ: Both, you have cops that just want to do their shift and go home and are happy that nothing happened on their shift, and then you have those that are very good at what they do and take truly bad people off the streets, or pull the families out of burning houses. Either is there for the public and have no desire or interest in harassing John Q. Public for the hell of it.

Personally, if I were that officer I'd get word out on the street that that cafe's property is no longer under protection of the police, and as long as no innocents are harmed, it is a 'free zone'.

Bigfatfurrytexan: I have to ask, where do you see anything about repercussions? Is there a part of this story I missed or is this just an assumption on your part?

I set the same standard as would any employer be it private or Government. A good employee is one that shows up and does the job they were hired to do. A bad employee will deviate from the standard S.O.P's of any job in any sector.
Not low standards, just the standards that an average person would reasonably expect when given the outline of duties of the job.

MAN, this crap gets me so angry.
He was refused a cup of coffee. The end of the world in this God forsaken police state, apparently.

Undercover cops drink coffee, too.
In what police state do you reside?
This incident happened in the US, which is not a police state, so if you are speaking of the US, I might ask you the same two questions you opened your last post with.
