A Starbucks Coffee in Studio City is drawing attention after the store removed all customer seating. Only to-go orders are allowed at the 10965 Ventura Blvd. location of the popular coffee shop, as indicated by a sign posted to the door.
While Starbucks did not directly attribute the decision to any one cause, a spokesperson implied that the seating was removed due to a safety concern and that the decision was made at that specific store, and not at the corporate level.
Customers tell KTLA they regularly witness baristas being harassed and threatened by people who appear to be homeless.
"There have been people throwing things at the window, the baristas being harassed,” said a regular customer.

Homeless person was trying to pick fights with me and other people at the bank ATM the other day. Just going about your daily routines is such a chore now because you're always watching your back waiting for something to happen.

Our state is now down the rabbit hole so far, it's just about to be unrepairable. Clearly due to the people who govern this good state of our. From the law officials to mayors of our cities and definately to the past Governors far bk as governor terminator. Also when you dont have affortabke housing and controlable rent reform, allow yr state to take on sanuary provisions there a chance you get higher crime. Lord know we had enough already here, and now other courties have join in on the crime spree adventurers. Its not only in black and brown neighborhoods any longer, its now in everbodie's neighborhood you can't even walk yr dog safely anymore. And if it's not in your neighborhood yet count your blessings and just give it another month and you be saying the now famous "this doesn't happen in our neighborhood". It does now so stop it. 🤨

I solved the homeless problem, open 3 tent cities/encampments out in the desert, one for the mentally ill, one for those who cause trouble, and one for normies. Staff them with police, have cafeteries, give them computers to entertain themselves, have pool tables, ping pong, etc., and get them out of our cities! Have daily busses going to the camps so those who return to the city can be taken back. This is the only solution I can think of that won't cost the taxpayers billions, and I think it's fair? 👍😎✌🗽

We should legalize drugs, and get rid of the criminal activity that surrounds it, not to mention empty our prisons, and jails so more degenerates can be housed instead. Illegal drugs are big money so we all need to be on the same page to demand they stop penalizing people for bad choices, and rehabilitate those who want it with the money used to fight the war. 👍😎✌🗽

A different solution is being implemented - that is to create smart cities for the affluent where you have everything you need within the sector - so you never have to leave because it’s all within the secured region. There’s Telosa in the US, Floating City in South Korea, Neom in Saudi Arabia, Akon City in Senagal, The Line also on Saudi Arabia. Instead of removing the homeless, those with resources will remove themselves from greater society. They have an airport, hospital, everything- life in a safe bubble.
