I think Casanova's point is that we simply don't have all the facts.
There is a timeline here.
Supposedly the manager asked the men to leave - and they refused. The cops were called. That is something I remember reading, did that actually occur? I don't know. We only have video when the cops actually came to the establishment, but you guys want to paint this brilliant manifesto as if you have the last 30 minutes figured out.
If you are asked to leave for not being a paying customer, you're obligated to leave. That is simply a fact - and you're within your right to do such. Now given, Starbucks is an establishment that almost encourages sitting around and using their wifi for 6 hours after ordering one $2.50 drink. Regardless, they have the right to ask anyone to leave for reasons of not being a customer, that is simply a fact. However, if the manager or employees never warned the man before calling the cops, that is an obvious no-no.
Either way, I stand by the statement that it seems incredibly stupid for the manager to do such a thing - but I can also freely admit that there is a time period in which we do not know the details. To declare otherwise is just as ignorant as the manager was.
