Just hearing about yet another racially charged incident at Whole Foods on 27th street in Oakland... The latest involves a paying customer and editor of the Movement newspaper named Adam Turner..
He was recently eating lunch at WF when he saw a homeless person with mental health challenges in distress outside the store. Turner went over to help him..

The homeless man was having an episode when Turner saw a security guard and asked for assistance. The guard told him the only help needed was a call to 9-11. When Turner explained calling the police wasn't necessary, the guard cursed at him and told him to F-- Off..

When Turner told him his response was unprofessional, the guard pepper sprayed him and called him a f....N---..

This is the 3rd or 4th incident I've heard about over at Whole Foods.. What is going on with that place? Have other folks had similar encounters?? If this place has so much animosity toward patrons, why is it still in biz?
