I'm pretty sure he said his views had been 'evolving', just like a lot of people's. If it's something that takes time for you to understand and accept, that's fine. At least he took the time to think about it, see different views (such as his daughters'), and come to a conclusion.

at least for today he does. try again tomorrow, when he'll 'simply acknowledge' the existence of the unemployed.

This kid is being suspended for sexual harassment. Not for being annoying, disruptive, or not respecting his teacher. Sure, the story might have played out exactly like you said, but tying the words 'sexual harassment' to the punishment is going too far. He's 6 years old. That might be considered 'harassment' in a 6-year-old's eyes, but the teachers and adults responsible for his suspension should have known that there was nothing sexual behind it. He's singing a song played on the radio constantly. He memorized the words, that doesn't mean he understands what they mean. Even if he's a consistently disruptive student, bringing sex into the picture is only going to cause problems later on.

Here's the thing, though. A lot of people are going to see this menu and assume every barista is trained to know how to make them. Sure, a lot of them are pretty simple to make, and yes, Starbucks puts a lot of focus on customer service. But they put just as much focus on speed. And having people in line getting mad when someone doesn't know how to make a “Nutella”, or getting upset because Pumpkin Spice is seasonal, is a waste of time.

In Texas, they're cake toppers.

I wish it had gone that way with my parents. He's a really lucky kid.

Him being kicked out of a restaurant isn't exactly helping the cause, in my opinion. I completely agree that he's an idiot, but he wasn't in there to discriminate, and now he has all the more reason to dislike gay people.
