Pssst! - I hate to break it to you, Mr. Helmke, but if you're in the same restaurant or coffee shop as I, I AM carrying a gun, but it's concealed and you have no clue. Now tell me, Mr. Helmke, just how intimidated were you about something you had no clue about? How much danger did I put you in? And they call those of us who conceal-carry paranoid!


Well said.. ;D

I may have to rethink that whole "Starbucks sux" thing.
I still don't like their over priced coffee though.

Its simple numbers for them.  Pissing off gun owner would mean more lost sales then telling brady where to stick it.

I don't like coffee, but a friend told me that their Hot cocoa is great, and they DO have some good looking overpriced brownies and cookies....

Starbucks still sux.  But I'm gonna make it a point to purchase at least one cuppa just as a show of appreciation.  Truth is I make a better cuppa at home.

I think I will have to learn to like coffee as to support Starbucks and their "Common Sense" gun stance. It's common sense to defer to the existing laws when it comes to carry in my business. WOW! "We defer to the fed, state and local laws in regards to guns."
