Visit Starbucks --- TODAY

Blah, blah, blah ...

Not a one that is a good reason to not go out, support the business and make a statement.

The thing I like best is that Starbucks is not anti-gun, and they are not pro-gun.  They have no official stance and just defer to the local laws and the Constitution.  That is the way it should be!

I agree with you 100%.  Peace and neutrality.  Honest trade with all who wish to contract.

as to the complaint about their prices, I have found that their black coffee is cheaper and better than most gas stations now. (I had plenty of time to sample both going cross country) some gas stations are charging way too much for old burned coffee that tastes like ..... well, crap. Starschmucks medium sized cup (or whatever they call it) is under $1.50. not too bad.

I went into my local Starbucks the other day, for the first time ever, I might add. I did as was asked, and stopped at the bank and picked up a couple of $2 bills.

I asked for the manager, so that I could explain to him why I was there. I had my spiel already prepared when I got there. The funny thing was that the manager had no idea what I was talking about. He knew nothing of the original protest, or the counter protest I was representing. In fairness, this is in the middle of a medium sized city, so that doesn't surprise me. He wasn't even aware of the company policy on CCW, or lack there of.

I explained the protest of the anti guns, and why I felt it necessary to step into a Starbucks for the first time ever. He said he was going to look into it (which means he said that to get away, and never thought about it again ;-) ).

I bought a hot chocolate and went about my merry way, but my shirt smelled like coffee the rest of the day, LOL.
