ROS sends us a link to an article to an article in the Sacramento Bee<\/a> which announces a protest against Starbucks for it’s “pro-gun” policy. According to the article, Starbucks doesn’t have a pro-gun policy, they just don’t have an anti-gun policy;<\/p>\n

Starbucks’ compliance with the National Rifle Association’s Pro-Gun Agenda was exposed in 2010 when members of the “open carry” movement began meeting in popular chains, such as California Pizza Kitchen, Peets, IKEA, Disney and Starbucks openly carrying their handguns and assault rifles. (Types of Guns)<\/p>\n

To protect their customers and employees, all of the retail chains\u2014except for Starbucks\u2014 banned guns from being carried in their stores<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So apparently, if you just allow the law to run it’s course and don’t adhere to the anti-gun fascists world view, you’re in “compliance with the NRA’s pro-gun agenda”. Or maybe, you just support the Constitution.<\/p>\n

[S]ays Elliot Fineman, CEO of the NGAC. “Open and conceal and carry are among the reasons there are 12,000 gun homicides each year in the U.S. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’d like to see the proof that law abiding citizens carrying weapons in compliance with their local laws are responsible for those “gun homicides”. My guess is that there have been no homicides committed by lawful citizens in Starbucks, and Starbucks probably wants to maintain that record by keeping criminals guessing about whether their customers are carrying firearms.<\/p>\n

Starbucks has the legal right to ban guns but despite having been petitioned by thousands, asked at a shareholder meeting, and a direct appeal made to their Board, Starbucks clings to this policy that puts millions of Americans at risk every day and encourages the spread of guns being carried in public.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Starbucks also has a legal right to allow guns in their establishment and the right to ignore noisy Leftist crybabies. Personally, i don’t like Starbucks’ coffee much, but given the ire they raise among the hippies, I’ll choke more of the stuff down just to piss off the smelly, fungus-ridden Leftists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
