Typical anti-freedom types. If it is not allowed, it must be prohibited. If I am anywhere near a Starbucks on Valentine's day, I will buy something there just to show my support for their policy. It will be interesting to see what their sales figures show for Valentine's Day.

I think Starbucks is generally overpriced, but I’ll be going there on Valentines Day.

I don’t patronize Starbucks very often, but I’ll be making 3 or 4 trip there on the 14th to show my support for their policy. Each time, I’ll be wearing a T-shirt, jacket or hat that identifies me as a gun owner and I’ll be carrying a Glock 26 or Glock 30, loaded, cocked and concealed, with a spare mag or two in my pocket.
Companies that support our freedoms need to be rewarded for it. Those that oppose our freedoms need to be punished.

I don’t drink Starbucks, I prefer Seattles Best or Tully’s.
But I will stop in on Valentines’ Day and buy a pound of italian roast.

"Starbucks allowing guns to be carried in thousands of their stores significantly increases everyone's risk of being a victim of gun violence," NGAC CEO Elliot Fineman said in a news release. "This guy must be a lot of fun to hang around. He probably wears a helmet to bed. Let's see how many shootings occur in Starbucks on Valentine's Day. There's more violence at Chuckee Cheese everyday.

I’ve never been to a Starbucks and there are none in my local area, but if there was I’d go there V day. Their policy is perfectly reasonable which is probably why the Rats don’t like it.

Starbucks does not ban guns in its stores; rather, it defers to local laws. The National Gun Victim's Action Council (NGAC) says that amounts to a pro-gun policy that endangers customers.
These people oppose gun rights because they fear retaliation for child molestation!

“Starbucks steadfast support of the NRA’s lethal pro-gun agenda damages its ‘socially conscious company’ brand,” he said. (NGAC CEO Elliot Fineman)
I would say that Starbucks IS a socially conscious company, because they do follow local laws and customs. They do not pander to socially insensitive groups like the National Gun Victim's Action Council.

I’d like to boycott Valentine’s Day itself.
Makes me wanna barf.

I’m not a Starbucks guy either but I guess I’ll give them a little business on Valentine’s Day.

Has there been a wave of shooting at Starbucks that I'm not aware of?
Maybe inner city Amish gangbangers just don't go to Starbucks or there would be.
