Gay marriage with your overpriced coffee? No thanks!

Offended by the decision of Starbucks chief Howard Schultz to support gay marriage, a Christian organization is seconding the CEO's demand that Christian shareholders sell their stock in the ubiquitous coffee chain.

"Christians and pro-family groups across the United States have contributed significantly to the economic success of Starbucks," said American Family Association President Tim Wildmon in a statement. "However, we can certainly honor Mr. Shultz's request to take our business elsewhere."

1)Go to Starbucks and order a coffee.
2)Spill the coffee and slip on it.
3)Sue the shi* out of Starbucks and donate the money to your favorite cause.

I have never bought this overpriced, overrated coffee and now never will.

That is precisely why Starbucks can do this. The people most offended never stepped foot in the place. Starbucks will regret the decision regardless.

Homeless guys hang around our local Starbucks. I’ve never bought their coffee, but have given more than a few coupons to the homeless to go in and get warmed up. Kills two birds with one coupon.

Unnatural homosexual acts can NEVER be twisted into a true marriage, no matter what 5/9 judges say.

Any more than 5/9 judges can "decide" that cows are the same as horses, or 2+2=5.

God will not be mocked. Man can fool himself, but not for long.

From the article: "Christians and pro-family groups across the United States have contributed significantly to the economic success of Starbucks," said American Family Association President Tim Wildmon in a statement.

Yes.

And what about all the OTHER pro-abort businesses such as Facebook, Google, Linked In, Verizon, the computer industry almost across the board?

(Said pro-abort but meant pro-same sex marriages)

Regardless of their stand on anything it is very puzzling how they bank a profit. It certainly can’t be their coffee, which is horrible! I think they are a fashion, like Coach purses and those platform heels that make a woman look like she has two large club feet. BTW I like the purses!

That was my original thought but I want to see what others thought. I kind of like Augie’s idea.

But giving an expired gift card to libs would be poetic. Or, I can go in in 7 months order the coffee, and when they say the card expired, just walk out.

I prefer Plan B. Order, then walk out.
