Starbucks CEO: If You are Anti-Gay Marriage, ‘You can Sell Your Shares’

Two words: “Dunkin’ Donuts.”

Their prices are better, their coffee is far superior, and their CEO isn’t dragging them into oblivion with a series of ill-advised socio-political statements. They greet you warmly, serve up the product, and you’re on your way.

[ScottinVA]

“The world is a f’d-up, cup of liberal piss.(a Starby fav)”

One venti macchiato whipped with two shots of liberal piss, coming right up! That’ll be $8.05, please, you homophobic racist! ;-)

[maddog55]

Starbucks is about the worse tasting coffer there is and paying 3 or times the price for a cup is insanity...

[grania]

those corporate executives are getting rich on the backs of the poor

It would be surprising if many poor people drink their swill. Starbucks only locates in trendy areas, so to some degree they self-discriminate to cull their clientele.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

If you feel, respectfully, that you can get a higher return than the 38% you got last year, it’s a free country “You can sell your shares in Starbucks and buy in another company. Thank you very much.”

[NathanR]

That’s nice, however there are only 3 Dunkin Donuts in the whole L.A. area.

[Joe Boucher]

hey senore’ Schultz ,
Take your snotty high and mighty attitude,
your overpriced too strong coffee and shove it.

[pepsionice]

Twenty years ago....Starbucks had four-star coffee and everyone else had two-star coffee. In the past decade...everyone improved (even McDonalds today...has premium coffee). They might have held some advantage in the 1990s but it’s just another gimmick today and frankly...over-priced. If you buy the same quality coffee for sixty-percent of what Starbucks charges...why waste your money?

As people realize this...the sales gimmick will decrease and I think within the next decade...around thirty-percent of the Starbucks shops will disappear. They might still have a hold on airport situations but I think their growth period is finished.

[who knows what evil?]

Never had a cup of Starbucks; never will. Never owned an Apple product; never will. I get thru my day just fine.

I wonder what this pinhead thinks about Mozilla’s CEO who was fired for a small donation in support of a group committed to traditional marriage.

[ZULU]

Schultz, you idiot, I don’t have shares in Star-Sucks BECAUSE I don’t support gay marriage AND I don’t drink your overpriced insipid coffee.

[9thLife]

And when they do, the CEO will be culpable in the lawsuit filed by the remaining shareholders. Ditto for that loudmouth idiot that runs Apple Computer.

Oh, Karma is sweet.

I am grateful when liberals waste their money, but how does supporting SSM improve shareholder value?

[petercooper]

Why no Starbucks locations in the Hood?

[Travis McGee]

[lowbridge]

How about voting for a new CEO at the next stockholders meeting?

[Old Grumpy]

“I do not patronize Starbucks . . . “

I don’t either. Never have, never will.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

It would be surprising if many poor people drink their swill. Starbucks only locates in trendy areas, so to some degree they self-discriminate to cull their clientele.

Oh, I know, but that's what the libs would say if Chik-fil-a raised its prices to a commensurate level.

[I want the USA back]

I will not go to Starbucks ever again.
