“Gay rights” are a “right” yet bearing arms, which is enumerated in the Constitution, is not a right to these loons. Screw them! I am finished with Starbucks for good.

A woman needs to call Starbucks HQ and ask if they are going to stop her, a soccer mom who is being stalked by an ex, from carrying a gun into the store. Would love to hear how they answer that.

How does a prissy, overpriced, little one shingle jo maker business policy trump the 2nd Amendment, and affect my gun carry rights.

oh,......it doesn’t.

Who goes to Starbucks anyway. MacDonalds has much better coffee.

Are they going to put up no gun signs, or is this just a request for people to stop the open carry demonstrations?

No more free compost coffee grinds for me.

I have NEVER spent a dime in a SB and now I will actively encourage others to stay away.

"Add this to my list of places I will never shop again. "

I never did like their coffee anyway.
And everything else is priced sky-high anyway.

And now it's "gun-free" which means people can be gunned down without danger to the Killer.

Happy Hunting!

Indeed. Sad to see that this comes after the massacre in the Gun Free Zone in DC yesterday. Lesson NOT learned.

So some nut can come in and wipe out everyone since nobody would be armed. Makes sense.

I don’t do Starbucks, tastes like dirt.

If you are carrying concealed and doing it correctly, then this policy shouldn’t be a problem.

If you’re printing, then you’re not doing it right.

So what’s the problem?

What about the drive-thru?

Honestly, if you carry, carry concealed. Concealed means concealed. If you're doing it right, nobody will know you're carrying concealed, least of all some unshaven barista named 'Topher' who's got sleeve tattoos and shower curtain rings in his ears.

Open carry is for goof-ass twits with something to prove. If your state doesn't allow concealed carry but allows open carry, that's not Starbuck's fault. Change your state laws or make coffee at home. Starbuck's is private property. Respect their wishes and breeze right past their 'NO WEAPONS ALLOWED' sign while carrying concealed. If they spot you carrying and ask you to leave, you need to leave.

There, problem solved.

Obviously liberals yelled and screamed at corporate and conservatives did not offer support. That is my guess anyway.
