Protesters marched through Seattle, Washington, on July 16, in a demonstration calling for a boycott of the Starbucks coffee chain.

Footage of the march shows protesters chanting “we ain’t shopping at Starbucks no more.” Protesters called for Starbucks to cut all ties with and support for Seattle Police Department during the demonstration.

Starbucks’s first store opened in Seattle in 1971, and since then the company has grown to become the largest coffee chain in the world. However the business has come under fire for a series of racially charged incidents.

Welcome to the club. Starbucks has been on my Do Not Buy list for many years.

I wonder if any of these rich morons are double guessing their backing of byedone.

In the end it’s the $$ that speaks and many may be beginning to realize there is NO pleasing the left and their minions..antiffa, blm..etc.

I would include la raza but i don’t think they’re thrilled with blm.

Maybe we can squeeze some more Hispanic votes out of all this

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who thinks they must roast their beans on Mercury. That is the nastiest, most bitter...............!

Kudos on giving your hard earned money to the enemy.

Liberals eating their own. You have to be 150% on agreement with the leftists agenda to avoid becoming a target.

One cup convinced me to never go back. That was about 15 years ago.

Today’s leftists are the best leftists ever.

They change the required talking points at least once a day.

If you don’t recite them like a robot you become an enemy of the people.

Best of all, they have no one dictator in charge of the talking points, which means they get to fight between themselves over the latest Holy Writ.

That means according to leftist doctrine, every human being on the planet is evil and must be destroyed.

You just can’t make up this stuff.

I’m not a fan. We have a local place called Elijah’s that is AWESOME. Starbucks is burnt and thus extra bitter, even with half cream and two sugars on top of caramel flavoring.

At Elijah’s, I can get a Hazelnut latte for the same price and not have to add extra sugar.

“they are not my enemy.”

Oh yes they are. The money you give them they turn around and give to Dem politicians, Planned Parenthood, and BLM.

Get your hibiscus tea somewhere else. Unless of course your okay with supporting Dem politicians, Planned Parenthood, and BLM.

I don’t give my money to leftists. It’s a shame you fund the Democrats one cup at a time. If you were really conservative you would realize Starbucks is working against every conservative value there is. There are plenty of other options to their over priced, over marketed crap. Only the gullible spend ten times too much on a beverage from a Rat infested hellhole.
