I don’t like coffee. So I don’t drink it (a lesson, here, for all those who are easily offended by various things). Since I don’t drink coffee, I don’t buy coffee. Since I don’t buy coffee, I don’t frequent businesses that focus on coffee. Thus, I’ve never been in a Starbucks establishment. However, I believe that on Valentine’s Day I shall find a Starbucks and buy a muffin or something. Why? Because the fascists in the anti-liberty industry have targetted Starbucks.
Boycott of Starbucks to launch on Valentine’s Day: End “open carry” gun policy
A nationwide boycott of Starbucks stores and its products will be launched on Valentine’s Day 2012. Its goal is to eliminate the risk of guns in public places and ultimately to bring sane gun laws to the U.S. … Currently, Starbucks allows guns and assault weapons to be openly carried in its stores (in 43 states) and concealed and carried in its stores (in 49 states) … “Starbucks allowing guns to be carried in thousands of their stores significantly increases everyone’s risk of being a victim of gun violence,” says Elliot Fineman, C.E.O. of the NGAC. “Open and conceal and carry are among the reasons there are 12,000 gun homicides each year in the U.S. If we had England’s gun laws we would expect 375 gun homicides each year — 97% less than we have. England’s gun laws are based on protecting public safety, ours on maximizing sales for the gun industry.”
Behold the stupidity and downright evil of the gun-grabbers. They want to control your lives, and they are willing to lie to your face to get you to give up your rights.
