They basically told the Brady folks to go eat the yellow snow (of which they should be able to find plenty of today).
“Starbucks does not have a corporate policy regarding customers and weapons; we defer to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding this issue,” Starbucks’ customer relations department said in response to the Brady Campaign’s request.
The head of a local chapter of the Brady Campaign was disappointed by the response.
Horray for Starbucks. I’m more of a tea drinker than coffee drinker, but as soon as I dig myself out from under this mountain of snow, Bitter and I will go get an expresso shot from Starbucks. And yes, I will carry (concealed, however).
Be sure to thank Starbucks, folks, which you can do here.

That’s great news. I will certainly send a sincere thanks to Starbucks via their website as well as their cash register.
I noticed their feedback form offers Tazo tea as a topic, so you might be able to enjoy a tea and express your appreciation of their sound judgment.

Since I didn’t get any snow from the apocalypse, I’m heading out to get myself a nice big tea from Starbucks. I’m a fan of their Green Tea.

Ha. I sent them a thank you and I’ll be grabbing a bag of coffee on my way home.

I sent them a thank you too. Apparently management was smart enough to know there was no upside to getting involved in behavior modification politics. Points to Starbucks.

I sent my thanks to Starbucks. I am a Maxwell House morning guy. But I have received as gifts various Starbucks 1 pound coffees, and they were always tasty!
Thanks for the link!

I sent them a nice little ‘thank you’ stressing their support for civil and human rights….like letting law-abiding people defend themselves.

I’m surprised no one gave the Brady Folks a hard time for the rule 2 violation :)

I am happy to tolerate a wide range of viewpoints, even extreme ones, but I'm not going to tolerate nastiness, vitriol, or excessively snippy snarkiness (say that three times fast) toward the author(s) or other commenters. Regular snarkiness is fine, especially directed toward Brady Campaign folks, or certain NRA F rated politicians. You may make your case passionately, but civility is expected.
