I’ve had an on-again-off-again relationship with Starbucks for as long as I can remember. Their prepared drinks are spendy, but as a guy who grinds his own, I’ve found their Cafe Verona to be very versatile, and the Ethiopian Sidamo balances nicely with steamed milk.
I’d never really considered their policy on guns. Heck, it’s a coffee shop. It’s frequented by pseudo-intellectuals whose offspring are white kids with dreadlocks. Despite the lack of any signage stating so, I’d always assumed they wouldn’t be too fond of guns.
Therefore, it came as something of a pleasant surprise to find out that they’re not caving to pressure from the Brady Campaign to ban guns from their stores.
I may have to spend more money there.
