I posted this on my Facebook page to let all my friends and family know that I support the constitution as does Starbucks.

Should we start a SB location roll call thread?
Anybody gonna venture to the one in Camas?
I actually refer to Starbucks as, because you have got to be one to pay that much for coffee
That being said, they will get some of my money also, just to make sure that the loss they might feel from being boycotted by some of those NAGS is offset by a 2nd A supporter.
I think that kind of talk is illegal in Seattle bro...just sayin
Charon, were you thinking noon? I could probably make that.
I'll be at the SW Jefferson location near BMW/MINI of Portland.
Also, just read on another forum that people are suggesting that when you buy something at Starbucks, you use a $2 bill. (One, to be noticed - while there are plenty in circulation, and they are still released in to circulation, they are fairly rare to be spent; two, to make the obvious reference to the second amendment.)
I think I'll be stopping by my bank to clean 'em out of $2 bills.
Not to rain on anyone's parade, but I get the feeling Starbucks tolerates open carry more than advocates for it,
Well, so what? The bottom line is that the store still caters to all customers. They don't have to endorse or advocate anything. They just serve patrons.
This idea that everyone or every entity must swear some kind of fealty to a cause is nonsense. If the person/store simply goes about their business without discriminating, that is actually the best position of all, as it suggests the cause is simply normal behavior.
I don't think there is anything wrong with Starbucks serving their customers equally. Since I'm a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment, of course I'm ok with people carrying in public. My point is, they don't seem to want to be involved one way or the other. Some of the attention this is generating is giving some people the impression that Starbucks is pro-gun, when they're actually just neutral. Like you said, they're merely going about business as usual and not discriminating either way. They're not like, "Sure, come open carry and use our coffee shops to make political statements". People shouldn't get the wrong impression. That's all I'm saying.
