For those that don’t like SB’s that’s fine...I don’t drink their store made stuff at all, but I admit they do make the best single serve, instant coffee around, especially the Italian Roast. Best for hiking trips. I guess now I’ll need to settle for the freeze dried garbage that is sold by Nescafe and Folgers...ungh.
Here’s my feedback to them...
For a company that claims to be “inclusive” and “tolerant”, I must say that the recent comments by Howard Schultz are anything but.
Because I have a different (”diverse”) set of beliefs, my business is no longer wanted? Really? How “tolerant” are you of my beliefs in taking this position? Not at all. I wonder how some of your employees feel who hold a differing opinion? Does this mean you’re creating a hostile work environment? I dare say, yes.
Ok, your wish is my command. I will no longer be purchasing your products and I will do my level best to ensure that my friends and acquaintances are informed of your hypocritical and contradictory viewpoints.
Instead of just selling coffee, you go and piss off a large segment of your customers by telling them they’re “not good enough” to be your customers. Well played dumbasses.

I don’t plan on it (but I didn’t like them to begin with). Also have let people know I won’t accept anything from there as it will be ‘re-gifted’.
McAfee coffee at McDonalds only cost $1 and I would take it ANY day over the overpriced so-called coffee sold at Starsucks.
I’ve been to Starsucks just once, year ago....at a Target store in Bangor, Maine. My first and last visit to any Starsucks.
The McDonald’s McAfee ice coffee really hits the spot on a hot summer day.
Howard Schultz is your typical moonbat liberal....an escaped mental patient.
Boycotts don't work on businesses which start alienating part of the public from day one.
My husband loves McDonald’s ice coffee. I don’t drink ice coffee though. ;-)
you heard him... spread his message far and wide.
don't stop until they're gone.
I will be boycotting them completely. Even if I must drink warm coffee from a vending machine!
I think these organizations underestimate the number of people who believe in traditional marriage. I am not sure JC Penny’s will survive its attempts to force the gay lifestyle on the rest of us.
Sounds like this CEO would be more at home in Communist China.
So Starbucks is now ruled by radical leftist. I guess he did not learn jack$hit from the race nonsense.
Being tolerant is allowing on views even if you disagree with it. Obviously Star Bucks has no respect for religious or political points of view.
You must think their way or they do not want their business.
Well I’m not going to support a business that HATES religious and political freedom. That is just not what America is about.
Hasta La Vista Starbucks!
It makes me happy that I have never given Starbucks a dime of my money, and never will.
That CEO is a real smart at business. I never drink his overpriced coffee anyway. Even the K-cups are overpriced.
What if you tell them that you are Muslim?
Yes. McDonalds coffee is great.
Lucky for them, I will NEVER go to Starbucks or purchase any Starbucks products.
Fine by me, you arrogant, ignorant bastard.
Your coffee sucks pretty bad, anyway.
Hell of a business model...trying to sell crap and then dictating the conditions for buying the crap.
Pour it down the sewer...that's what it tastes like, anyway.
Not one red cent...
I was self employed for 20 years. Not once did I try to turn away customers. LOL!
That’s right...time to Freep them.
yeah...odd
I do not own shares, and I do not patronize his shops. The vast majority of my purchases are political, with GM, Starbucks, all TARP banks, and other liberal companies, corrupt companies, and crony capitalist companies under lifetime boycotts. On the flip side, I buy Israeli products regularly, even paying more to get “Made in Israel”, and otherwise patronize companies that I approve of ethically or politically.
