And this has something to do with Starbucks?

I did a little searching and didn’t search enough to find what exactly started it..

But Brady anti gunners asked Starbucks to ban guns. Pro gun groups showed support for Starbucks allowing guns, that’s good. Not sure why Brady targeted Starbucks 1st, probably because their the biggest coffee brand VS Caribou or Dunn Bro’s or whoever.

I’m not sure which came 1st, pro carry folks showing support and going into Starbucks enmasse or Brady folks trying to get Starbucks to ban them. My research shows pro carry folks.

But Starbucks did ask to be left alone.

I give Starbucks credit for sticking to their guns to allow carry. But I say leave it at that. Give em our business but don’t draw undue attention to it.

Yeah, it started with people open-carrying unloaded guns into Starbucks’ in California to draw attention to the asinine gun laws there.
