Starbucks seems an unlikely dueling ground in the national debate over guns, but the ubiquitous coffee chain Friday will once again find itself squarely in the cross hairs in the battle between gun control and gun rights advocates.

Sorry. When the CEO says that he does not want the business of Christians who support traditional marriage, my business does not go there.
