re: #348 Dark_Falcon

Not really, though I’d expect them to respect Starbucks’ decision. And at first they did ask, and Starbucks politely told them ‘no’. So then they issued a demand and mounted several protests, whereupon Starbucks made clear they did not take a position on guns but simply did not consider customers exercising concealed carry in their establishments. So then the gun-banners called for the boycott. So your scenario has in fact already happened and the result was escalation by the anti-gun crowd. They’re sore about losing the Heller and MacDonald cases before the Supreme Court and so are seeking to push private businesses into not allowing guns. This is not some nasty action by the right-wing: It’s a nasty action by the left-wing that is drawing a non-nasty right-wing response.

You may not agree with the “gun banners” concerns about open carry violence, but their actions are hardly “nasty.” A one day boycott of Starbucks? Big deal. MBF fail.

It’s certainly nothing like boycotting a store permanently because one of its spokespeople is a lesbian.
