While I'm not a fan of coffee, especially overpriced, I think I'll stop in on Feb. 14th and buy something and thank them for their Pro-2nd amendment stance.

I'm not into the whole artsy/fartsy/look-at-my-coffee thing, but I'll go buy a cup on that day for sure.

I don't drink coffee, but my wife drinks it like a fish and Starbucks is her coffee of choice, so nice to know about the companies Pro Gun stance

I always thought of Starbucks as an artsy sort of crowd. Glad to hear they support the 2nd Amendment

Waffle house is anti-gun. All of them are posted. (not legally though).

Look at the types of guns listed, it will make you even sicker.

This is what they had to say about the AR15 rifle (as they show a pic of an AR pistol):

AR-15 Semi-automatic rifle.
Magazines hold 10,20,30, or 100 bullets.
Can fire up to 13 bullets a second.

Same MO as the pro-drug-war loonies. Lies and stupidity. In the end we, as taxpayers and freedom loving constitutionalists, pay out the a$$ in both money and freedom for them to fight these domestic "wars". I don't care for Starbucks and they are across town, but I'm buying some coffee from them on the 14th!

I don't drink coffee, but I'll be sure to stop by and get a frozen strawberry lemonade.

By the way, Starbucks isn't necessarily pro-gun, they just choose to follow along with regular state carry law and not prevent folks from carrying. But now I'm being nit-picky. They should still be supported for their stance.

I'm not a big Starbuck's fan but I'll buy some on the 14th. I would go broke if I had to buy all the coffee I drink every day. Thank goodness our office provides it.

At the Clinton Starbucks, I've mainly seen businessmen and women; I'll definitely try to stop by on the 14th to help off-set anything those anti-gun whackjobs cost the company. Cups, on the other hand, is a haven for artsy "hipsters".

Is the Clinton Waffle House posted? I've searched all over the Ridgeland location, and couldn't find a sign of any sorts.

EDIT: I just read the article from the first post. I'm laughing out loud, I think the people in the apartment next to me think I must be nuts! But, I'd be crying if it weren't for laughing...

Well, for you fella's who go to Starbucks if you havent seen all those Ladies and Gentlemen walking around with "Assault Rifles" your going to the wrong Starbucks. They are disguised, the way you tell is they look like laptops.

must be that Magpul folding G18 SBR(I don't recall the exact name of it) that was designed to look like a laptop battery or whatever, that I've been hearing about for years but never heard of anyone actually using/owning? if thats the case then there are tons of them in coffee shops and cafes across the freakin country!!

Went to Starbucks this AM. I'm in downtown Charleston, SC for a meeting. Explained it to my coworkers,but no one cared. They all think I'm that weird gun guy from MS anyway. They're all Yankees and Kalifornia people.
