Well it's a start. Now let's wait for them to pay taxes in the UK.

Good for Starbucks. One small step......

I enjoyed reading it - but did anyone else read the comments underneath? I had that familiar feeling I get whenever I come across American's defending the right to bear arms - where I begin to feel like laughing out loud, then feel embarrassed and then that growing feeling of disbelief. a couple of great attacks on 'liberals' as well! Good luck with that mr CEO - and yes, pay tax here as well. I promise not to take a gun into their cafe's if they pay tax

Yes, I read many of those comments before giving up in disbelief at the lack of insight about guns. The gun laws were created for a different era - when will they ever realise that carrying weapons is not going to solve the problem of stopping random murder sprees?

I wanted to say that 'intelligent gun-owners' is an oxymoron but I CBA signing on to their site, and I doubt if many of the toters would understand the word!
Yes, I know some people belong to gun clubs, etc. but I doubt if they carry their weapons into coffee shops.
