[h=1]Starbucks bows to 'boycott' pressure, will let staff wear Black Lives Matter gear[/h]

Starbucks is now sponsoring a terrorist group

so I imagine they also can wear Confederate flag pans as well?

[FONT=&quot]So employees should be able to wear MAGA pins or hats right

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]Can we wear "ALL LIVES MATTER" shirts at work

[/FONT][FONT=&quot]it is a very BAD IDEA for companies to take political stances on issues

So much of the country has gone NUTS!

Pussies. Make an exception for a terrorist organization that advocates killing the police. Real smart.

 

[Mr_Mark]

dollar is the most important to them, thats what they are really bowing down too

I don’t know but I do know Mike Lindell, a Trump supporter, is doing pretty good with the My Pillow products and he operates out of Minnesota to boot. He’s currently selling 3 inches of wonderful in a commercial being broadcasted...for a mattress top of course.

I try to see some middle ground and hopefully since they allow this WILL ALSO ALLOW A SHIRT THAT SAYS "ALL LIVES MATTER".. But I'd lay 10 to 1 they will not! All this type stuff will eventually end in in court, we gotta know that. In reality, folks like me just want to live in peace and would not wear that shirt, but it's simply not right.

Which is my biggest argument against BLM. Good black are hurting their own cause in the long run. Of course those in their late teens and 20's find this something they can rally too, with little thought! And it's not to say their intentions are wrong, but over the line.

Nike and Starbucks are two brands I decided to not support many years ago.

I think you can add Amazon to the list now too

 

[CaptainLee]

Mob I haven't supported starbucks from its' start. I'm actually enjoying seeing them getting heat from BLM and others. It's been wildly successful, but certainly a company I'd enjoy seeing failing.

This is a very good point. This decision by Starbucks is driven entirely by their evil desire to maximize profits. No business should ever do that, they should always put the people first.
