The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence: is whining again. This time it is about the people legally “open carrying” weapons in Starbucks stores. Oh my what shall we do now… legal citizens, carrying legal weapons in a business. I think everyone should buy 2 coffees a day from Starbucks (one for you and one for your gun), to show your support for their refusal to ban guns in the stores. Brady Campaign whining:
But Starbucks is refusing to prohibit the open carrying of firearms in its stores, despite protests from loyal customers. Because of Starbucks’ refusal, the Brady Campaign has teamed up with CREDO Action to tell Starbucks to keep guns out of its coffee shops. The practice of packing heat in places like Starbucks is intimidating and could be potentially dangerous to our families and communities – and it must be stopped. It’s everyone’s right to sit in a restaurant or coffee shop with their families without intimidation or fear of guns, either concealed or openly carried. Under the law, Starbucks has the right to adopt a gun-free policy, with an exception for uniformed police officers. Such a policy can easily be implemented in most cases by putting up signs at store entrances. We need to tell Starbucks to bar guns in its stores. These individuals who have been carrying guns into Starbucks have all the firepower of a SWAT team, and none of the law enforcement training.
