Breaking: Starbucks CEO Calls For Boycott Of Starbucks
In a stunning development, Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks, effectively
joined the National Organization for Marriage's boycott against Starbucks. When
asked by a stockholder that he backtrack from his full-throated support of the
radical gay agenda, Schultz responded...

"It’s a free country. You can sell your shares in Starbucks and buy shares in
another company. Thank you very much." Some corporate executives respond to boycotts by either caving-in to them, hiding behind their desks until the boycott blows over or simply standing firm to their core convictions (or lack thereof) in a firm, yet polite manner. Schultz however appears to be upping the ante and is taking the unprecedented step of dictating to his customers and stockholder that if they don't like his views, they can take their patronage elsewhere. As the Blaze reported: "Schultz could have responded to this indictment with platitudes, or simply addressed it in the least offensive way possible. This, however, he did not do. Rather, he launched into a full-throated defense of the company’s pro-gay stance." While many people don't support or participate in boycotts out of general principle, in this particular case, the CEO of Starbucks is making an impassioned plea... if you don't like my views, don't buy my stock or my coffee. Out of respect, people might consider taking Schultz at his word and doing as he wishes. The number to the Starbucks Corporate office, by the way, is (800) 235-2883. For those who are so inclined, call them and let them know that out of respect to Mr. Schultz's wishes, you will no longer be purchasing Starbucks Coffee or buying stock in the corporation. |
