I bought coffee from Starbucks last February for the first time in probably 10 years. I went there because it was about 50 feet from the building I wasn't supposed to leave. ;) I wanted coffee really bad. Gave them an obscene amount for a cup of the plainest coffee they had. I got a dirty look from the clerk and a sorry cup of coffee.
Never been in one and never will. The coffee pot on the counter makes a fine cup of coffee. It always amazes me the people that buy crap like that whether it is coffee from starbucks, fast food or shop at the most expensive grocery chain and then they wonder why their broke all of the time and can never get ahead.
I've never bought any coffee from them....but I don't drink coffee either. I'd put them in the same boat as Face Book and Twitter.....just trouble a brewing.
Ok B.E.G.....I hate 'em for things that are real. Like beheadings, burning alive, and bullets to the back of the heads of innocent people. Oh yeah.....I forgot gang-rape of young innocent girls. None of that is made up. All well documented.
Are those things real enough for you? No.....I guess not.
Sundowner, I’m not arguing that terrorists don’t exist and do terrible things. I’m addressing the falsehoods contained in the original post.
1) Muslims use toilet paper 2) Starbucks never said they were hiring 10,000 Muslims 3) the story that the original post was based on is nearly two and a half years old.
But, as to no surprise, some folks will take whatever opportunity they can to share their ignorance with likeminded folks.
If one believes Bible prophecy, some day they will be killed by the hundreds of thousands. It says the blood will flow as deep as a horse's bridle. The battle between God and evil. God wins.
You may not believe it, but that's what it says......
I agree with you, JTV. To hell with radical islamists. Who has said anything different? The OP did not start this thread saying anything about radical islamists.
Show me any quote or any material that says Starbucks committed to hiring “10,000 Muslims.”
The statement was that they wanted to hire 10,000 refugees. Less than half the refugees coming into this country are Muslim. Christians and Buddhists and non-affiliated types flee war, violence, persecution and discrimination too.
So for the third time, Starbucks never said they would hire 10,000 Muslims. I know...”Starbucks commits to hiring 10,000 displaced refugees, half of which are likely to be Christian” doesn’t make nearly as good a meme as “Starbucks is hiring 10,000 Muslims.” They also committed to hiring 10,000 veterans.
Figured it’s worthwhile for someone to at least share the facts on here. Y’all can carry on with the (old) fake news now.
Well.....the FBI announced they broke up a terrorist attack that was to happen in Cleveland on the 4th. They will be providing details later today. Be curious who the perp(s) is and where he/she/they came from.
My brother, a Horticultural specialist served on an anti-terrorism panel concerning food coming into the country. At a meeting in DC they told them about a cell they broke up that was close to taking out 7 elementary schools, all at the same time, on the same day. We will see another deadly attack. It is inevitable as we watch our borders dissolve. God help the gays when Sharia law hits. I have taught Muslims and their views on gays are very firm, kill them.
Remind me again, JTV, what a deranged American that wanted to commit violence has to do with Starbucks pledging to hire 10,000 refugees or the false claim that Muslims don't use toilet paper?
""^^^. Did you REALLY vote for Obama ???? (TWICE)""
BB,
Yes I did, and changed my mind about Obama/Democrats during his 2nd term. It's ok to change your mind/opinion in this country. Do you really support Muslims coming into our country? Even as a Democrat I didn't want them here.
That’s because you’re a bigot... you don’t dislike radical Islamic terrorists....... you dislike all Muslims.......
As long as someone comes to the USA LEGALLY..... I don’t care what race or religion they are....
I fully agree that it’s OK to change your mind..... I just can’t believe you voted for Obama twice before you changed your mind about him !!!!! (Isn’t he Muslim??)
Islam is fine as long as it is an ineffective (uber small) political minority. Unfortunately, it has proven itself incompatible with western culture when it becomes locally, regionally or nationally viable. That is not bigoted to say and, in fact, it is rather cruelly selfish to pretend that dynamic is not reality.

Nut job homegrown US Citizen who expressed a desire to join Al Qaeda on line..... didn’t want to carry out an attack himself but volunteered to scope out the area....... mental. Trump hater.
