Starbucks...they don't care
Sorry Folks, I can only pass this on. Words fail me. Recently, Royal Marines in Iraq/Afganistan, wrote to Starbucks because they wanted to let them know how much they liked their coffees, and to request that they send some of it to the troops there.
Starbucks replied, telling the Marines “thank you” for their support of their business, but that Starbucks does not support the conflicts, nor anyone in it, and that they would not send the troops their brand of coffee.
So as not to offend Starbucks, maybe we should support them by NOT buying any of their products! I feel we should get this out in the open.
I know these conflicts might not be very popular with some folks, but that doesn't mean we don't support the boys on the ground, fighting street-to-street and, house-to-house.
IN MEMORY OF ALL THE TROOPS WHO HAVE DIED, SO THAT WE MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE !
Also, don't forget that when the Twin Trade Towers were hit, the fire fighters and rescue workers went to Starbucks because it was close by for water for the survivors and workers, and Starbucks CHARGED THEM! ! !
They used to have stores on several US military bases but were closed down & kicked off because of this stance showing so little regard or support.
There are 227 Starbucks stores across the UK, and there's no doubt that our soldiers would get the same response from this company in them, so lets show them how despicable their actions are. I never liked their coffee either
