Getta cuppa Joe at Starbucks on Valentine's Day

The National Gun Victims Action Council has called for a boycott of Starbucks on Valentine's Day, February 14. This hoplophobic organization is trying to convince Starbucks to post their stores against lawful citizen carry of firearms. These folks are laboring under the illusion that signs will prevent criminal acts.

The fact is that as handgun ownership and carry have increased in the United States, the violent crime rate has gone down, as Professor John Lott documents in his well researched books, More Guns mean Less Crime.

Lawful gun carriers and owners across the fruited plain are responding with a BUY-COTT at Starbucks on Valentine's Day, with plans to make a purchase, and thank Starbucks for their "non-policy" concerning guns. you can thank the corporate offices HERE.
