Now it's Starbucks, but they're only "suggesting" you keep your firearms at home. Though I don't go to Starbucks, I understand they're a big outfit. Their "suggesting" reminds me of how it went with cigarettes. Started with something like "We appreciate if you don't smoke here." We'll see if the NRA responds. Maybe they figure they should keep their traps shut on this one. Maybe Starbucks wants to try to avoid a massacre like that one the gun nut committed in Seattle a few years ago at Cafe Racer. ------------------------------- The whole thing is stupid. Let's assume some nutcase decides he's going to shoot up a bunch of people. He decides Starbucks would be a good place because it's always crowded. Maybe he's even a ****ed off former employee of Starbucks. So, he gathers his gun, drives to the local Starbucks, gets to the door and ..... Damm! He can't go in. They don't allow guns. Kind of like the guy who shot up the theater in Colorado. Oops, he picked a theather that specifically didn't allow guns. Kind of proves the theory that those who are rendered defenseless are easy targets. |

I suppose someone could take the 1964 civil rights act to the SCOTUS but it hasn't happened yet. Restaurants are covered under the Public Accommodations section of the Civil Rights Law of 1964. That would be the law that drove the southern white Democratic racists out of that party and into the waiting arms of the GOP, where they and their descendents still reside. If someone, anyone, came into the restaurant and started to make other customers uneasy through their actions then that someone could be asked to leave. |
