Just had to send this
Recently Marines in Iraq 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 war, 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 not support them by
buying any of their products! I feel we should get this out in the
open. I
know this war 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.
If you feel the same as I do then pass this along, or you can
discard it and no one will never know.
Thanks very much for your support. I know you'll all be there again
when I
deploy once more.
Semper Fidelis.

PLEASE DON'T DELETE THIS . . ALLOW IT TO BE
PASSED TO ALL IN MEMORY OF ALL THE TROOPS WHO HAVE DIED SO THAT WE
MAY HAVE
THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE TO SUPPORT THEM OR NOT! ! !
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! ! !
JUST A NOTE TO THIS; STARBUCKS HAD STORES ON SEVERAL MILITARY BASES
IN THE
UNITED STATES. THEY ARE NOW BEING REMOVED BECAUSE OF THIS. GO GET 'EM
AMERICA. STAND-UP FOR OURSELVES!
Who the hell owns Starbucks??? The same people that own all the motels, and convenient stores?
