Starbucks Reining in on "Marriage Equality Rights"

Geez can't the left just stop?  They are attempting to ruin everything! 

Now they've gone over the top.  Starbucks hosted a "National Marriage Equality Day".  What the heck?  It was a bust - Read more below.  But it's far more than that now to me.  So much for my White Chocolate Mochas I use to get there. And pumpkin scones.  Pumpkin lattes.  I will learn to make these on my own.   Who will recommend a good Espresso machine?

Anyway, if Cheesecake Factory follows suit, you all are in real trouble.  Because lattes and Cheesecake were made just for me...you just get to enjoy them. :)

The article lists a website of "participating businesses".  You will find the list here:  isupportmarriageequality.com.  But just in case you were wondering they include among others: 

 JC Penney, Starbucks,  Amazon.com, Southwest Airlines, Google, General Mills, Apple, Abercrombie & Fitch, Ford, Best Buy, Kimberly-Clarke (Huggies, Kleenex, etc), Macy's, Marshall's, Sears, Target, T.J. Maxx, and others.

Gay Activists ’National Marriage Equality Day’ at Starbucks Has Low Turnout

Following the massive hoopla surrounding fast-food chain Chick-fil-A over its gay marriage stance last week, pro-same-sex marriage activists hoped to show support for Starbucks, a company that has come out in favor of gay rights. But, unfortunately for those organizing the “National Marriage Equality Day” on Tuesday, turnout was relatively low — at least when compared to the number of Americans who came out to laud Chick-fil-A just days earlier.

Prior to the event, The Christian Post explained the intentions behind the initiative:

Gay marriage activists and their supporters plan to consume more than their daily allowance of caffeine on Tuesday by visiting their local Starbucks in an effort to challenge last week’s “Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day” that was staged by pro-family supporters to demonstrate their support for the company’s stance on traditional marriage.
Tuesday’s event is being dubbed as “National Marriage Equality Day” and Starbucks was chosen because they offer benefits to the partners of same-sex relationships.
