The Second Amendment Does Not Apply at Starbuck's

Read editor's comment below the article. Please add to the discussion.

Posted 09.30.13 by Jennifer Kruse, TPNN Contributor

Growing up my mom would say, “Get a Kleenex and blow your nose” when she noticed my constant sniffing. On special occasions, my brothers and I were offered a “Coke” at dinner. It wasn't until I was out of the house that I realized that my family (and probably yours) referred to some everyday products by their brand name. We weren't told to grab a tissue or offered a soda no, Kleenex and Coke had gotten us to buy into their marketing.


Today, I see it going one step further with Starbucks. They aren't just “coffee”, they are an experience, a lifestyle. Who knew that paper cup and cardboard protector sleeve could be a status symbol. “Grabbing a Starbucks” means something different to each of us who experience it.
For grandma’s and their granddaughters, it’s about slowing down to catch up. For business people, it’s about doing a deal. For first dates it’s finding out how their date orders their drink. For birthdays and anniversaries, it kicks off (or ends) a special day in our lives.
When we “grab a Starbucks” we are doing it for our own reason. But have we bought into their marketing? Will we be persuaded by their progressive stand on different issues? Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz recently said, “Starbucks has become a part of the culture of the country. There’s an emotional attachment to Starbucks, so we’re treated differently.”
He recently wrote a letter to his fellow Americans about his stance on guns in Starbucks. He let us know his preference would be we disarm before coming into a Starbucks. Those who still carry a gun will be served, but he would prefer we show up without guns. Schultz said, “For those who champion ‘open carry,’ please respect that Starbucks stores are places where everyone should feel relaxed and comfortable. The presence of a weapon in our stores is unsettling and upsetting for many of our customers.”
Those customers need to be reminded they can walk out of an establishment when the Second Amendment is offending them. Mr. Schultz, I believe my emotional attachment to Starbucks is fading. I think I just might treat you differently. As a matter of fact, I think I am going to “grab a soda”.http://www.tpnn.com/from-a-tea-party-mom-starbucks-im-done/

Editor's Comment
Those who are engaged in fighting the leftist takeover of American culture have been making tough decisions for a few years. Give up this and that, but for how long, and when are we forced to buy something just because there is no other way to exist?

These tough decisions might be true for gasoline, clothing, food, education, etc. But it will never be true for coffee and coffee like beverages which include latte’s, chai’s and espressos; the products in which Starbuck’s specializes.

Up until recently, I was buying Starbuck’s Americano with some cream and sweetener. I became accustomed to the flavors rolling around in my mouth on a cold day. But the owners of Starbucks being who they are, unadmitted socialists joining the small but loud percentage of other leftists who are trying to do away with the Second Amendment, and while they’re at it, put my family in even more danger by promoting more dangerous places for armed thugs to perpetrate their attacks; I have decided that I no longer need that Vente Americano with crème and sweetener for almost $3.00.

And in our neck of the woods, the great northwest, there is an “Espresso” drive-through on virtually every other corner and even on some backroads in amongst the trees and near the beaches. And, they are mostly owned and operated by locals. Locals who have yet to gain a national or global stage and try their hand at changing our culture and spitting on The Rule of Law; our U.S. Constitution. Why? Because they're just trying to sell coffee.

Mr. Schultz, I suggest that you make yet another announcement. I suggest that you apologize for stamping on the heritage of this great country, and forgetting your place in society. After all, since your grand announcement to make those of us who support The U.S. Constitution into second class citizens, America is still the greatest place to live on this planet in spite of your efforts to the contrary. And, when all is said and done, you are no politician, you are not an elected official at all, you're not even a Hollywood star or a community organizer. You're nothing more than a bean salesmen. And, by the way, they're burnt.

So, the attachment that I once had for a once great American icon, Starbucks, has now been replaced with a mild loathing whenever I see the logo, or hear of someone spending money there. And, whenever I have an opportunity, I share my plan of boycott with others. And, every time I see a Starbucks, I immediately think of the three nearest Espresso drive-throughs within eye site, and often head that way. So, in a way, Mr. Schultz has begun adding to the riches of some small business owners in south west Washington.

Yes, I am only one individual with a readership of a few hundred on this blog and a few dozen on another blog; and one who attends a small church with a regular attendance of just over a hundred, where I infrequently get to preach. I wonder how many others like me there are out there?

I also wonder if any business owner in these tough economic times can afford to leave behind the business of being in business and take on the political arena instead.

I will no longer carry my weapon into Starbucks to get coffee, seeing as how I may offend 

So, at least in south west Washington State, there are some of us who are taking Starbucks’ CEO Howard Schultz’s words to heart. I and my side arm are getting our coffee elsewhere. And, I don't even carry it in the open. I carry it just like the criminals do, concealed.

UN Resolutions Hold no Authority Over American Citizens

Only duly elected American officials who represent their constituents can be in the law making business for Americans. We did not elect ANYBODY in the U.N. to make decisions that affect U.S. laws.
Therefore, any elected U.S. government representatives, including the President of these united states, do not have the authority to take part in the un Constitutional actions at the U.N.

Go ahead and sign gun treaties Mr. Obama. I am importing those vintage rifles anyway and I am carrying my concealed or unconcealed side arm regardless.

One fights battles that need fighting regardless of the inevitable outcome.

I was told from a trusted pulpit in the Midwest that we should not try to fight our government if they try to come for our guns, because one cannot fight the police and the army with all of their armed might and artillery. He forgets that one does not fight important battles because he can win them. One fights battles that need fighting regardless of the inevitable outcome. It was with the courage of this spirit that America was founded.

If we surrender our guns, we are already dead or enslaved anyway. Let me die the death of the righteous and those to blame can face their own consequences.

Parent faces 10 years in jail for asking questions about Common Core

Freedom of Speech Dead in Obama's New America

Robert Small, a father of two, went to a panel in Towson, Maryland hoping to relay his concerns about Common Core, national curriculum standards pushed by the Obama Administration. Rather than answer his questions, state school officials intimidated him and subsequently had him arrested (emphasis added):
Small stood and interrupted Baltimore County School Superintendent Dallas Dance during a question-and-answer session and began to tell the audience that he believed the new curriculum was lowering the standards of education and was intended to prepare students for community colleges. “You are not preparing them for Harvard,” he said.

Who Are The Syrian Rebels?

Who Are The Syrian Rebels?

We need to think twice before we start supporting the rebels in Syria. They are starting to show their true
colors. They are establishing brutal Sharia Courts in captured areas.
A French film crew is allowed inside Sharia courts establish by Syria’s newly ruling Islamists in Aleppo where they encounter torture, intimidation and lies.

Al Qaeda Leader Calls For Muslims to Bleed America Through New Attacks

Al Qaeda Leader Calls For Muslims to Bleed America Through New Attacks

In an audio speech released online a day after the 12th anniversary of the 9/11 strikes, Zawahri said attacks
“by one brother or a few of the brothers” would weaken the U.S. economy by triggering big spending on security.
“We should bleed America economically by provoking it to continue in its massive expenditure on its security, for the weak point of America is its economy, which has already begun to stagger due to the military and security expenditure,”

It's Official -- House Votes to Stop Funding for Obamacare

This just in from Tea Party Patriots National Support Team


Patriots,


Your hard work is paying off and for now it seems the House Leadership is listening to the will of the American people. The House just voted 230 to 189 to keep the government funded while stopping funding for Obamacare.

Now the ball is in Harry Reid's court. What will he do? Will he continue to ignore the will of the American people or will he finally listen to the people he represents and stop Obamacare from further destroying our economy?

This is a critical moment and we need everyone making phone calls to Harry Reid to tell him to listen to the voice of the American people.

Call Harry Reid now and tell him that we will not rest until we stop Obamacare!

Harry Reid: 202-224-3542

In Liberty,

Obamacare Continues to Rattle Apart -- The Low-Info-Left Dubs it a Success

Trader Joe's Dropping Insurance For Employees; ThinkProgress Says This Means Obamacare Works!

The wheels have been coming off the Obamacare bus for quite a while now, and always there is the mainstream media performing pit crew duty to cobble it back together and send it on it’s way.
But even they have their limit.
More and more companies are announcing that the onerous regulations of ObominableCare are forcing them to shut down health care plans they can no longer afford for their employees. You might think this would be a problem, but have no fear! The worst of lapdog media mendacity fromThinkProgress assures all Americans that this is a sign that Obamacare is actually working!

Google True to Form for Honoring 911 Heroes -- NOT

Google's Dishonorable 911 Tribute


In case you missed it today, that minuscule smudge of illustrator's ink on your Google Search page was not a tiny particle of food that you flicked on your screen by accident last night. It was Google's idea of honoring our Fire and Police Department heroes and others like Todd Beamer who fought in the battle against the Muslim attackers on 911.

As a public service, RightPaparazzi enlarged the image so we could all attempt viewing it at a more conventional image size and possibly read the words on the temporary mouse roll-over pop-up. See image below.


Gun Control Recalled ! Victory for Rule of Law

By  on 9.11.13 @ 6:08AM

Yesterday’s Colorado defeats don’t bode well for Democrats in 2014.


Colorado voters yesterday successfully recalled two Democrat Colorado state Senators who led passage of a package of state gun control laws reflecting President Obama’s overcooked national rhetoric in the wake of the tragic Sandy Hook elementary school shooting in Connecticut last December.
With 100% of the vote counted, Senate President John Morse conceded defeat after trailing all night. Senator Angela Giron lost by a wider 56% to 44% margin with all of the vote counted in her Pueblo, Colorado district. Both were replaced by Republicans, reducing the Democrat majority in the state Senate to just one vote. The successful recall elections, raised questions about the future of Democratic Party candidates as President Obama’s protective national star fades and passes.

No Global Economy

I find it ironic that globalists, socialists, communists, statists and other America haters like Obama want to destroy America's economy.

There would be no global economics without a strong US presence. If you want a strong global economy, then you should want a strong American economy first. This means a change in tactics from the Left.

The Left needs to support Americans buying local whenever possible, voting Right all the time, and by all means GETTING RID OF OBAMA and his wrecking crew.

Do this, and you will ultimately have a stronger global economy, and more peace in the Middle East.

Boosting America is a win-win for everyone. Thus the irony of even the existence of the far Left.

One last word; BENGHAZIIIIIIIIIIIIIII !

Right Paparazzi Seeks Managing Editor -- Want to Write About Obama? Here's Your Chance

Yes. It is obvious that blog sites such as RightPaparazzi have made a difference.


Stats show that as new conservative sites and theire readerships have increased exponentially, more informed voting is beginning to take hold not only in key states, but everywhere; even Eastern Block states are beginning to lose their Leftist momentum and some are even gaining honest ground towards Constitutionalism, like North Carolina. Even California has been having trouble passing their totalitarian illegal laws in the past five years. Some times, the only way that states such as these can "pass" un Constitutional "laws" is by unrepresentative mandate; where either an elected official makes something law by executive mandate, or an un Constitutional judge strikes down an official election by the people.

We are making a difference!

RightPaparazzi was started as a grass roots reporting and research blog to help larger conservative sites get their message out to smaller communities of conservatives who do not currently feel engaged in The Fight. It is this editor's opinion that every concerned American should be engaged in The Fight For Liberty through exposing those who have proven that they hate the Rule of Law, i.e.; our U.S. Constitution.

"...every concerned American should be engaged in The Fight For Liberty..."

Unfortunately for this individual, my income is not sufficient to maintain the growth of this site, and I must pass this on to the next higher level. This site costs me $0 to actually operate, but my business is beginning to suffer as I devote more and more time to keeping this site populated and engaged. Wouldn't it be sad if the hundreds of watchers who are now reading this blog regularly went all the way back down to zero, which is what will happen if no one picks up this ball and runs with it.

I must put my family and my business first and therefore I am stepping down from operating RightPaparazzi as any one of you steps up to the plate.

If you are interested in running with this small juggernaut, please contact me at this email,

Thank you.
