      <![CDATA[Pretty funny.  As if Starbucks' CEO will announce at a press conference, "The Starbucks boycott is cutting into our business.  IT is having a negative impact."  Seriously, do you really think they would admit if there was an issue?  OF course, you have to look where this article originated - from Gay ACTIVISTS who would not dare admit the truth about much of anything anyway.   They will LIE and DECEIVE anyone just to get their way.  They're nothing but a bunch of brats in a sandbox that can't get along so they resort to bullying.

      <![CDATA[There is not a single RATIONAL reason to not support LGBTQ people in their fight for Equal Rights and Marriage Equality. That being Gay {and acting upon it!} is a "Sin", comes from the very old {St.Augustine} Catholic idea of "Original Sin", that "Sin" being that Eve ate the Apple, somehow making all Sex a "Sin", to be "paid for" by Death and Eternal Hellfire afterwards. Since the only path to avoid "Hellfire for Eternity" was to join and obey the Church, this gave the Church ENORMOUS political power - as long as uneducated peasants believed crappola like that. {The Church Hierarchy, of course, only SAID they believed it -- laughing all the way to the Medieval Bank!}<br />
Any arguments against complete Equality in every respect, are merely faith-based and cannot be legitimately imposed on the VAST MAJORITY who don't believe that superstitious "Original Sin" nonsense any more. {Or imposed on them even if they were a minority -- which they are not!}

      <![CDATA[What 8 said. While it's great that Starbucks is agreeing not to break the law, it's not reason enough to consume their crap. Howard Schultz still hates Seattle, and doesn't deserve kudos.

      <![CDATA[I dislike when my values are considered radical because of my Christian values, lets pretend for a moment that homosexuality is not a sin, and I will then once again water down my values so that you can feel good  about your movement.   I have a better Idea, I will honor each person as a child from God, and he whom is without sin can throw the first stone at starbucks! doesn't mean I will ever pretend to support starbucks, yet in the same breath I will not past judgement to those that do!

Then again, most of what they do doesn't seem very well thought out so I guess it's at least consistent.

      <![CDATA[Starbucks made the decision to back gay marriage because they view the issue through the "lens of humanity."<br>
<br>
Here's hoping they expand that lens to include fair trade coffee buying practices - not the watered down version they currently get away with in the US (but curiously, not in the UK).

      <![CDATA[A good percentage of the names on NOM's petition aren't even genuine.  Things like "Perverted Priest" and other obvious jokes are all over it.  I know people who put them there.  NOM doesn't care, it's just another IP address to "count."  They're such ugly characters.

      <![CDATA[I am so happy about this boycott -- if it ensures that my local Starbucks is free of hate-filled bigoted homophobes, how refreshing!<br />
<br />
Now I am waiting for the  pathetic hypocrites at NOM to boycott Microsoft, Apple and Google (all of whom strongly support marriage equality and equal rights) so that we will never have to hear from them on the Internet again.

      <![CDATA[Best news all week for sure, hilarious that bigots first of all don't buy overpriced coffee from one of the most liberal cities in America and second that of the bigots who did shop at Starbucks few of them were willing to give up an addiction to caffeine in order to hate the gay. Oh the power of drugs.
