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 your 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 not buying any of their products!
As a war vet writing to fellow patriots, I feel we should get this out. I know this war might not be very popular with some folks, but that doesn't mean we don't support the troops on the ground fighting street-to-street and house-to-house for what they believe is right. If you feel the same as I do then pass this along. Thanks very much for your support.
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!!!
Please RENAME this "STARBUCKS DENIES COFFEE TO MARINES"
