Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, who for some reason still shows her face in public rather than slithering back under a rock, has her picture taken with a big red “F” pin on her lapel.

She thinks her “F” rating from the NRA is brave and something to be proud of.

To me, it might as well be this.

She is proudly broadcasting her desire to deny Americans thier civil rights.

Just like Brown v. Board of Education clarified what the 14th Amendment meant for blacks.  Heller and McDonald clarified what the 2nd Amendmented meant for gun owners.

Just like there were protests against Brown and attempts to get around it, people like Wasserman-Schultz hate Heller and McDonald and are trying to subvert it.

Taking a stand against a Constitutionally protected right is an ugly position to take.

BREAKING: Starbucks to close all company-owned stores in U.S. on afternoon of May 29 to conduct racial-bias education pic.twitter.com/JmyNzEdTgq

— Reuters Business (@ReutersBiz) April 17, 2018

Holy shit.

First is the loss in revenue from a corporate shut down. 

Then add in the number of Starbucks employees who quit because of this.  Every “bias training” syllabus I’ve looked at online can be summed up with “check your privilege you terrible, racist white person.”

Some Starbucks employees may stand for that but I sure as shit wouldn’t tolerant having my employer call me a racist because I’m white. 

So Starbucks is going to close during normal business hours to torture it’s employees for social justice credibility.

Second:

Dick’s Sporting Goods to destroy all unsold firearms pulled from shelves after Parkland shooting.

I don’t want to know how much value in inventory that is.

Sure the manufacturers are happy the product wasn’t returned since they are still getting paid, but Dick’s is literally talking a chop saw to corporate money.

Not to mention how many more customers are going to be driving away from a comp being that political.

This is nothing but virtue signaling of the most expensive kind.

Have either of these companies’ executive teams heard the phrase “fiduciary duty” before?

Are they aware they have a legal responsibility to thier share holders not to deliberately make money losing decisions?

I wonder how woke management must be to come up with a plan that will alienate half thier customers, drive away good employees, destroy inventory, and lose revenue and still go through with it?

What share holders need to do is start suing these managers.  Maybe when the CEOs are  forced to empty their bank accounts to pay damages to the investors they will learn virtue signaling is bad corporate policy.

I saw this picture floating around the internet.

I have to disagree with it.

Sure, there are a lot of worthless majors out there, but whatever Zack may or may not have chosen to blow his student loans on, none of that justifies having a bull horn in his face in a coffee shop.

Two men were arrested at Starbucks.  Why?  Because the police were called and when the police are called, people end up in handcuffs.

Why were the cops called?  The manager asked them to leave and they didn’t, and it’s policy that managers and employees let the cops handle stuff like that.

Why were they asked to leave?  Because they were taking up a table and asked to use the bathroom without buying anything in a business.

So two men lacked the common courtesy to buy a cup of coffee before taking a piss and using a table and now poor Zack – who had nothing to do with any of that – is being subject to abuse.

He didn’t sign up for that.  Nowhere did “be able to withstand a bullhorn to the face” come up as a job description.

So I was originally going to be snarky about this and was preparing a joke.  During the joke development stage I came across this article “Hey, White People: Michael Douglas Is the Villain, Not the Victim, in Falling Down.”

Falling down is a great movie.  One reason is that you feel empathy for the villain.  He didn’t start out wanting to cause havoc.  Havoc found him.  He was mugged, beaten up, shot at in a drive by, and all around abused by a callous and uncaring system.  All he wanted was to have breakfast and go home and LA wouldn’t let him.

Twenty five years later, Michael Douglas in Falling Down is how Trump got elected.  They just voted instead of pulling a machine gun.

Zack probably just wants to make some coffee, clean his machine, and go home and these protesters are making that impossible.

I see poor Zack here and wonder how many more days of protests will he have to endure?  If he quits, who will hire him now that he’s internet famous for being associated with Starbucks?  Why isn’t Starbucks protecting their employees from abuse?  Is he day dreaming about shooting Mr. Bullhorn in the face with a MAC-10, and is that why his eyes look glazed over in that picture?

This is the kind of shit that not just got Trump but got neo-Nazis marching in the streets.

Two men lack the common courtesy buy a coffee before asking to take a piss and now some professional victicrat activist is going to blow the ear drums out of some $10/hour barista because of his white privilege.  If some “blood and soil” motherfucker showed up to knock Mr. Bullhorn’s teeth in with bat, I’m sure Zack wouldn’t be to terribly upset by that.  I know after that I wouldn’t.

For the lack of wanting to spent $4 on a latte, lives are being ruined.  You think that manger who called the police and got fired is going to find again right now?

That’s why this shit is so god damned dangerous.  If not this specific incident, this type of mentality is spiraling out of control.

The text of the Second Amendment goes like this:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Some politicians see that and think it means that only the military can have guns.  Even though the Constitution gives the Congress the ability to “raise and support Armies” in Article 1, Section 8.  Somehow the “right of the people” part is overlooked and ignored.

The words are plain to see, but for some reason people’s reading comprehension is really bad.

The text of the First Amendment goes like this:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Well, in the wake of a viral video about Sinclair broadcasting these same politicians with their reading comprehension issues looked at the First Amendemnt and couldn’t see the part about “abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.“  That blurred out just as much as the “right of the people to keep and bear arms.”

Maria Cantwell, Tom Udall, Patty Murray, Elizabeth Warren, Ron Wyden, Ed Markey, Richard Blumenthal, Tina Smith, Bernie Sanders, Jeff Merkley, Tammy Baldwin, and Cory Booker, all US Senators wrote a letter to FCC Chairman Ajit Pai, demanding an investigation into Sinclair Brodacasting Group and possibly pulling their FCC rights.

If you want to ban scary looking guns, why wouldn’t you want to ban scary sound bites?

No right is safe from people like this.

Remember California State Senator Kevin de Leon and his idiotic statement:  “This is a ghost gun. This right here has the ability with a 30-caliber clip to disperse with 30 bullets within half a second. 30 magazine clip within half a second.

He’s running for Senate to unseat Diane Feinstein.

He’s also to the far left of Bernie Sanders.

Can we please, please, please have a referendum on a national divorce instead of an election?

If he only wants to turn California into Venezuela, he can, I don’t live there.

Since he wants to turn all of America in Venezuela, I have a problem with that.

Protestors confront @Starbucks corporate employees, demand to know the name of employee who called police on two black men. They are demanding that that person be fired. @6abc pic.twitter.com/Xqof3wmn1o

Democrats sure love a lynch mob, don’t they.

The manager has already been fired and all Starbucks employees will be subjected to “unconscious bias training” whatever the hell that means.

I don’t know what more the protesters want, that’s the problem with mobs.

I fear that one day soon one of these mobs will kill someone over a Tweet.  Literally.

All it takes is a few Black Block to join in one of these boycott protests and all hell could break loose.  Just remember that 63 people were killed during the Rodney King riots.

Zach here needs to be made CEO of Starbucks.  He has more spine than Kevin Johnson.

Also, I’m sure that by now Zach is a die hard Republican and Trump supporter.
