  • Get out and buy some coffee today! I don't even drink coffe, but plan on stopping in to pick up some bagged coffee for the rest of the office to enjoy!

  • Very well done video.

  • Just another thing people are getting riled up about. In a more ideal world, it would be dismissed as lunacy. But, it's not seen that way by many. So, I'll be at Starbucks on Valentines, showing some love instead of hate as is fit for that special day of the year.

  • And England also has roughly 255,560,550 less people than the United States. That also isn't usually taken into account.

    "The United Kingdom has one of the lowest rates of gun homicides in the world, and did so even before strict gun control legislation came into force." -Wikipedia

  • @Wilseyz Also, Starbucks says they match their policy with the local laws, so if a group doesn't like the policy of the shop, they have four main options a) try to change the local laws or b) go someplace the local laws prohibit guns like D.C. or Chicago or c) get over it and let me enjoy my coffee or d) not go to Starbucks. Sounds like some are choosing D, but the amount of people doing so is probably counteracted by the amount of people who go to Starbucks specifically because of their policy.

  • their coffee is about $50 in california

    or might as well be with their price for a drink

  • screw guns

    I want some artillery XD

    Lets see intimidation at it's best XD

  • Guns enable people to kill people but good video I like you knive videos better

  • Theres 500 million firearms in the world. The only reason people think their evil and bad is simple. 100 million of those firearms are the AK-47 or it's variants, which the media portrays as the choice for terrorist that are going to kill us all.

  • @tippmann981234 the media demonizes all firearms.

  • A wondrful video and a great point.

  • Wonderful. I'm going to starbucks for sure valentines day

  • well said. 

  • Go starbucks! The open carry groups website has some good links cause they have had some open carry meetings at starbucks cause they allow it(in the states that its legal)

  • guns dont kill people, people kill people

  • OMG I read the article and some people are retarded. Obviously if we had UK's gun laws we'd have less GUN homicides, but not less homicides! And I HATE when people compare US to other countries w/o using per capita. Some people are retarded.

  • It also means that if you catch a burglar in your home, they will most likely run away rather than shoot you.

    I think this system is the best by far, and this is backed up by the very low number of homicides we get.

    However, any place where guns are already common it would be foolish to make them illegal since you would have a scenario where basically all criminals had one but no civilian could defend themselves with one.

  • If there are already guns everywhere, banning them is stupid. If there are few guns, making them legal is stupid.

    Here, random civilians being shot is almost completely unheard of. Guns are basically only used in gang wars and bank robberies. That means that if you get mugged in the street, it is almost always because you went alone into a dark alley, walked through a park at night or similar risky behaviour, and even if your are unlucky, you are very unlikely to get fatally wounded.

  • Amen brother...

  • This is a great pro gun argument, you represent us well!

  • Comment removed

  • there are lies, dam lies, and then there are statistics. Winston Churchill

  • i boycott starbucks everyday because i'm heterosexual.

  • Great Video!! Everyone should watch it!!

  • Thank you Jeff for talking about this. You are completly correct and hope that your message gets spread. I will do my part to see that it does.

  • Anti-gun laws are such a joke. You make a law banning guns, great. Now no one decent can protect themselves from criminals. What? Yes, criminals are criminals for a reason. They break laws and standard protocol. And what is a ban on guns? A law, a protocol, nothing more. They steal, maybe kill, and injure people already, what will stop them from breaking one more law, especially a law that will feed their disgusting need to hurt others and steal further.

    Think about it.

  • Holy (insert profanity here) that comment at around 6:00 is the argument I will use against anti gun people from now on. That has to be the most elegant yet simple way to explain why to be pro gun rights i may have ever heard. (sincerely)

  • your assumption reminds me of the matrix. Would I have not clicked the link had you not read it to me? Now that you read it, I will never know...

  • @glockfan86 Exactly what first popped into my head too!

  • Jeff firearms give the elderly, disabled, and women a chance to defend themselves against much more physically imposing criminals.

  • I think we can be worst than animals; becouse of that I´d like to be able to carry guns.

  • OK i couldn't be stuffed listening to all this but i'd be boycotting Starbucks cos thier coffee is SHIT, Australia booted them out of the country by boycotting thier SHIT coffee lol.

    All American coffee is like DISHWATER, oops DIRTY DISHWATER. Actually Americans are DUMB, thier coffee is SHIT. lets just boycott EVERYTHING american, Ahh that makes more sense, :)

  • i have said it before and will say it again. uk had about 2 school shootings banned guns years back had i think only 2 more since. usa i cant even count but check online and its a massive amount. owning the same tool/weapon does not increase your chances it just means it is way more easier for people to access guns legally or illegally. yes other country's have the guns but not the problems because other country's have a different society. its clear that the right to bear guns is dumb.

  • YOU WANT MY GUNS YOUR GONNA HAVE TO PRY THEM FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS (ch)

  • Dark-starbutts coffee sucks went there once never again tasted like ass. Bunch of sheeple

  • What about the Constitution????

  • So the only solution to human violence is to "baby proof" the earth. By getting rid of everything that could possibly be used as a weapon. For example a pillow you could smother a person with a pillow.

  • Well, I'm visiting starbucks more often now!

  • well, i'm visiting starbucks more often now!

  • The non gunner as well as the Gov has to understand. The gun owners of the USA are the largest armed forces in the USA and maybe the world. The non gunner and Gov. should be supporting us, not trying to disarm us.

  • I boycotted StarBucks years ago every day all day... year round! Has nothing to do with firearms in the store. But what ever.

  • I'll be sure to get a latte or something from Starbucks because they stand behind our constitutional rights.

  • while we are on the topic of stupid demands and boycotts i propose we all boycott rain i hear that causes floods :p

  • At the start when he said he loves us im like "no homo?"

  • Starbucks has awesome coffee and good service, try it you won't regret it...then do a video of the coffee tasting.

  • i hate it when that happens that pat down and search us (the bad kids) and one kid got pissed at me and my friends so he walked away at recess when they let us outside for half an hour so the kid pick up some rocks and threw them and busted my lip and broke my friends nose so we ran after him and kicked the shit out of him for it...

    so i see your point about if you take one thing they will find something else

  • Dude you are so right no matter what there will always be good vs bad. Guns, no guns, there will always be douche bags to ruin stuff for the rest of us(anti gun people).

  • People with permits realy don't want to shoot people just like that! You realy have to be of danger to the person. If your gun is leagal you won't kill a person just because he pushed you. Gun violance comes from people who buy guns illeagaly.

  • damn good vid

  • This is the best combination of logic, reason, and smartassness on this particular subject that I have ever seen... This needs to have a couple million views asap!

  • use your fists

  • 4:36 - 5:29 FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone should cut this part of the video out and reupload it and make it go viral!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • no we don't have more stabbings in england , just saying

  • @anodise77 Per capita, you do. Just saying.

  • Lol if they get rid of al the guns i wont use a knife. I will use crossbows and bow n arrows.

  • Oh, and I will be CCing too.

  • WOOOHOOOOO I'm going to Starbucks for Valentines day!

  • We are animals? I was not aware I was a animal. Do you think we are no different that dogs?

  • @wranglerstar yes were homo sapiens as apposed to canines, you agree were mammals right? a type of animal, lol we are just the smartest animal on the planet...at the moment anyway

  • @cutlerylover Smartest animals? Thats very debatable lol

  • @cutlerylover squatch is the smartest. when people come within 250 yards of him he lays in the mud of the nearest swamp

  • @wranglerstar Scientifically, humans are animals. That is a factual statement, whether you were aware of it or not is irrelevant.

  • @wranglerstar To be more specific we belong to Kingdom: Animalia, Phylum: Chordata, Class: Mammalia, Order: Primates, Family: Hominidae, Genus: Homo, Species: H. sapiens.

  • @wranglerstar Are fish animals? Do you think they're no different from dogs?

  • For the first time ever I will be buying coffee from starbucks

  • From now on I'm going to watch something less idiotic.

  • @pingpongme Byebye

  • Protectionists are just retarded. The day guns get taken away I go crazy and friggin protest by my self even idc. We good responsible people need them

  • More US citizens use firearms to shoot at targets than criminals use firearms to kill .

    Taking firearms away from law abiding US citizens make zero sense and goes against our constitution.

    Once you try to break apart our constitution it's only a matter of time before it becomes a useless piece of paper.

  • Her name is "Suzanna Gratia Hupp" - This lady  was at the Lubys shooting in 1991 . She always carried a gun on her. She would have had a gun on her at the time but they had just passed a new gun law.

  • you're applying logic against people who don't use logic...just look at their position and the fact they will NOT look at the real ststs...i knew about starbucks policy of obeying state and local laws..i'm gonna post this link on my fb so all my gun toting friend give starbucks a visit on Vday !

  • What about under cooked chicken? People die every year from that, make chicken illegal too rablrablrabl. Lol anti gun nuts make me giggle. Their logic an reasoning is that of an infant. They look at one point and not the whole story. I as well will visit an sb on naughtiness day ( my auto correct changed valentines day to that )

  • Wife and I will be buying some Starbucks coffee!

  • U are veey right in the news m8. It is alk depressing and it doesnt matter what cuntry :) ure in. Peace out

  • England's population is about 50 million...if you increased their populaiton to what the USA's is about 300 million then they would have about 2100 homicides by gun...so that is what we could supposedly expect...we wouldn't expect 300 some gun deaths because our population is bigger...that isn't a 97% reduction as they claimed.

  • @GoldenP51 they never ever look at per capita stats...one of the many flawed and down right deceptive forms of "logic" the nanny state antigun lobby uses to try and scare people...they seem to forgeet ...ok overlook the fact that someone with a ccw or who open carries has passed a background check to get said gun,meaning they live within the boundaries of the law..these people don't commit crimes...the argument they make is laughable !

  • i own many guns legally, and as i have noticed the only people ho u have to fear are the ones how carry them illegally

  • I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but it looks like i'm going to buy 10 cups of Starbucks coffee on Valentines day. Who is with me???

  • australia is so anti gun i hate it

  • I'll see you guys on valentines day

  • Why is it that when someone runs someone over with a car, the protectionists don't say "hey civilians shouldn't own cars" ????????????? Much more deaths every year with automobiles, they could save so many more lives.

  • @FutureGD They are not all car "accidents", I personally know someone who drove down a busy sidewalk killing three people and injuring twelve. Maybe we should take your car off you so you won't do that.

  • @FutureGD Let's ban toothpicks lmao. Next time you walk in a Starbuck's look around and pick out which table your going to cower under and wet yourself should some maniac come in and start shooting.

  • @FutureGD Nope it's called personal responsibility, protect yourself. Ask JESUS for some strength and guidance.

  • @glynn72 He wants the police to protect him, you are arguing with someone with a mental disorder, waste of you time.

  • @FutureGD Sounds like your the one who is brainwashed, thinking laws stop criminals from committing crime. You need a reality check. So if you were to own a gun, I guess you would magically want to just start shooting people. Cause that's what your argument seems to be. Quite illogical!!

  • @yardbirdist well thats the trend were you live, you should know all about it since you have the most deaths by gun in the world.

  • @FutureGD Freedom isn't free.

  • @yardbirdist look at arozona they have the loosest gun laws and they have less gun realted crimes than any of the other states

  • @noahboa13000 I live in Arizona and I'm going to Starbucks today.  I will open carry my 9mm while I enjoy my Chai Tea!

  • @FutureGD What you just said is very ignorant. Sure I talked a little smack to you but it's all in good fun. You sound like the kind of person that calls black folks n****rs, But only when they aren't around....Hillbillies!!!...LOL­...Get over yourself dude. And also you just admitted that if guns were illegal only criminals would have them, So you just ended your own arguement.

  • @4girls1bucket how did you know? that is true, but I dont give them that name because I hate on them, but thats what they call each other so why not :P and of course, ONLY when they are not around!

    yes only criminals would have them, and then you confiscate all the guns that criminals have, and viola! No one has guns :D

  • @FutureGD Before I changed my major to Forensic Science I studied Psycology. I know what kind of person you are. You are simply a coward, And taking away the things that scare you or make you uncomfortable only invite in more insecurities. And racist too!...LOL...People with your beliefs are the most dangerous, Because you will follow who ever best suits your purposes at that time. Just like the manson girls, And muslim extremists. With no personality of you own you are just a robot.

  • @4girls1bucket wow that was such a "Psychologically" right profile you made off me, please tell me more about myself o_O!!! I wouldn't think of myself as a coward, but as a cautious person, like cutlerylover.

    But how can taking away something that can kill me make me more insecure mr. "I know psychology"?

    Nah I'm not racist, I just like having fun, there is nothing wrong with using the "N" word today (now if we go back 100 years, that's another discussion).

  • @4girls1bucket how can following Islam be something that's suits people at a TIME? Islam has the most rules and is the hardest religion to follow. I don't understand where you are coming from! This just proves you know nothing about the world, especially Islam the "SUPER SPOOKY EXTREMIST RELIGION" OMG HIDEEEEE!!!.

    I myself to be honest want to buy and collect guns, but not to shoot them but just to clean them, take them apart and such.

  • @FutureGD I said extreme muslims, Not muslims in general. I know plenty about the world and I spent 4yrs in the middle east so my opinion is based on fact. Please buy a firearm, Shoot it, Enjoy it, You will fall in love with shooting sports. It will change your mind about guns.

  • @4girls1bucket Just so you know, I mean no disrespect to you or your opinions.

    I'm 27 in a week and I'v never shoot a gun, so I guess ill try it ;)

  • @FutureGD I mean you know disrespect either. I just want you to be a free american with a mind of your own. Your quality of life is important and living in a country that fears your freedom is a scary thing. Do the right thing and promote freedom, Vote for freedom. Our constitution needs to be put before all else for us to truly be americans. And firearms are the second most important right that we have.

  • @FutureGD When you put emotion over your intellect, your not making much sense. Don't you trust yourself to own a firearm. I guess you can always throw rocks at the armed soldiers. " One man with a gun can control a hundred without one"

  • @yardbirdist Ohh believe me I trust myself, but on the other hand I don't trust you!

  • @FutureGD A 115 lb woman living 17 miles from the closest police station. Three men break into her house. She owns a gun, she has a chance. Very simple.

  • @ronjay0 I totally agree in this case!

  • @FutureGD People buy $200,000 race cars and drive them to work. These cars were built to go 180mph. They were made to "race", like you say guns were made to "kill". You really don't believe the rhetoric you spew, do ya? Let's ban Lambourghinis!

  • @FutureGD When someone gets drunk and kills someone with their car it's called manslaughter not an accident, I don't know where your from.

  • @FutureGD I own guns made for target shooting. I own other guns for different shooting sports like skeet. They were not made to kill. Your rambling makes no sense at all to a free people. Sorry you are not from a country that trusts their citizens with any kind of power.

  • @yardbirdist sure target shooting no problem, target shooting "HUMANS" that is :P haha

    Just joking with you ;)

  • Your a tool who has guns

  • Wow your the reason why they want to take our guns you sound like such a dip shit

  • So that's why your so misinformed makes sence now

  • Are you kidding me? Jeff, we MUST get rid of rocks. They are

     in our schools, on our streets and even our own back yards! This problem is wayyy out of control already.

  • exacly!!!!!! the bad people will continue to carry guns while the commoners will not. a rule that says you can not carry guns in here will not stop these bad people from doing so. there is a line in a tarantino movie why her friends ask her why she carrys a gun an not a knife in which she replies" you know what happens to people how carry a knife... the get shot"

    peace out

  • I FUCKING HATE LIBERALS. I really do...

  • that's exactly the same talk I had with my ex gf. I'd rather stand against gun then knife. Rocks are commonly used in central Asia as weapon among kids and teens.

  • Guns don't hurt people... bullets do, don't be such hippies people

  • I remember in my psychology statistics class were we we're talking about relevant data and the professor gave this example. "ice cream causes people to drown. As you can see from my data more people drown during the months of July-August. Ice cream consumption also peaks at this point of time so that must be what causes it.". People need to learn that data needs to be relevant and use a little common sense.

  • Thank you for being good enough to stand up for the rights of everyone to defend themselves. And well played to Starbucks for not caving to these people. Thank you sir.

  • love the part at 12:00 mins.. Well said

  • While we're at it, we should remove all human's limbs at birth so we can't make use of unarmed combat. No, I think everyone should carry a gun or a knife and be responsible for their own safety. Criminals will always find a way to get a gun, even if they are illegal to own. They have no intent on following the law and will do whatever they like with the gun. A person who gets a gun legally, generally won't use it to commit crimes.

  • Alil bit of common sense would know this. If your scared of guns just say they make you feel uncomfortable but don't try and come up with bullshit reasons why people shouldn't be allowed to carry them. Shit some people are scared of dogs should starbucks ban seeing eye dogs from there stores? People need to think about things instead of being happy in there unrealistic world. It's sad. And Culterylover starbucks is awesome you should get a coffee there even if you have to drive far lol

  • Everytime I read these articles or here someone talk about them I'm truly amazed how ignorant people can be. One I'm a BIG starbucks coffee drinker I've been to many many different one's in my state which is california and many out of state. Never ONCE have I seen a person with a gun on there hip, back pocket, or in some ladies purse and I'm sure there has been many that have had them on there person. People that do follow the law don't just walk around like it's the wild west and anyone with

  • This is what happens when you listen to Chicken little who says "The Sky is falling!" and instead of looking to affirm or confirm you just assume its true. Secondly if you believe that your nearest relative is LASSIE then i would say that you need to seek professional help. This is not that serious I dont like coffee anywayit turns your teeth brown and your breath smells like Ass! I agree with some of your argument, but you negate your own argument with your illogical reasoning.

    Semper Fi

  • How would you like if a Slezzy HUMAN BEING Whore Knocked on your front door and said she or he deserves the right to come into your home and live there, Would You Let this Dope Smoking Aids infested Hyperdermic stuck in the arm bitch in your home? Believe it or not you dont have to go into Starbucks, I Love Guns but i respect the other nongun community as well. its all about common sense.

    Something that many lack, Wear the Firearm Concealed in Starbucks! Plain and Simple!

    Semper Fi

  • all the women should send cutlerylover valentines day cards this year or at least some free candy lol

  • Hey, Hey we are not animals we are Human Beings that are separate from animals. The big difference is we know right from wrong and animals go by pure instinct, but still you are right that people well still do bad things to one another that is just a state of fact and no law is going to change that.

  • Every knife on the planet?!?!?! Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

  • Crime stats, Jeff, also vary greatly on how that country reports crimes. Many crimes in the U.S. are things that are not illegal in other places. The U.S. also has some of the most thorough crime reporting systems in the world.

    Norway use to have higher crime than the U.S. based on stats alone. However, Norway has backed down on how they report and record crimes, and is now one of the safest countries in the world... according to the numbers. *wink wink*

  • I love you too Jeff!

  • I'm pretty sure statistically you would be in more danger driving to Starbucks than actually being in a Starbucks. Any statisticians feel free to do the math. :P

  • Isn't this the same guy who writes for Time mag?

  • the thing is if a criminal wants to use a gun hes gonna use a gun even if it is illegal to carry one. the only thing that gun laws are doing are preventing people from people defending themselves.

  • I love Starbucks and I have one right by me and WHOOHOO Starbucks!!

  • Comment removed

  • Totally agree! Well said, my friend!

  • i dont need a gun, for less hassle and debate i can carry a knife. if i need to i can defend myself with my hands or anything i need. i will also not go to starbucks because i can make better coffee myself. my GF also hates starbucks, so i have no need for them on valentines day. its not bad gun or bad person. its a grey zone where a balance needs to be stricken, a rocket launcher wont help people, but a other form of semi destructive or harmful device. there needs to be some control.

  • Write Starbucks and thank them for being sensible!

  • I say we boycott the boycott. Everyone go to starbucks on valentines day!

  • I love guns and have experience shooting them, However I do not agree with your gun laws, if you can carry a gun then the other bad guys can carry a gun. In this world there are a lot of crazy ppl and I would rather have a crazy person without a gun!! Belonging to a gun club is good where you can practice your hobbies safety , however carrying them in public is just asking for trouble. How many ppl are trained you use guns in stressful situations? It's all EGO and my dads better than your dad!!

  • There will always be those that are driven by puritan beliefs that all mankind is sinful and the perceived tools of sin must be banished. They rail against one thing or another, meddling in the lives of others under the guise of social conciseness. They long for a controlled world, overseen by authority. Well there just such a place . . . Prison, one of the most violent environments on earth. Why? Humans instinct for survival will compel them to use the best tool available to secure it.

  • A few of points: One might say that the only way to keep everyone safe in a community is to ban the carry of guns..... like they did at Georgia Tech.....??????

    Secondly, What? Starbucks refused to ban guns? If someone was so iinclind, I imagine they would pick a store that banned guns to rob rather than picking one where patrons might be armed.

    An armed society is a polite society. I think I'll treat myself to a venti cafe' mocha (with whipped cream) on Valentine's Day. I salute you, Starbucks.

  • thanks for the info! im defimately going to starbucks on valentines day!

  • I'm somewhat confused why you never even touched down on the sporting aspect of shooting. I've seen several clubs come and go (Sadly, more going than coming) due to people raising completely invalid arguments about raising danger due to a nearby gun club. I've been shooting for sport for as long as I remember, and never once have I seen someone get as much as grazed, none the less have a gun pointed at them. And to what you said about the news, good for you, all of the news is scare tactics.

  • Agreed

  • Its hard to cause a gun crime without carrying or concealing a gun because then you wouldn't have a gun...

  • @YourMilageMayVary or you can steal a gun or buy an unregistered firearm like the overwhelming majority of people who commit crimes with guns

  • Reverse boycott go to Starbucks on Valentine's day

  • @TheKyleofSuburbia lets call it a national buycott !!!

  • Starbucks sells tea too if you prefer that. 

  • i dont drink coffee but ill buy some on valentines day

  • On Valetines Day I will be in Starbucks with my NRA hat on.

  • Need more Gus videos!

  • Their is one final idea i would like to know your opinion on: if you need gun to defend the country and your home -again to me its the professional's job in public area- why not only allow rifles that unlike handguns can't be hidden and have less criminal potential. I also think tha with a rifle you have no chance to shoot yourself and that the added precision means less colateral damage (for this last reason i'm also critical on full auto).

  • @yeahmansoul

    What? You can shoot yourself with a rifle, many people have.

    Also, typically, bullets out of rifles typically have more velocity than out of handguns. This increases the risk of collateral damage through over-penetration, or punching holes in things.

  • @yeahmansoul It's not a necessity to own a gun. It's a right of the people.

    Which does not have to be justified. The reasons given for the necessity of that right are clearly explained in the writings of the authors of the bill of rights and the founding fathers.

  • Good video Jeff, even better tags. LoL

  • OH MY GOD. Such ignorance in this thread!! My head is going to explode. GO BUY A STARBUCKS on Valentines day. Show your support for their common sense on this issue.

  • Jeff,

    To answer your question - Yes, gun control people do want people to be helpless. They do not believe the individual. They believe that the collective state knows best.

  • And by the way if i consider guns in a rather depreciative way in nowadays "civilised" cities, i keep in mind that firearms have been a major factor of emencipation for mankind, allowing to take over wilderness and allowing people to have a place in nature and society not only based on their physical strenght.

  • @FullArsenal8691 Federally, there is no law that bans people under 21 from owning a fire-arm.

    State wise, there are only a few states that actually limit handgun ownership to those of 21 or older.

    PA and other states, for example, one can own a handgun at 18, legally. Just an FYI.

  • There is a Starbucks right down the street from my house and I will indeed be goin to get a drink on Valentine's Day. :)

  • Jeff you since you to get involved into guns -and btw i'm not sure if you feal a lot more confident now that you carry- you only had to pull it once for a bear; it represents a thing thats important gun ownership dosen't reprents the same at all if you live in a city or in the woods with wilderness and isolated from any police force. To me guns in the city respond to problem that their largely contribute to and should therefor be reserved to the police, but not in smaller where you're isolated

  • @yeahmansoul if every person had a gun it woudl no longer be taboo and havign it be a part of ev eryones life would ease their minds, the reason guns get soo much attention and negative press is peopel dont have them, and only know about gusn through movies...if there was crack for sale at every single store the next tiem you saw crack you would think, eh, thats crack, not OMG thats CRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @yeahmansoul

    You know what an illogical argument is? That suggesting a person living in the city is somehow less worthy of protecting his/her life....? That's an illogical argument.

    Guns do not contribute to more crime.

    There are a variety of other factors, however, that do contribute to crime.
