Starbucks despicable actions towards british troops

[littlelordfauntleroy]

id hardly call their behaviour 'despicable' for not wanting to give away their coffee, tight fisted and wanna-be hippy maybe. Whats wrong with compo ration coffee????

[SecurityHere]

Starbucks no Starbucks here never will be

Mcc

[the412crusader]

As an American, I'd like to (very) explicitly state the following;

F*ck Starbucks, their sh*tty overpriced coffee, and their liberal hippie bullsh*t. Thank you, Britain, for being one of the only countries to stick with us, regardless of whether or not you agreed with the war. And thank you, Royal Marines.

[alikos88]

@the412crusader

too right mate, I never likes starbucks before but this really pisses me off I am not ever going to support their business again. They can go kiss Al-Qeda's or the Taliban's arse. I am Canadian and I say the boys in Royal Marines should get our Tim Hortons's Coffee -they wont ever want to go back to HippieBucks again.

[231171]

starbucks makes bad tasting coffee. go for another brand. tastes better, is cheaper and you don't depend on these US idiots from pc Washington State. they are all pussies up there anyway.

[baller4life03]

The lad on the 0.23secs at the end was my best mate royal marine Jason Mackie ASG, we went to college together I was actually two days away to do my PRMC when Jason died in afghan and still went down smashed everything but ended up not wanting to join at that moment in time, two years on I'm going back to continue my career to be a royal marine this year so wish me luck people and it's for you Mackie mate x

[timhernandez82]

There shit is over priced crap anyway.

[george1163]

This whole story is bullshit! It never happened! Google Snopes and you will see that the whole thing is one of those Urban Myths that infest the internet.

[michaelarnold13]

COPY OF THE LETTER

is there anyway to get the copy of that letter ? if so we can do alot more with this classless acting by starbucks

[judahbenhur1000]

Grow up there SOLDIER! Thats there perrogative. Your response sounds like a child who doesn't get there pablum. Some of you guys think cuz your soldiers we all need to kiss your butts, I was a 3ppcli vet myself and know your there to get paid, if starbucks sent ya the coffee you'd complain cuz they didn't keep it coming. this site is not for you to use it for your immature rants go to tim hortons and grow yup!!

[trickydyx]

Haters gonna hate, real people check Snopes.com

[MrGraywolves]

Fails the Snopes test...

Plenty of people NOT paying all that close attention to detail....

snopes.com/politics/military/s­tarbucks.asp

[maurazebra]

Not true, not true. It is easy to check rumors like this at Snopes and a number of other online sources. ALWAYS verify before deciding to petrol bomb anyone, thanks.

[XxGREATxBRITAINxX]

I might just petrol bomb starbucks now.

[bobwatters]

i allways hated starbucks! fuck that hippy ass wanna be cool POS company and everyone who supports their bullshit! why do i wanna go to starbucks and listen to pretentious douchebags on their phone talk to people like its sooo important and type bs on their laptop with smooth jazz in the background? fuck them and that company i would rather sit in a fuckin mcdonalds atleast no one there tries to act like they soooo fuckin important! if ur that important ur not sittin in a fuckin starbucks!

[santiagolondres]

Good answer........

[outofslumber]

Propaganda is propaganda, no matter who partakes in it. And this is propaganda.

[rodgergibbs]

hmm, starfucks taking the moral highground, ironic really

[LindaGeorge]

Complete rubbish,What idiot posted this? The CEO of Costa? Check your facts!!

[char11e5]

A false urban myth perpetuated by the gullible. Google "Snopes military Starbucks".

[flammabletube]

I wonder if starbucks would have sent coffee to the US troops fighting the same war bet the answer would be yes

[flatmanlewis]

We heard the same rumors here in the US. It's seemed believable when I heard it but many, many Starbucks have "Send coffee to the troops" displays set up. Our US Starbucks are very respectable. They even have a policy of allowing armed customers in their stores. (Google 'Open Carry Movement' in California for more info.

[TheDaisyFucker]

Fuck Starbucks

[739sid]

Yes, I think it's fair play too, it's simple don't support Starbucks

[harrychown1989]

I think it's fair play if a company doesn't support an illegal war in Iraq

[BasilFawlty4444]

@silicon605 Nobody tries to hide that big buisness funded Hitler. I study history at Oxford, and that's not hidden at all. I don't agree with this other conspiracy nonsense, but your point on "billionaire bankers" is not only accepted, but taught in secondary school.

Indeed, the "was Hitler a socialist?" argument that modern historians entangle themselves in revolves heavily around a) the funding he recieved and b) the rising profits that armaments firms made under the 4 year plan.

[TheLegendofPatrick]

I don't see the problem either. If a bunch of goons asked me for free product, shipped at my expense to a a war I don't agree with, I'd fuck 'em off too.

[firevorm]

@TheLegendofPatrick I dont support the war either but i support our troops where ever they may be

[HShawnWilson]

Yep FUCK the WAR...

Its just too bad that innocent soldiers gets sent out for questionable conflicts by people never risking a single drop of their own blood for money or more power.

If you support troops ANYWHERE for ANY reason it PROMOTES the WAR!

ANYTHING that ruins the morale for the soldiers will effectively end the war or conflict much faster than if promoted.

YES it sucks for the soldiers..but in the long run supporting a wrongful conflict is WRONG in any way shape or form!

[cpet60]

@HShawnWilson crap

[TheLegendofPatrick]

@firevorm Urban myth. Check facts, then calm down.

[rufiotgl]

@TheLegendofPatrick and its pricks like you that have ruined this once great country!! You dont have to support the war by supporting the people!! I bet you do as your told with your job (if you even have one), the same as they are!! They are braver and more of a decent person than you will EVER be!!

[hext616]

@TheLegendofPatrick The troops are not "Goons" they are PEOPLE trying to do thier jobs ,If anybody is a "GOON" its the politicians and big corperations that are,You should not knock the soldiers, YOU are not fit to shine thier shoes,

[Chord4ta]

@TheLegendofPatrick

Hmm I agree they didn't need to send them coffee, but to explicitly state they "do not support anyone in the war" seems a touch in spite.

[TheLegendofPatrick]

@Chord4ta Check your facts. It's an urban myth, never happened.

[cpet60]

@TheLegendofPatrick You sound like a right simplistic kn*b , service personnel go where the POLITICIANS send them, you seem to have a similar lack of understanding as Starf*cks. Legendofpatrick.....leg end in your own mind more like

[TheLegendofPatrick]

@cpet60 The whole story is a bullshit urban myth mate, calm the fuck down and check your facts properly before you go all self righteous. You're just embarassing yourself.

[cpet60]

@TheLegendofPatrick My piont is with ref to your attitude to the forces personnel and not the "story". To describe men and women who defend and die for our country as Goons shows the kind of person you are. You seem happy to live with the freedom these people have ensured that you enjoy but refer to them with contempt.

[bigrider2806]

@TheLegendofPatrick just remember they are fighting for your right to have that opinion .

[TheLegendofPatrick]

@bigrider2806 'Cause a bunch of ak weilding ragheads in some far off country are a real threat to my rights. Also, this story is an urban myth. It's false. It didn't happen. Check snopes you gullible shitcucnt.

[bigrider2806]

@TheLegendofPatrick backward beyond reason , we should be aiming our guns at scum like you first , you dont deserve the freedom these lads provide for you .pond life .

[KristianCramer]

What exactly is wrong with this?..

you HAVE to support the war or else you are an asshole company?

[PompeyRoy]

Fuck Starbucks. 

[ClTIZEN]

Good on Starbucks. Coffee tastes like shit but at least they are standing up for what is right and not blindly following like sheep.

[rufiotgl]

@ClTIZEN shut it hippie

[ClTIZEN]

@rufiotgl You going to make me faggot?

[ronsiris]

oh the deepest shame on you boardroom cowards at starbucks....may you ,,your families and your company cease to prosper.

[DocHoliday1882]

Starbucks is a junk place any-old-ways!

[ulionbastards]

Starbucks can kiss my white American ass!! I have never even tasted the piss water anyway. Respect to our British allies and all others fighting the Taliban. Go Britain!!

[matsterness]

fucking starbucks! support the troops!

[GAMINGgrungey]

@Wahnsinner You are an arse, respect those who have died you fucking dyke!!!

[account22120]

fuck starbucks respect to our marines!

[Gtrplyr1]

despicable is anyone who supports wars based on lies. It's a shame that starbucks has to come forward and apologize for our brainwashed society, just to maintain business. Perhaps if everyone in the U.S. was capable of thinking for themselves, actually researched who controls war, who is responsible for them the corruption in the military industrial complex as well as our current government, they might see the real world.

[BritishArmy22]

@Wahnsinner Shouldn't you be hanging from a tree somewhere?

[SpeakForChange]

well done starbucks for speaking the truth

[wiganerrmc]

fuck starbucks kick them out of britian

[bilboardguy]

nine people are fat and live in starbucks

[soldierside365]

ofcourse it doesnt support, its filled with liberal hippie youth who are trying to afford their way through performing arts college, whilst they're not writing poetry whilst sipping some far too expensive mocca-sucka-cocka-cino.. when will the realize the people who fight this war, regardless of the conflict, are there to protect their waste of space beings??

[zaczm1]

It's only coffe for fucks sake. If the don't want to be associated with the war then that's their choice. they shouldn't have to give it to them just because they asked for it.

[ChrisGuitarDude557]

Can I just point this out, maybe a correction at 0:44 - Men and Women on the ground, in the air and at sea? Finally someone made a video to put this out there :D

[mranthonywhitemancfc]

disgusting! and the starbucks coffee as well

[GIProductionz]

1 platoon recon company? what the fuck are you talking about? fake... if so, what unit? this fucking company and platoon doesnt even exist!

[RonnieJamesable]

@GIProductionz I was thinking that... I met a bloke in a pub once who told me he was in 24 commando - Fat fucker he was, too - I said you'd better thin out pal.

He said 'what does that mean?

so I hit him.

[firevorm]

haters gonna hate

[TheOverlord2010]

@firevorm Rodger that, will not be spending my cash with this brand.

[davejgirr]

this video is a hoax

[imboor3d]

This is purely a myth. It started out as the US Marines in America, and somehow changed to the Royal Marines.

Here:

snopes(.)com/politics/military­/starbucks

[dynamicz108]

At the end of the day fellas everyone is entitled to their opinion.....there are more important things to worry about than coffee is there not? :-)

[rji]

There sure is a lot of bullshit on youtube and I'm not talking about starbucks I'm talking about this video.

[TheJohnmRM]

Its true about this whole starbucks thing, however platoons etc in the corps????? NO!!!! No real bootneck sgt in his right mind would spout off the whole bnp, english pride, anti immigrant shite on the web {on his page) whether or not he believs it or not!!!!!!

[pirateman1]

for starters as its royal marines, its not platoon, its troop, secondly it wouldnt be recon, itd be recce, so stop chatting shit

[gooserm]

That Marine Address does not exist, there are no Platoons or recon Companies in the Royal Marines. and the 3rd picture of the Sgt Marine was not killed in action at all.

Thank you for your support but you need to get your facts straight first

[Aliasify]

@gooserm This is a load of bollokcs you are correct, this bull shit story keeps going around and "SGT Wright" seems to switch between beeing part of non-exsistant Royal marine recce unit to a member of USMC Force recon.

[5kw1dgton]

Green Bean and Timmy Hortons!!!! Afghan vets know what I'm talking about . Who cares about starbucks,,faggots

[DBAViking]

Fuck Starbucks in the ass. Fuck em in the ass with a Chinese monkey

[gengar77]

ouch that hurts....

screw starbucks....

oh im a tea drinker btw....

[Mynamesuckstoo]

Fuck me I just started at Starbucks and to me this is fucking rediculas! I fully support all soldiers on operations around the world and hope to join them in a few years time. Hearing this honestly makes me pissed. Royal Marine Commando are the best in the world. They deserve all the coffee in the world for what they are doing!

[slobjob13]

Starbucks coffee tastes like piss.

[firevorm]

@slobjob13 Ive never tryed it and never will lol

[slobjob13]

@firevorm lol. Well im a bit of a coff-aholic and Starbucks certainly isn't my favorite, by quite a way...

Thanks for the add btw!

Waes Hael!

[crouchtrac]

I know where to send MY letter bomb!

[firevorm]

@crouchtrac Lol :)

[Beetoores]

wtf is this shit?

[firevorm]

@Beetoores its called the truth

[Beetoores]

@firevorm what's the truth? do you really think that some shit video, a 100 seconds in lengh, consisting of aload of text put together on movie maker, with a few images for the last 20 seconds is actually going to make a difference? i'm sure if you sent a 1000 begging letters to different companies none would condone the violence, so get off you high horse and do something that may be of use to someone.

[PWJAMES6]

Starbucks can shove their overpriced mugs of piss up their fucking arse !!!

[clebor56]

Why should Starbucks have to compromise their general standpoint on the war by sending coffee to the troops? The soldiers are just exploiting their position to get free stuff. Surely they can afford to buy their own coffee. This is classic fascist propaghanda. What if the Iraqi's sent a request for starbucks coffee and got refused? would you feel like it was an injustice then?

Fucking BNP scum

[beowulfsword08]

Starbucks is Arab owned . It also wouldn't give free water to the NYFD when they were thirsty on 9/11

[DiabolusExMakina]

it's jew owned

[beowulfsword08]

No it's Arab owned.

[DiabolusExMakina]

Zev Siegel, one of the founders, is Jewish.

The chairman and CEO, Howard Schultz, is Jewish.

[WARISHELL09]

There is a starbucks outlet about half a mile from my house, its gonna get paint bombed very shortly ;- )

[firevorm]

Lol :)

[StBritish]

I dont go there anyway but i hope everyone eles stops going . Bunch of yanky cunts if you ask me

[chavrecycler]

Sorry kids, but this video is bullshit. Only BNP/NationalFront scum would believe this shit, because they don't go to school.

Have a look at a site called Snopes.....

Fascism relies on lies....

HEIL NICK!!!!!!!!

[firevorm]

It's a well known hoax, like Nick Griffin is.

[beowulfsword08]

Starbucks is owned by Arabs

[beowulfsword08]

Starbucks also refused to give water to the NYFD who were trying to save ppl in the WTC on 9/11. They asked the firemen to pay for a glass of water!

[WelshFromTheWest]
