Not Gonna Drop It

Sorry, Starbucks: You Are in This Debate [More]

Paul Helmke recommends that if at first you don't succeed, whine, whine again.

The gun extremist want an America where there are guns everywhere: not just in coffeehouses, but also in bars, churches, parks, banks and classrooms.

Yeah--can you imagine how horrible it would have been if Karolina Obrycka, Jeanne Assam, Nabil Fawzi and Michael Minto had been armed?

Damned gun extremists.

Some of us have advocated dropping the Starbucks issue. Pagina et al. are intent on not letting that happen.

OK, if we can't avoid a fight, then let's disarm the assailant. Their biggest weapon is their dumb ass petition, up now to an astonishingly pathetic 28,000 online signups that can't be verified against real people?

Fine--continue to erode whatever credibility they represent it to have. Just like with IANSA's stupid Million Moon March, I recommend tainting the results.

And thing is--this is the second time I've signed it--so they're evidently not excluding multiple entries. I wonder if that's what some of their staff does all day?
