However, I don't get coffee at Starbucks anyway, and would urge people to instead support a local indie mom-and-pop coffee shop.
Boycotting as a form of protest is un-American?

Your opinion is noted.

Why would you boycott the ex-CEO of something?

My family has been boycotting them for years now. After they refused the police of Philadelphia to use their bathrooms. Gotta Google the exact year this occurred though as memory forgot but I do remember the incident. Besides, their coffee was too expensive anyhow
