Please read the story appearing on the MSN Homepage, this morning, November 9, 2015. Starbucks has removed their "Merry Christmas" and their vintage icons, like reindeer, Santa Clause and "Merry Christmas" due to a few complaints (very few). They have kept the traditional red color.
Upon calling the Customer Information Line (1-800-235-2883) I advised them that: ( BE POLITE!!)
1. 95% of the American people LOVE THE CHRISTMAS SEASON, whether they are Jewish, Christian or atheists!!
2. Santa Clause, Christmas Trees, Reindeer, etc. are not in the bible, are not religious, but are "secular" in nature, and part of the AMERICAN CULTURE, and loved by nearly all peoples.
3. We all have Jewish friends we send "Happy Hanukkah" cards to, and they wish us a "Merry Christmas"!! The only people who have a war against Hanukkah and Christmas are the Secular Humanists!!! And they only make up 2% of the population.
So why would Starbucks cater to their so called "being offended"? (which we all know is merely a ruse to erase anything that even remotely has to do with religion from our culture).
When 95% of the customers really really like something Starbucks is doing, why would they remove it??
4. Doing nothing is a vote against our culture! Be part of the "remedy". Please contact Starbucks and ask they restore their vintage icons and put "Happy Hanukkah", and Merry Christmas back on their cups!!! Starbucks replied to me that if they get enough complaints, they will restore "Christmas" and "Hanukkah", and Christmas Trees to their proper place on the cups in December.

If one million people call or email Starbucks about restoring "Christmas", "Hanukkah", and the vintage icons from their cups------and they still don't respond, then know they are just another corporation "going Global" like Target has (target substituted blue and silver as their new Christmas colors 3 years ago, and erased all references to Hanukkah and Christmas from their stores.) I have now stopped spending money at Target, and go to Fred Meyer or Bartell's at Christmas time.
Please pass this on!!
