Of course Starbucks says it is providing this list as general information only and not as an obligation on their part to actually close these stores.  Perhaps because they knew some people would protest some of the closures?  Seattle takes it’s Starbucks seriously afterall, they are collecting signatures to save a store there.

Want to save yours?  Good luck, but here’s your starting point: Save Our Starbucks

Starbucks has recently introduced a new version of their logo which features a topless mermaid with her legs spread, which has caused outrage from a nation wide Christian media watchdog organization. The Resistance, with has over 3000 members nationwide, is boycotting Starbucks across the country saying their new logo is inappropriate.

The Starbucks logo has a naked woman on it with her legs spread like a prostitute, explains Mark Dice, founder of the group. Need I say more? It’s extremely poor taste, and the company might as well call themselves, Slutbucks.

Starbuck cup, naughty mermaid?

I kind of like her, guess I’m going to hell :P
