From Yahoo and other sources. Black Rifle Coffee pledges to hire 10,000 veterans in response to Starbucks pledge to hire 10,000 immigrants.

Tip of the hat for making the statement regardless of their ability to succeed.

Ephesians 6:12 NKJV

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,[a] against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Headline should have been Starbucks refuses to hire 10,000 Americans. Even my wife quit Starbucks.

I have never understood how Starbucks stays in business. Not due to their politics but because of their nasty tasting over priced coffee. I wish their politics would put them out of business.

I never heard of Black Rifle Coffee but looking at their selection and price, I think I just switched my morning habit to a new brew.

We've all been there. That moment when we ask for black coffee and the person behind the counter begins speaking in a tongue native to only those with flowers in their beards. We are here to save you from tight pants, wide frame glasses, and haircuts that would make a bowl and scissors seem like a viable option. Introducing Just Black. A regular coffee for regular people. No frills, no froth, no foam, and no dialects that require a translator. Just. Black. Coffee. Our JB roast is perfect for your drip machine.

I have never heard of them, but I'm about to order some coffee.

It looks like the word has circulated quickly, and that this outfit may have a huge growth curve it its future: "Due to an increase in demand for Black Rifle Coffee, customers will experience delays of two weeks in shipping timelines."

All of their extra dark roasts are sold out right now, which is what I would normally shop for. But I just ordered the "V-TAC Berserker Blend" to try.

I just ordered the Knife Hand blend.
I also sent an email outlining the reasons they should open up stores and distribution centers in Texas.
Would love to see them move operations this way.

Just saw this on their website :
DUE TO AN INCREASE IN DEMAND FOR BLACK RIFLE COFFEE CUSTOMERS WILL EXPERIENCE DELAYS OF TWO WEEKS IN SHIPPING TIMELINES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
Good job, all!

ETA: Skiprr beat me to the quote. The, ahem, extra caffeinated Medium Roast is what I'll be looking at on my next re-up of coffee.
