I love saying that Liberals fix one problem only to create 10 others. Recently we've seen BLM and Gays clashing at Gay pride parades, as an example. We've seen the male transgender "female" athlete in CT breaking all the HS track meet records while women's rights advocates stand around in silence unable to say or do anything for fear of upsetting the Queer community or get PC ***** slapped.
Now this - Muslims calling for a boycott of the Left's favorite coffee chain Starbucks, because, well, GAY.
This is your legacy Libs. You created this mess.

Malaysia, Indonesia Muslim groups call for Starbucks boycott
Muslim groups in Malaysia and Indonesia have called for a boycott of Starbucks because of the coffee chain's support for LGBT rights.
Malaysian group Perkasa, which supports a hard-line form of Islam and nationalism, this week called on its more than 500,000 members to stay away from Starbucks coffee shops. This week and last, leaders of Indonesia's second largest mainstream Muslim group, Muhammadiyah, with an estimated 29 million members, denounced the chain.
The groups were apparently reacting to comments made several years ago by former CEO Howard Schultz in support of gay rights that drew renewed attention amid an increasingly anti-LGBT climate in both of the predominantly Muslim countries.
Perkasa said in a statement that the Malaysian government should revoke the trading license given to Starbucks and other companies such as Microsoft and Apple that support LGBT rights and same-sex marriage.
Amini Amir Abdullah, who heads Perkasa's Islamic affairs bureau, said Muslims should stay away from Starbucks because its pro-gay rights policy is against Islam and Malaysia's constitution.
Sodomy is illegal in Malaysia and punishable by up to 20 years in prison. Homosexuality is not illegal in Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim nation, but a case before the Constitutional Court is seeking to criminalize gay sex and sex outside of marriage.
