I’m surprised no one has started this pit rant yet, but…

Yes, Starbucks actually charged a firefighter $130 for three cases of water for the victims he was treating in the aftermath of the attacks, and only offered to pay it back AFTER receiving negative press for their inhuman action.

Cocksucking, assmunching, ratfuckers.
