A California coffee shop owner said her business was “flooded with righteous people” after coming under fire for supporting Charlie Kirk.<\/a><\/p>\n

Following the assassination of the Turning Point USA founder, Invita Caf\u00e9 in Rancho Santa Fe placed stickers on its coffee cups in his honor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Owner Sara De Luca told Fox News Digital she “didn’t think twice” about putting the stickers on the cups<\/a> beginning the Friday after Kirk’s death.<\/p>\n

STARBUCKS BARISTA DID NOT WANT TO WRITE CHARLIE KIRK’S NAME ON COFFEE CUP IN VIRAL VIDEO<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“When Israel went to war, we put on Israel stickers and started to support some of the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]. I would say that was when I was like, ‘Let’s be courageous,'” De Luca said. “But with Charlie, we had hosted him. We had met him. We’ve met Erika<\/a>,” she added, referring to Kirk’s wife.<\/p>\n

DeLuca said she didn’t even think it “could be controversial.”<\/p>\n

“Maybe it’s my ignorance,” she said. “It didn’t even cross my mind that somebody could have some sort of issue with somebody being murdered.”<\/p>\n

De Luca printed round white stickers with the words “Thank you, Charlie Kirk” and “We Love You” written on them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We’ve supported him for many, many years,” she said \u2014 but baristas told her the caf\u00e9’s phones were ringing off the hook with people saying “horrible and horrific things.”<\/p>\n

CHARLIE KIRK’S LEGACY HONORED AS CUSTOMERS FLOCK TO STEAK ‘N SHAKE IN SOLIDARITY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“We ended up having to shut down our Google page and Yelp page because we were getting an insane amount of one-star reviews,” De Luca said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She said what kept her calm was her San Diego community and her church, Awaken<\/a>, which “showed up” a few days later.<\/p>\n

“I was actually tearing [up] because I was like, ‘Where did these people come from?’ We went 312% up in sales,” De Luca said. “We were flooded with righteous people just showing up, supporting us, defending us. They were defending Charlie. Obviously, we all were.”<\/p>\n

DeLuca said her small boutique coffee shop<\/a> was soon packed with people waiting 30 to 45 minutes in line.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We didn’t have any haters show up,” she said. “It was only the righteous showing up \u2013 just God-fearing people<\/a> who are like, ‘Thank you for what you’re doing. Charlie would be proud.'”<\/p>\n

The support came not just from her community but from across the nation, she said.<\/p>\n

“We had somebody from Georgia call and say, ‘Can I just give you $500 and buy the next 100 drinks?’ Somebody walked in and left $300 and just walked out.”<\/p>\n

Invita Caf\u00e9 opened nine years ago, inspired by De Luca’s Italian family.<\/a><\/p>\n

“The idea was to kind of create a space where the espresso is the magnet that unites people, and it brings the community together and brings the traditions that I grew up with here to California,” she said.<\/p>\n

De Luca said she believes “God is so behind all of this.”<\/p>\n

“This is insane. But I think Charlie would have been proud.”<\/p>\n

The caf\u00e9<\/a> still has stickers available and even hosted Turning Point USA for a pop-up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
