A Michigan ammo company vows not to sell ammunition to Biden voters…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…and puts its marketing where its mouth is<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Are you really willing to walk away from a paying customer simply because they voted for Joe Biden?” the company asked rhetorically. “Yes, yes we are. We’re dead serious.”<\/p>

“We don’t want your money, and you shouldn’t want us to have it because we’re going to use it to make more ammo, sell it to the citizenry, and do everything in our power to prevent Joe Biden’s administration from usurping the rights of Americans,” the company wrote.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Not just its marketing, but its sales portal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a way to weed out the unwanted customers, the company reportedly inserted a questionnaire into its purchasing process that asks whether prospective customers voted for Biden in the 2020 presidential election. If they did, it’s no sale for them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Some “progressive” companies led the way with partisan-based marketing after Trump’s election – Penzey’s very publicly told conservatives (not just Trump voters) to stop patronizing them (a request I could not comply with, as I’ve never shopped there before, either – which makes sense; I suspect their demographics, well-to-do white urbanites with lots of disposable income, overlaps with GOP voters only incidentally). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TL:dr<\/strong> – The good news: fighting cancel culture is a good thing, and I applaud Feniks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bad-ish news? Feniks is just as sold out of all stock as every other ammo shop<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
