whoa… one ammo company reacts to the death of California Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
“To celebrate the death of @SenFeinstein, we’re offering free shipping on ammunition to California customers today through October 31st,” the company tweeted Friday morning.

Fenix Ammunition responded to one commenter who said that an appropriate response to Feinstein’s death would be prayer — which it most certainly would be.
The company wrote back, “Forgiveness is between her and God.”
“Dianne Feinstein would have sent an ATF kill squad to your house and murdered your entire family for refusing to surrender your AR-15, if it was up to her, and she would not have shed a tear,” Fenix Ammunition wrote.
The company added, “So, you can spare me the talk of forgiveness and civility.”
She is a human being. It is fine if you don’t like what see stood for. But to hate another human being is a sign of hate. Let’s try not to promote hate for human beings let’s promote hate for hate.
I do not see it as promoting hate so much as showing a companies response/view of things…
the left often does similar things??? not saying it is right or wrong…
just putting it out there for folks to see… here again is their response…

and suggest everyone start paying attention to the atmosphere or under lying thought process many seem to be reaching lately???
as in things are starting to get ugly/heated…
ignoring such things could catch us some what flat footed???
I am no fan of Senator Feinstein, especially for her efforts to turn law abiding citizens into defenseless victims. But I do think this marketing gimmick is in poor taste. It will just help feed into the anti self defense groups’ messaging of firearm owners as blood thirsty people who want everyone they disagree with to end up dead. I personally believe that is more true for many members of the left leaning anti self defense groups but actions like this play into their hands not ours.
As for me I send my condolences to the Senator’s family though must say I am glad she is no longer in the Senate where her handlers can tell her to vote for laws that violate our natural and constitutional rights. Hopefully her replacement will be more concerned with the safety of their constituents than the safety of the criminals who threaten them. Though CA being CA I suspect they will choose someone even worse.
My comments were directed completely at the companies actions and statements not at your post.
I think this is a worthy discussion to have and a good place to have it. In the age of viral sound bites it is important to think about how our words and actions will be perceived by broader audiences and not just in our own similarly aligned groups and customer bases.
For instance they could have been a little more diplomatic giving their condolences but offering a sale for freedom loving self defenders. Both sides would get the irony but neither would have the self affirming sound bites.
But of course it would not have gotten anywhere near the same amount of publicity so would have been a far less effective marketing ploy. I suspect getting their name out was likely their true motivation for the controversial message. Thus my opinion that it is poor taste to use the death of even a person who has tried to do you immeasurable harm as a way to increase sales or support. That is the biggest issue I have with capitalism, and all the other isms, they tend to put personal and/or group gain ahead of just doing the right thing.
In the long run it is better to attack the message even though it is easier to attack the messenger when they present a short term opportunity. I try to focus on the former even though I fall into the trap of the latter far more often than I should.
There is truth in what you said however there is also truth at pointing out wrong even if it died. Maybe a good compromise would have be to let it sit for a cpl months first. As the saying goes: if you don’t learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it.
I don’t believe anyone here “hates” her. We strongly dislike everything she stood for regarding our RKBA. She made it personal in her attacks against those that believe in the RKBA. She had no issue with wanting to turn us all into felons. Her level of vileness makes anyone that believes in our inalienable rights, despise her. She wanted to, and did, pass unconstitutional laws to hurt us, not help us. She deserves no respect, nor well-wishes. She certainly had none for us.
If there is a God, Heaven, and Hell, I hope she meets her well-desreved eternal damnation. If not, I’m just glad she’s dead.
My take on her death is simply this;
I didn’t know her personally, but through her efforts to poison everyone around her, as well as her concerted efforts to make felons out of gun owners, (instead of actual felons), and her personal contributions toward the death of the once great state of California, I am pretty sure that Satan is welcoming her home.
Based on your posts, I believe you are a good, caring and loving man, and I respect you and admire your devotion to removing hate in the world.
I think what you’re seeing here is hatred of what she did and what she stood for. I do believe that God is not okay with us hating other people, but I also believe He is fine with us hating evil actions, and what she did in trying to disarm innocent, good people and leave them defenseless is truly reprehensible. We can hate what she did and stood for and not offend God. Christ hated people’s sins.
Welcome to the community.
So are we. The Lord says to love everyone. Just because it is difficult doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it. I like a challenge. RIP
I have no problem promoting hate, as long as it isn’t hate for another person. I hate the things she did. That is the hate we should be promoting. To wrongs don’t make a right.
I understand what you’re saying but there comes a time when you have to make a stand against evil. We’re told in the Bible: Matthew 7:6 NKJV“Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.
I have watched this very thing since the late ‘60s and forward. Now it’s coming to a head and I don’t want my America radically changed to quote obozo. We can see this happening in our schools teaching our children to be commies, the dumbo-craps doing exactly what they claim to not be and antifa going about looting and burning without repercussions. Every one of those SOBs should have been shot! We are letting animals turn on us us all and rend our society to pieces. Now the big question:
What will we as a country, a society and individuals do when we have been so weakened because we let china and the Mexican cartels murder 300 of our citizens a day from fentanyl, we allow millions of abortions a year and have trained our children to hate America? Let’s not even start with foreign countries sneaking in their special forces across the southern border just waiting for the word from their governments to start taking out targets putting our nation on its knees taking a decade or two to rebuild.
I’m preparing and stocking up and I’ll be prepared to defend it. Are you? Unless I go up in a mushroom cloud because an Army base is a mile away; I will be ready.
. They are celebrating her death. That IS a form of prayer.
