I received an Email today from Brownells with the above title. The content of the email shows an AR receiver surrounded by wisps of smoke. I may be reading too much in to this, but does anyone besides myself find it inappropriate to link their marketing strategy to a day devoted to drug use? I have always considered Brownells to be a company that responsibly represented the firearms community. As a country have we come this far that this is now mainstream?

I've got real problems to worry about, I don't need to manufacture more.

Nope, could give a fuck less how Brownells markets it sales items. If it makes you uncomfortable buy someplace else in my opinion. YMMV

Good Lord. The only reason it is "most deadly", is because it is the most common. |

I'd say show some evidence, but I don't really care. I predict this thread will turn to shit; and I already regret posting in it. I am now leaving this thread. Hope the rest of you enjoy it. |

I feel this is a good thing we need to stop sending people to jail for bull shit. It's good to encourage drug use? The highlighted part is what I responded to. It said "As a country we come this far that this is mainstream?" Nowhere does it say anything about encouraging just that it has become mainstream. Alcohol advertisements are plastered everywhere are you appalled by this as well? The more the overton window moves towards the center on this subject the better in my opinion. |

I read this thread, but then forgot what the OP was complaining about.

Maybe they quit doing randoms and that's why the shipping sucks.
I bet a stoner came up with the EDGE program. |

Hahahaha! Fucking
Who gives a fuck? Well besides the OP. Don't do business with them? Or maybe buy something from them and then write "Tight ass!" on it and then sue because "they" wrote something offensive about you! Think of the go find me you'd get! Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
