Default American Ammo Dealer stops selling to people who voted for a pro gun control candidate

There is an American company that is not selling to people who voted for Biden Voters.

They have a box on there page that asks who you voted for and if you click Biden they reroute you to his gun policy on his web site.

Good clip, I enjoyed the second part of it too .... interesting discussion (but for another thread).

If a company chooses who they sell to, that is their right. In principle, and in this case, I applaud them.

However, I am a hypocrite too, because I agree with this sentiment as long as it's not based on discriminations - and although this may not be racial, religious, etc... it is based on one's political ideologies. But, on the flip side, this is a private company. And you KNOW that this will compel a lawsuit by someone choosing to turn this into a circus.

Good video, interesting discussion. It's not so "cut and dry"

And that works 1 time before the customer clicks the other button.

But they admit being an idiot, and hypocrite, by hitting the other button

And who is there to publicly shame them for their admission? Pretty sure a click of the back button and they’re able to change their answer without anyone but them knowing before continuing their purchase with minimal disruption. Unless of course this company has some way of listing their IP and home addresses as well as secretly activating the computers camera to get pictures of the hypocrites making their purchase before posting it all over the inter web for their gun hating anti freedom communist godless friends to see...

It’s their country to run as they see fit, however a secret ballot is still one important cornerstone of a free democracy.

After seeing the video,I don't think this company would shame them and post it all over the web.
The guy is willing to go for a 45 minute conversation to try to convince the lady.
Nice video, worth watching!

Exclamation Makes for a good video, but

He's wasting his time if the people he's trying to educate about their hypocrisy are anything like our well meaning progressives and red (fake) conservatives.

I applaud the company if I could buy their product I would.
Maybe Canadian companies should ask the same Question as to whether people voted for JT or not,? I am sure many on this very forum would have to hit the back button before they went through check out. But that is another discussion.
