Ammo company stands firm after offering Feinstein death discount: Choose ‘Good Riddance, Dianne’ at checkout!
The Left’s Hypocrisy: Outrage Over Ammo Company’s Promotion to Mark Dianne Feinstein’s Death
The same American left that reacted to the death of conservative radio icon Rush Limbaugh by making “Rest in P***” trend on Twitter is now irate that an ammo company is having a promotion to mark the death of California Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
Feinstein died Thursday at the age of 90 after a career opposing gun rights while simultaneously supporting abortion. News of her death followed months of calls for her to resign amid health concerns.
While she died on Thursday, news of her death was not announced until early Friday morning. One Michigan company immediately announced that it would offer free shipping on ammunition to customers in California to “celebrate” her passing.
Would this promotion be something I would ever endorse or concoct? Not in a million years.
But Michigan’s Fenix Ammunition seized on the Democrat’s death with a “Good riddance” promotion that it said will run through Halloween.
“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 added, “Simply select ‘Good Riddance, Dianne’ at checkout! Evil authoritarians should be mocked in death the same as they are in life. No quarter.”

The company also commented on a post that was honoring the late senator to promote its free shipping deal.
“Free shipping to all California customers in celebration!” the company wrote.

The promotion and the open mocking of the death of Feinstein drew condemnation from many people who came across it.
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.”
Forgiveness is between her and God.

In another post, the company doubled down on its celebration of Feinstein’s passing.
“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.”

Some predictably called on Fenix Ammunition to be stripped of its free speech:
Please report this tweet for hate speech. https://t.co/06IyJQT5l0

I’m a firm believer in respect for the dead, and I hope for the eternal salvation of those I am personally repulsed by. Plus, whoever replaces Feinstein will be equally radical on guns, if not more so.
It is not as though a world without her will protect rights that are enshrined in our Constitution.
But those at Fenix Ammunition see things differently, which is their right.
As a matter of human impulse, it’s hard to fault people for playing by the left’s rules. The way liberals disrespected Hollywood legend and Second Amendment proponent Charlton Heston after his 2008 death comes to mind.
But my Christian soul makes me feel queasy about this promotion.
The left, of course, loves to shamelessly celebrate the deaths of its political opponents. As a matter of principle, I think we on the right are, and must be, better.
But there is one thing that is impossible to deny — whoever markets for Fenix Ammunition brought their employer a ton of attention on Friday morning.
I had never heard of the company until after Feinstein’s death was announced, and judging from its social media engagements, Fenix is currently selling a lot of ammunition in the Golden State.

How does the left’s reaction to Dianne Feinstein’s death compare to their reaction to the passing of conservative figure Rush Limbaugh?
The Left’s Hypocrisy: Outrage Over Ammo Company’s Promotion to Mark Dianne Feinstein’s Death
The American left’s hypocrisy has once again been on full display as they react to the death of California Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein. The same left that responded to the passing of conservative radio icon Rush Limbaugh by making ”Rest in P***” trend on Twitter is now irate about an ammo company having a promotion to mark the death of Feinstein.
Feinstein, who died at the age of 90, had spent her career opposing gun rights while simultaneously supporting abortion. Her death followed months of calls for her resignation due to health concerns. While news of her death was not announced until early Friday morning, a Michigan company, Fenix Ammunition, wasted no time in announcing a promotion offering free shipping on ammunition to customers in California to “celebrate” her passing.
Let it be clear that I do not endorse or support this promotion in any way. The idea of celebrating someone’s death is abhorrent to me. However, Fenix Ammunition seized on the opportunity presented by Feinstein’s death and launched a “Good riddance” promotion that would run through Halloween.
“To celebrate the death of @SenFeinstein, we’re offering free shipping on ammunition to California customers today through October 31st,” the company tweeted on Friday morning. They added, “Simply select ‘Good Riddance, Dianne’ at checkout! Evil authoritarians should be mocked in death the same as they are in life. No quarter.”
The company also took advantage of a post honoring the late senator to promote its free shipping deal. “Free shipping to all California customers in celebration!” they wrote.
The promotion and the open mocking of Feinstein’s death have sparked condemnation from many on the left. Yet, it is interesting to note the double standard at play here. When Rush Limbaugh passed away, left-wing activists flooded social media with hateful wishes for his demise, making “Rest in P***” trend on Twitter. There was no widespread outrage or condemnation from the left at that time.
This is not the first time we have witnessed such hypocrisy from the left. They claim to be proponents of tolerance, inclusion, and compassion, yet they are quick to express hateful and spiteful sentiments towards those with whom they disagree. It seems that their outrage is selective and only applies when it suits their narrative.
In conclusion, the left’s outrage over an ammo company’s promotion to mark Dianne Feinstein’s death is a clear display of their hypocrisy. While I do not condone or support the promotion, it is important to recognize that the left’s outrage is often one-sided and driven by their own agenda. It is time for them to examine their own actions and hold themselves to the same standards they expect from others.
