Thought experiment. Americans are quite sensitive about 9/11. For those that think people are being overly sensitive or whiny, would you dislike it if a product was displaying a crumbling tower and a little human figure jumping from the remaining tower on say a mag or a receiver?
Would it make a difference in your level of distaste if that product came out while the rubble was hot or came out tomorrow?

Irunguns, you said you did this for a customer that requested it. If I send in a deposit, will you print me a mag with my described 9/11 image?

If advertising was done right on your magazine, buy one, support our cause! Everyone take a “shot” at eliminating hiv & aids would have been a big hit if some of the sales proceeds were being donated to charity I’m sure a lot of them would have been sold and some interesting gun range conversations over it as a item that supports eliminating them and finding a cure!
I feel IRG missed a step in its marketing of this product under the current circumstances but it shows us how we are all becoming Liberals in a sense because we don’t let fact and science be our guide choices just full blown emotions!! It could be a very good magazine very well-built and function the best you have ever seen in your firearm. If it came right down to actually needing one for a life or death situation I don’t think anyone would care what was painted on it!

The fact that IRG continually supports Trump through all this BS cements that I'll never send them another penny. Sad because my first two firearms were through them as well as many mags/accessories.

Quite ridiculous that some of my fellow Canadians (as seen in this thread) prefer to be edgelords over patriotic to their own country. Trump is literally telling companies to stop sending medical supplies to us, stories of shipments being rerouted (though one was shown to be a computer glitch, not a peep on the others that are confirmed though). From the very beginning the US gov't has tried to fÙck us at every turn, from rewriting NAFTA to what we see here. Yet you still line up to suck his d1ck because he's "pro gun, brother!" (oh boy do I have a reality check for you).

Also, IRG, don't lecture us on taxes and our society when you're about to experience the very reason why we have those. You already have millions upon millions of people living paycheque to paycheque, debt up to your necks, and the fact that >70% of medically-related bankruptee's had health insurance. We have those taxes because we as a society actually care about our neighbors and their ability to remain healthy - unlike you guys which is quite ironic given how much bible-thumping goes on down south.

"Also, IRG, don't lecture". how ironic lol

And you're a good soldier, orange man bad... he's looking after his own country instead of ours even when negotiating NAFTA. Remember the T-shirts and derogatory comments the pig Trudeau wore and made while running negotiations had? Canadians were so proud and excited...
I'd suggest you watch what our govt does rather than follow Trump as the media forces on us.

Canadian health care is another losing topic, you really need to get informed on what's going on, your politicians who outlaw two tier health care and leave us with bottom level only go to the US for theirs, with our tax dollars

Back on track, some of your fellow Canadians seem to be able to cut through emotions to see facts better than you

Exactly.

I don't know if they were around in 2001 but that would have been even better timing.

They were around last year. Did I miss the Boeing 737MAX mags?

I also live in Canada, pay my taxes and work for IRUNGUNS in Canada. This mag has no political agenda, not meant to offend anyone, not meant to upset all those sensitive souls out there. A customer asked for it, I myself thought it looked badass and loved it! I am actually shocked at all the comments on here against IRUNGUNS. Really, some people need to settle down and stop taking everything so personally. Calm down people.

All messages deliver to human are carrying some personal effects, including reason, language, tone, time, places and more will also share the same dividents.

Same way you define "sensitive souls" in your post.

Everyone has emotional responses to products. Thats marketing 101. It also has nothing to do with liberalism in itself.

Having emotional responses is normal. Wanting regulations and coercive measures based on emotional response is not, and is an entirely different issue. Its not because both have the word "emotional" in it that they should both be considered responses rooted in liberalism.

Thats nonsense and quite poor discernment.

Youza.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, sorry. Taxation is linked to government spending, by its very nature. In fact our taxation isn't enough to cover our spending since we usually have a $20b or so shortfall (last I checked outside of these wild times). Absolutely it's unofficially our job to help our clients pay the minimum, but you're still paying the tax that the government mandated you do - that's what the original paragraph says; our tax is higher. Not that I'm making my clients pay more than they should.

So did you, offensiveness is subjective and in the mind of individuals. Any comparison can be picked apart but this core fact can't. I gave you a concrete example of this but you didn't seem to grasp it. In other words, everybody's level of sensitivity is different but no one has the right to not be offended. Hissy fits and virtue signalling are not productive and sometimes embarrassing

I think the people talking about "whining" "hurt feelings" and "political correctness" are missing the mark.

There are people who have lost their jobs, and there are people who have family members dying of this. This is a kick in the nuts to those people. This product is taking those people, who are at a huge low in their lives, and trivializing the source of their anguish.

Some people try to bring up people who are suffering, some people try and bring them down, and some people don't give a #### about people and just want to sell a product.

What kind of people run IRG?

Adults with dark senses of humor I'd bet. Not that there's anything wrong with that

Finding that something is distasteful and of poor judgement in a specific context is not the equivalent of taking it personal.

This combined with IRG's earlier poor understanding of what constitutes deflection, amongst a few other things, only reinforces my perception that IRG is terrible with words, marketing, and communications in general.

Youza.

This from the guy trying to conflate political correctness with politics, unless I miss-skimmed the post lol

Only if you believe that Canadian gun owners are a bunch of whiny, fragile babies with no sense of humour. This string is full of that type but most of my friends are not like that especially the gunnie ones
