    No one is complaining about being forced to buy it.
    We're simply pointing out this is incredibily distasteful considering the global bodycount.
    We're allowed to tell a company that we don't like what they do and should be better than this, are we not?

    Youza.

    As a health care provider and a shooter,I find those in incredibly poor taste and the timing of the release couldn’t be worse.What were they (not) thinking?

    Guns have killed people, stop buying guns.
    The message is all in how you twist the emotional response.

    Dont like it = dont buy it. Move on.

    Sure, you're allowed to do whatever you like, but people are allowed to think you're being over sensitive for wanting a word banned. Don't buy the product and if other people feel the same way they wont buy the product. That should send the message.

    Just an idea?!
    Charge $25 US for them and donate $10 from each sale to some hospital for supplies or a charity?!!
    You could then say something like “ Join the fight against Covid19 “
    And not come across to some people as heartless, tasteless profiteers.
    Just an idea!?
    Ps. I am a customer and very grateful for your services!

    Of course we wont buy it if we dont like it. Thanks captain obvious.
    In the mean time IRG has a paid forum to interact with customers, and customers speak their mind to businesses they deal with.
    Nothing unfair or misguided about that.

    Edit : there is a huge difference between demonizing guns by association to unrelated events, and designing something that specifically identifies a virus that is killing hundreds of thousands of people. As stated prior : would you be saying the same thing if it said "leukemia" with infant skulls on it? I dont think so. Its no different.

    Youza.

    Cold, heartless, ruthless. As a lover of dark humor though, I've ordered two.

    As a realist, the virus is going to do what it's going to do. I think we should do everything we can to mitigate and help the healthcare system-- at the same time, I'll buy stuff that makes me smirk.

    I think if it didnt look 'cartoony' and a portion of the sale was going to some donation then people would have no problem with this.
    As it stands I think people think irunguns is mocking the whole virus situation.

    We dont have to clutch our pearls too tightly here but poor taste is poor taste. An item displaying falling 9/11 towers would be considered poor taste, even 20 years later.

    I hope irunguns understands why.
