Increased Discounts for Law Enforcement and First Responders

I suppose its my fault for expecting you guys to understand nuanced discussions and debates, or impartial third party discussion.

Does it make it easier to ignore the blatant contradiction if you attack me personally? Because I’m not stating a position of my own, merely that this itself is not a-political like was claimed.


Once again its telling that those who benefited from such a discount dont see it as a political statement. Fudd by any other name

I don't benefit in any way from first responder discounts. I certainly don't see the statement as political. A company feels that their best customers are at higher risk during these times of turmoil, and because of that are trying to help defray the cost of protection. Trying to spin that into politics lacks logic. The business has gone out of it's way to avoid politics with each response.

Let me give you another chance here, since you think making a declaration means its true. Not acknowledging something, and outright denying it doesn’t negate its political nature.

A flat discount to everyone would be apolitical. A first responder discount is inherently pro-government, increasing that at the time when blm and protests for police reform are ongoing its undeniably pro-government. At a time when these are the same people that will be going door to door to steal from citizens is also tone deaf for this audience.

You guys getting the discounts seem to have a very questionable understanding of the definition of “apolitical”...
 
So your giving further discounts to LEO who at this time is on board with prohibiting the product you sell, but zero for people that have supported your business for years? I guess that makes sense as pretty soon LEO will be your only customer

Most police officers that are actually into shooting sports are against the ban. The problem is the broader leadership has been infected with extreme radical leftist/marxist ideology as have almost all government organizations in Canada. Certain forces literally have "Diversity Units" in which they pay officers who make upwards of 6 figures a year to work in these units. Instead of defunding the police they should make sure that the budget is actually going towards policing not allowing them to basically have a glorified PR department that flies rainbow flags. Sorry for the rant but your average cop is not the problem its the leadership and overall corporate marxist culture which has infected most western organizations. Just as an example, a certain police force in Ontario reduced the budget for their officers gear and increased spending in paper pushing PR units. This resulted in their gear being downgraded to Chinese made ####.

Due to the craziness in the US and how it is spilling up here, we are offering an increased discount for any police or first responder. You deserve to have protection in these tumultuous times and to that end we are doubling our standard police and first responder discount. Let us know if there is anything else we can do or anything else you might need and we will do our best to make sure we do it and you get it.

I do not agree with this increase of a discount nor do approve of your post.
I will not purchasing anything from your business in response.

Not just that, but we who don't have overpaid government jobs will be paying for that discount given to others if we shop there.

people who do not work for the government but are in need of protection means (vests, plates, etc) benefit from these discounts also ..
they are for use by people who are professionally involved ..
 
Why discount to those with huge safe incomes and benefits that working folks will never get?. And most of them are happy to bully, sorry, I mean enforce petty rules and smile while they fine you for a few miles over a limit etc. And most don't even have PALs. Totally happy to serve the dictator who happens to be sitting in the power chair.

Regular folks need the break, not these over paid lacky boys.
 
Bad timing on the increased discount .........maybe should have gone with “we are all in it together” sale/discount??? For everyone?
 
#defundthepolice - big movement right now

I thought you were out? Couldn't leave it alone eh. This is the biggest group of wankers I have seen on this site in some time. Defund the police? How bout you hero's come and do our job for a few days and see the real world. You can then come back to cgn with an actual informed opinion instead of one spoon fed you by the left Liberal spin doctors and their lackeys in the media. Brutal, you guys should be ashamed of yourselves for turning this thread into cop bashing. A supporting business has chosen to do something nice for a segment of the gun community and all the wanna bees pile on because they don't get the same discount or the same equipment that some of us need to do our jobs. And I can tell you first hand, this crap you are currently been fed regarding police brutality etc in this country is 99.99999 % BS. When the smoke clears and the truth comes out, there will be an awful lot of people eating crow around here. You guys are disgusting.
 
I agree with the comments from post #72 (I’m sure there is more comments but haven’t read through them all). In my opinion the main front line workers that deserve the discount are hospital/healthcare and paramedics. What has changed with regards to regular duties for police and fire? For the people saying protective armor/chest plates. If it’s required for their job the govt will provide it for them. I know it’s not an easy job that the first responders have but they are paid well for it and please forgive me if I’m wrong or offend but all the thank you first responder signs and extra discount signs I see everywhere for them in a way doesn’t make sense to me. Nothing has changed for them except again the paramedics and hospital/healthcare workers. I think everyone deserves a discount.
 
Did you expect more reasonable thought from someone who couldn't spell lynching?

What are you the grammar police? Get a grip and contribute something constructive and intelligent to this forum for a change. I challenge you to do so.

It might be hard to comprehend but some police officers in fact many, invest in upgraded equipment that their employer does not provide. Typically we get the bare minimum when it comes to personal safety so we augment issued kit with privately purchased equipment of all kinds. This allows us a higher level of safety and security while on the job dealing with the wackos you all get to read about in the papers or watch on the news. I like to go home safe to my family at the end of shift.
 
Your an !+^&t. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good linching. None of those allegations are proven in court. Remember innocent until proven guilty unless that only applies to certain segments of our society..

Remember your own words... innocent until proven guilty. Just remember that the next time you arrest someone. Do you also have this going through your head every time you make an arrest?
I know where your coming from because if the guy was acting like a perfect citizen there would be no reason for the police to be dealing with him in the first place. You gotta remember that you are in a site where the majority of us are not officers and when you puff your chest out, calling names, it’s not a good look for you or the police at all. In my years I have met many officers who were great stand up people and I have also met some who were not. Which one are you?

This I never knew. I thought everything was provided
