Fenix Ammunition, a Michigan-based ammo manufacturer, decided recently to stop selling its product to people who voted for President Joe Biden. As a way to weed out the unwanted customers, the company reportedly inserted a questionnaire into its purchasing process that asks whether prospective customers voted for Biden in the 2020 presidential election. If they did, it's no sale for them. In a series of tweets posted this week, Fenix Ammunition explained that while it is perfectly willing to engage in a discussion with Biden voters, the company does not plan to conduct business with them.

When there’s 10x the demand you can supply, you can afford to isolate 5% of your customer base. Good marketing too.

Hopefully they are keeping a registry of these people so that they can continue to deny them when they answer no on their next attempt to purchase.

Virginia is conservative 96% by land mass. But Washington DC early on attracted money, and money attracts more money and people willing to sell their souls to acquire money. Honestly or otherwise people will begin to turn their heads and ignore their conscience when they can make slam good money selling their land or their home in Northern Virginia. I've heard it said hundreds of times before... I don't care if they're a Democrat, or worthless government worker or if they butt fugh their own poodle... I am making bank on the sale of this home or land... and I am out of here. Conversations like that are happening all over Idaho, Montana and Texas right now. Costa Rica as well. Nobody is really at fault and most people really won't lose sleep over it. Lots of people know they're selling out to the enemy. Some do not. Shame on those that willingly give quarter, Aid and comfort to the enemy. And hoorah for those that refused to sell ammunition do Democrats.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I've had personal dealings with Fenix and don't care for them. I don't know why the flashlight company hasn't gone after their name.

Publicity and self promotion on their part.
Sounds like a good jab but
CowboyTim and the Fudds would lie their way through the survey just to get what they want.

Should make 'em show proof of a donation to a Conservative campaign.
Romney, Murkoski et. al. notwithstanding.

When supply is thin you support your loyal customers first. I believe it, self promotion is a good business plan, hype, noise and publicity is better than a neon sign. Ever watched a slimeball attorney work a crowd or go table to table at a restaurant in a small town?
