This will hurt BRCC in a big way.

Do you know who Black Rifle Coffee Company is?

1) Anybody who drinks BRCC (including me) won't be offended by this.

2) Anybody who doesn't drink BRCC will be offended and will continue to not drink BRCC.

I don't see much change in their business.

So the whole "We're a bunch of former Spec-Ops badasses who had to make our own coffee because all the other coffee was being made by Che-shirt wearing pussies" is just a schtick.

Copy that.

Too bad I can’t boycott them since I don’t drink coffee.

If they stood sting I would be ordering tosay. Unfortunately no one has learned from Trader Joes and Trump. Tell them to stuff it. Of course I fully expect God Forbid a Biden IRS anfmd DOJ to go after every conservative business. I don’t think they’re planning to play the bagpipes for 4 years.

I would really like to hear more about this story. Mat Best and Evan Hafer (CEO of BRCC) just did a Halloween video about blowing up and killing “purgees” that were obvious references to Antifa. It’s possible that the Fox story is true (and BRCC deserves the hate coming), but I don’t trust any media. I’d wait a few days to see how BRCC responds.

Their coffee costs more than a buck a k cup.

Their whole schtick, to get people to pay that inflated price, is to claim they are very pro-2A.

They turn tail and run from the Kyle Rittenhouse subject.

So if they aren’t Pro-2A, why should anyone continue buying their coffee? They are a scam.

I bought some of their whole bean coffee one time, but it seemed like the grounds were very flaky and I had to use a lot of grounds to get any flavor in the brewed coffee. We much prefer Starbucks Komodo Dragon. BRCC sends me emails and next time I receive one, I will explain to them that I disagree with their decision to cease a sponsorship over the Rittenhouse kid.

Apparently you didn't read beyond the headline.

https://www.sltrib.com/news/2020/11/21/utah-coffee-company-faces/

A spokesperson for the coffee company told The Salt Lake Tribune on Saturday afternoon that the company was terminating its sponsorship of Slightly Offens*ve, but late Saturday, she said she had misunderstood.

"We are not fluctuating our ad spend," she said in a text message. "We did have a conversation with Schaffer, and he understands that the post was a mistake."

Earlier in the day, she had said: "We don't traffic in national tragedy and to us, that's what this is. We are not legal experts or members of law enforcement. We fully support all law enforcement officials and believe in the integrity of the legal system."

After clarifying the company's continuing sponsorship of Blaze Media, she added: "Our concern is that use of the discount code in the post did not reflect our values. That’s a concern we've addressed with the journalist and that he understands."

People need to realize the military is not the same as it was in Vietnam. It’s not even the same as it was in the 1990s. Yeah the majority of combat vets are still conservative good old boys, but the senior officer corps and POGs are not.
