Well, Black Rifle Coffee, that was stupid, wasn't it?... "We do not support Kyle Rittenhouse or his legal defense efforts".

Folgers Columbian roast here. I used to be a BRCC subscriber, but money for that has gone elsewhere. I do like their coffee though, and will buy a bag every now and then from the local gun store.
 
Folgers is pretty good. We reused coffee grounds in the field.

Toss them next to the back porch when you clean the pot out and it will be a good place to dig earth worms for fishing.

A buddy growing up old hillbilly grandmother did that and whenever we wanted to go fishing we'd swing by Granny's rock cabin and dig up a Folger's can of worms.
Any coffee grounds will work though, worms aren't coffee snobs, either

Columbian is my goto, the black silk is pretty good too if you like a dark roast.
 
I agree. His CEO level response, in my view, failed to resolve the cluster of the initial BRCC response.

He needed to deliver a clear and tangible position statement. Instead, he sounded like a politician.
He’s a former Green Beret, he’s trained to be a politician if need be. I think they are so far gone with their bro shit, while selling themselves on the 2a. They totally forgot who the average 2a supporter is, and what we face everyday. Not everyone is hanging out with machine guns and tanks while getting matching tattoos. It isn’t what they said it’s how they said it plus the other stuff coming out. Anybody have any info on why his buddy would call Kyle a girlfriend beater?
 

Something that was brought up about the donations. If you want the short version skip to 4 min.
 
They served like many here. They sell a product with a claim/projection to protect 2A yet when it matters they don't protect. The patch they wore free the opressed I guess is for other counties not ours.
This 17yo did what he was supposed to do by retreating until he couldn't. Not one thing about felons with firearms and the "free the oppressed" guy has decided that money is most important.
IRONIC fuck them with a barbed wire dildo
 
It appears this is why they called him a gf beater. Yet is the person in the video even his gf, I can’t find anything to back that up. If I hear the guys in video right she had already hit someone. Can only find clips on lib sites so read carefully. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/kyle-rittenhouse-video-kenosha-shooter-punch-girl-a9702206.html?amp
What a great hit piece that was (sarcasm, for those that need it spelled out for them)! This is not an informed news report, it is propaganda, plain and simple. If anyone reading that had followed the actual events or done any looking into the actual videos of the event, they would recognize it as such.


Videos taken on the night of the protest appear to show Mr Rittenhouse shooting and killing Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, after the man seems to throw a plastic bag in his direction. Mr Rittenhouse is believed to have then called a friend, told him he'd killed someone, and run down a street while protesters chased after him.
Mr Rittenhouse stumbled while attempting to flee. Another protester, Anthony Huber, ran up to him and hit him with a skateboard while trying to grab his gun, but the teen apparently shot him in the chest, killing him. The teen then allegedly shot into the crowd, hitting another protester, Gaige Grosskreutz, in the arm. Mr Grosskreutz was holding a hand gun in the video.”

I know, however I can only find clips of the altercation on lib sites, and said so in my post.

I know and appreciate that. 👍🏻 I did not post to take a swipe at you, I just wanted to quote that section of the article to show how much less it was about news and how much more it was written to influence opinion against Kyle without any factual information or research behind it. That was for all of the readers who don’t bother reading complete articles when they see links and only jump on the bandwagon. It’s all too common.

I missed a lot of the goings on over this (thankfully). I will say this though... Not supporting or wanting to get involved with the political BS over the Kenosha Kid I get, and I think it’s stupid to abandon a company that support veterans over such a stance is stupid.

HOWEVER, recent revelations about Even Hafer’s political donation history is different. Hafer is the founder and CEO and is as much the face of the company as Mat Best is. When your company’s brand is built on vet-bro gun culture, to monetarily support politicians actively seeking to undermine our rights is unacceptable. At that point it becomes about more than coffee. I don’t know for sure that the Evan Hafer listed by ActBlue is the same BRCC Evan Hafer, but that did get my attention in a way that the stupidity over the Kenosha Kid did not. If it turns out that Hafer is one and the same, then yes, I will be finding a new coffee company.

Gun-bro-ism is just like bro-country...

Country music is not defined by having "OH BABY GIRL", "OLD TOWN", "TRUCKS", and "DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW" every couple fucking lines in the lyrics. Bro culture has damaged gun culture just as much as it has damaged country music traditions.

The Second Amendment was not written so we can take pics of ourselves posing with guns out in a desert and acting like fools to market overpriced merchandise...

Well, fuck, I'm out. Time to delete my 'gram account and cancel the monthly payments to all those hired gun bunnies.

In all seriousness, while we'd all like to think that everyone is introduced to firearms at age 5 by Grandpa, his single-shot Winchester 63, and a box of 22 Shorts, the fact of the matter is that most kids aren't getting that from their aging hippie Boomer grandparents, their GenX mom is who working three jobs, and her boyfriend who is nursing a pill addiction. So it may very well be that their first positive exposure to firearms is a short clip of some spandex-clad hottie punching steel with a PCC at Taran Butler's range, or Colion Noir running a drill with Future as the soundtrack.

I don't know about all that.

But I think we can all agree that spandex-clad hotties punching steel is a wonderful thing. I'm a big fan of the ones where they shoot a mag prone and the recoil makes their ass jiggle. It really makes me appreciate being American.

The other day I went to the range and there were a bunch of kids out there. By kids I mean 7-11 year olds (maybe 6-9). Regardless, I set up way down at the other end since I was blasting the 6.5 to figure THAT problem out. They were packing up; but I was very pleased to see kids shooting 22's. Myself, I indeed had a grandfather who had a BB gun in my hands at age 3. Granted, he was one of those can shoot anything, anytime, perfectly guys. A pure natural. By 5 I think I'd shot my first rifle and I know by 7 I was toting my shotgun to the duck blind.

But, you are correct in that most of these kids growing up only get positive exposure through "spandex clad hotties" and Colion Noir. That's better than nothing. Hell, come to speak of it....SCH's at the range would definitely be a positive experience though something tells me safety may be an issue. :)

I'd prefer to watch some old bearded guy who knows his stuff shooting a gun for a review, without any hype or stupid music playing, and letting me know how it works, performs and if it's a good buy.

I appreciate it when the gunbunny actually knows how shoot. Several on IG are just THOTs in skimpy clothes holding a gun trying to get men to subscribe to their OnlyFans page. Lame. But a few are ex-military and post videos of them shooting the fun stuff.

There are gun owners, 2Aers and then there are folks who simply profit off the 2A & gun owners community. People are very confused about who is who.

Nothing much will happen to BRCC. They have seen this unfold many times. The gun community has short memories and thinks a “boycott” is some sort of new sandwich.

The Trump-jesus people defended Trump on Bump-stocks. Now the ATF is using the same precedent to go after another product they have said was legal for years, pistol braces.

The Benchmade folks have a thread here on the Hide glorifying those backstabbers. Youtube gun channels push Simplysafe, another backstabber.

So rest assured ye ole stalwart fans of Black Rifle Coffee, they will be fine. For my part, fuck them. I may not have gone into service myself but members of my family have. I always consider my standing for 2A to be in my Fathers Brother’s name. Uncle Blondie 10th Mountain was killed by Nazi soldiers in retreat on the day Hilter committed suicide. He was fighting for many of the same freedoms that we are now fighting for on our own shores.

As for the Kyle case, anyone who does not see the obvious huge implications of his case is not paying attention. If his case is not ruled self defense we are all in big trouble.

Finally this whole “cancel culture” is a grossly overused term. Market based pressures are perfect valid in a capitalist society. Furthermore the idea that this is the same as someone simply saying something naughty, is ludicrous. If they were marketing to the gays ( the Spartans of political & cultural warfare) and pulled something like this on them, they would be consulting with a bankruptcy attorney by now.

Make no mistake. 2A is in wartime. We are in an active war of attrition that is about to heat up. Meanwhile 2A folks are panic-buying and making excuses for companies that take our hard earned money, then introduce us to anal. “Thank you sir, can I have another”..........
 
Kyle's case is more about resistance than self defense...... IMO
 
Still the best coffee out there. Ill continue to buy it because although maybe they didn’t go all in here, they do a lot for veterans and LE and that matters too.

Not everything is all or nothing. That’s the socialist method of cancel culture. They are just trying to not muddy the waters and given what is politically probably coming it’s smart on their part. I’d be willing to bet they are on the front lines when Beto starts the Biden gun policy bullshit.

Best coffee out there? Do you get out at all? We had their coffee by the case on my last deployment and most agreed folgers was better than their bitter ass coffee......
 
Has anyone actually had the opportunity to invite Kyle R. here to this humble abode?


For the time being he should go to cover.......if he says anything have it go through a lawyer.

The BRC shirt probably wasn't a very good idea.

I know 1A, but he I see in a Combat of a different kind right now tactics/messaging matter.

Doesn't let BRC off the hook for caving and their poor tactics of not just being quiet when challenged by the mob.

Who runs the business? High speed 2A commandos or Antifa?

Apparently Antifa.

And I don't buy coffee from Brown Shirts.
 
Even though I don't agree with the way they handled the Kyle incident, I could have given them a pass on that. What I can't get past is their political donations. I just don't see how you can portray and represent your company pro 2A and all other ways they do and then donate money to the very people who want to destroy the constitution. For the record I do buy their over priced coffee because of who I thought they were. They were the last company I thought we would be having this conversation about.

Hopefully not sending any more of your money to them..?
 
Dana Loesch and other so called big names in 2A are already running interference for them. This will pass rather quickly. $$$$

On a side note, they are blocking folks who voice their distain on social media. This includes fellow veterans that they supposedly revere. I can’t say I see the wisdom in that plan.

So he his explanation for one of his transgressions, is that he lost a bet and donated to Obama.

So if I enter into a bet in which if I lose I have to steal a car, I am absolved of all legal ramifications if I should lose, steal car and get caught??

Next he will lose a bet to spit on the tomb of the unknown soldier?......😳

Back when I just finished high school one of my homies was talking about some bet where the loser either had to lick the taint of the nastiest crackho on the block that they can call up, or put a lump of mac and cheese over it with her legs spread out, and eat it off of it right afterwards... I am like "Nah, fam... I am out... I don't even want to hear that shit"...

Pretty sure a bet that involves donating even a small amount of $$$ to an antigun pol would invoke the same reaction from me. Actually, I might prefer to lick crackwhore coochie over the former. Just gotta not swallow and rinse my mouth out with Georgi vodka afterward...

I am sure it is. i should have noted that. I added to emphasize just what and why the lines are being drawn so starkly these days. If this were a left leaning company and Kyle a leftist, they would not shy away from supporting him.
