A Florida gunmaker company is unapologetic after devising an advertisement for its products that declared “NOT TODAY ANTIFA.”

Spike’s Tactical company shared the advertisement, which bore the anti-Antifa statement and featured four armed men facing off behind a barrier against a crowd of unruly protesters, on its Facebook page Sunday.

Spike’s Tactical produced the ad, which caused controversy on social media, in conjunction with a Texas-based clothing company, Pipe Hitters Union.

Right. I assume that was intentional, which is why I laughed.

If it was not intentional, then it is still funny, since the right hates that phrase.

Either way its funny to me.

I have no doubt it was intentional. They use that phrase as an excuse to lie about whatever they want, so what's good enough for the goose is good enough for the gander.


It's a perfect tactic.

The antifa guys on there don't look squirrely enough- my only complaint.

Quotes from the article:

quote:

Spike’s Tactical and Pipe Hitters Union, in a joint statement to Vice News, said, “We are not advocating violence. If you pay attention to the ad, you see two groups of people. No matter what type of description you give to the two groups, there is clearly one group of unlawful attackers and there is another group of lawful defenders.”


quote:

We offer zero apologies to anyone that is offended by this advertisement that depicts armed, but peaceful, patriotic Americans standing up against socialist, anarchist, and communist rioters,” the statement added. “We apologize to no one. If we were to make an apology, that would suggest that we have done something wrong or regret our actions, which is not the case.
