Thats strange, just the other day they were selling groupons for heartland range time

Well that sucks. I shot at H&H last year with a friend on a Groupon deal. Good way to get new shooters and women out to the range.

Did they make an announcement, or did you just see them go away?

Austin area Concealed carry instructor had his ad pulled and was told it was due to Groupon Policy change. NRA also tweeted that Groupon was pulling the ads

 

[RangeMasterFrank]

Yea, I heard they pulled our ads.

Screw Groupon. That company was already on the ropes and I'm sure this won't help them at all.

This is the note I sent to them through their "Contact Us" portal:

It was recently brought to my attention that Groupon does not support the 2nd Amendment by pulling coupons and ads for pro-2nd Amendment businesses. I have a small business and was actually considering doing a Groupon. This will not be happening now and I will be using different social networking channels to let thousands of people know how Groupon does not support or recognize pro-2nd Amendment companies. I know Groupon is not in the best financial situation and had one of the worst IPO starts in the history of the stock exchange. This decision to not support law abiding citizens or businesses will only hurt Groupon's future and not help it. Good luck!

I cancelled my Groupon account too. nthequiet:

There was a Heartland Groupon in the past week. I wonder if they've been contacted by Groupon.

Is anyone surprised that a social media company founded by a 20-something from Chicago would not be pro RKBA?

I received a response to my letter I sent them but I haven't had a chance to read it yet. I'll read it when I get home tonight at midnight.
