Groupon spokesman Julie Mossler told Fox News their decision was based on “performance and customer feedback.”

“It’s clear they’re not a fit right now,” she said.

The Chicago company declined to comment further and did not mention the Newtown shootings in its reasoning.

The decision has prompted outrage among gun store owners and gun enthusiasts – many of whom are calling for a Groupon boycott.

Some companies just don't have enough sense to keep their heads low and stay out of politics.

Groupon is in such bad shape that they cannot afford to turn away any dollar, even if it is for firearms and related goodies.

But good for them, I thought I knew where they stood and this just proves it! Thanks for sticking your neck out there groupon.

I have some groupons left, after using them I am closing my account, and I will call them and tell them why.
Same with Bank of America...i am closing my credit card, and I will call and tell them why.
If they want the typical Obama voter's business (the kind of person who pays no taxes), they are welcome to it!

Contact businesses that use groupon as well and let them know you won't do business with them either. Put the pressure on these folks.

I contacted them and asked them to cancel my account (seems to be the only way) and stated their pulling of gun deals as the reason. I got an automated e-mail stating that they usually respond within 24 hours but were backed up right now so it could be longer.
