Kings apologize for selling Turkish-made scarves on Armenian Night

[LuckyDay]

Wer redet heute noch von der Vernichtung der Armenier?

No one should be laughing about the Armenian genocide. You can look up the 100,000 children in the desert. I won't post the picture here.

I'm surprised they even got a Turkish company to do this and it wasn't even sabotaged. It's the colors of the Armenian flag and there was even another dust up between Azerbaijan over the oil region and Russia and Turkey once again got involved. Someone at the company would have noticed.

Like what are we going to do here ? Tell this Turkish company that the Kings have a deal with "Sorry we're going back on our deal because of an atrocity your government committed about 100 years ago that you had no part in"

I mean, yes?

Why is this so difficult?

Do a different product or promotional item for that night, "promotional scarves made in Turkey" aren't some precious one of a kind item that's irreplaceable on the docket

And if your whole argument is about "but we have a CONTRACT" then fine fulfill the contract and just don't give them out.

There's a number of ways this could have been handled/solved that don't require your full-throated defense of a bad decision using a bunch of terrible analogues.

Nope, they’re wrong. Those are the nicest scarves made, everyone knows it, and look- it’d be great if they could get along, wouldn’t it be, folks? And rejecting their scarves isn’t a great start. So I think apologies are in order, from the very nasty media. Thank you.

I guess we know what job Luc's son got in the organization after the music career flopped.

I love seeing ethnic grievances imported in this fashion. Really warms my heart.

So close to ordering the correct scarves…. “We were right there… “
