20/20 hindsight is kicking in big-time over the name of this weed brand.

is learning a hard lesson about the rules of engagement when it comes to selling weed, and rule #1 seems to be ... don't name your company after a chemical weapon.

The rapper/entrepreneur's company -- Napalm Cannabis -- has been dragged online because its name is a sore reminder of a chemical agent that was used in firebombs during the Vietnam War ... firebombs that killed and maimed innocent citizens, including the little girl whose photo became a symbol of the horror of the United States' involvement in the war.Napalm was also used against Japan in WWII. Its use on civilians was banned internationally in 1980 by the U.N.

Customers were deeply offended by the name, not to mention one product in particular -- a pre-rolled joint known as"The Grenade." Seems people didn't like the cavalier reference to deadly weapons of war.

So easily offended

racist, caused so much damage in the 60's-70's. Not thinking.

Or dem white folks dont want another black business expanded in massive locations.

Maybe dats why it’s banned

'Napalm' is racist. Trees are racist. Will the wokemob provide us a list of approved words, please? I want to break my back bending over backwards not to offend anyone.

I'd smoke that shit. Comes in a grenade jar. You even get to pull the pin....

Just like DJT on T

Just change the name those names suck ass anyway... like who came up with these. I wouldn't buy shit named this stupid anyway.

The U.S. is full of pussy’s. Everyone soft like baby shit 🤣

After reading why....😒

CALL OF DUTY BE DROPPING NAPALMS ALL DAY NOBODY IS SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT THAT ..☄️☄️☠️

This is absolutely retarded

Napalm wasn’t a “bomb” used against people. It was used to clear trees and jungle. So many stupid people in this world. Not sure who is more stupid - the people reporting this junk, or the people who believe it.
