    Heard of Operation "Choke Point" Yet, Well You Will Be!

    This requires your full attention span, it is a complex bit of soviet style economic black listing, courtesy of your democratic party, and all of its creatures....

    We have been aware of this story for some time. NRA News, for example, originally reported on it last January. Breitbart news also noted in January that Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), Chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Chairman of the Economic Growth Subcommittee, sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder demanding further information on the program. In a follow up story on NRA News in April, Andrew Langer from the Institute for Liberty reiterated the allegations and reported that the program is expanding. The House Committee on Financial Services additionally held a hearing on April 8 entitled, "Who's in Your Wallet: Examining How Washington Red Tape Impairs Economic Freedom," at which concerns over Operation Choke Point were expressed by both sides of the aisle.

    In addition to these concerns, NRA is aware of episodes in which banks have severed their relationships with customers in the firearm industry, as well as the policies of various online services – such as Google Shopping, eBay, Craigslist, and PayPal--to refuse to host listings for, or process sales of, firearms or ammunition.

    McMillan had their Bank of America account(s) closed some time ago due to being in the firearms industry. I wonder if they were a target of this operation?

    See you soon, AC.

    The NRA should simply get into Banking. Can you imagine that?

    I don't believe all bankers will heed the goobermint's edict to deny service to companies in the firearms industry. A lot of bankers would like to have the industry's money flowing through them.
