In the wake of recent mass shootings in Las Vegas, Florida and elsewhere disturbing news reports have emerged that some banks and credit card companies are exploring ways to enact gun control from the private sector by developing ways to flag, and possibly restrict, gun purchases. By “coding” purchases made, as these companies already do for restaurants and department stores, the credit card companies would be able to see when and where a customer purchased a firearm. This is a slippery slope to discrimination and violates people’s Second Amendment rights as well as their privacy.

Some people will never like the idea of owning a firearm. That’s fine. It’s not for everyone. Everyone has their interests and passions, and they should be free to pursue them so long as they don’t include intentionally harming other people or, perhaps, themselves.

The Left - Losing Their Minds and Declining into Violent Response :: 06/30/2018

U.S.A.-(Ammoland.com)- At a recent Friends of the NRA banquet, one of the anti-gun protestors in a white pick-up tried to run over an elderly couple walking up to the event in. Last year anti-gun protestors threatened to burn the Reagan Library to the ground with 200 pro-2A guests inside. These aren’t Antifa activists. These are housewives from Thousand Oaks, a bedroom community just north of Los Angeles.
In the past, these events were just shrugged off as the rantings of some whack-a-doodle leftie. Now we have the leaders of the Democrat party calling for violence.

Pelosi Hammered For Anti-Gun Comment Following Newspaper Shooting :: 06/29/2018

Anti-gunners are notorious for holding to the adage, “Never let a good crisis go to waste.” In the wake of a mass shooting, for example, they jump on the opportunity to beat the gun control drum almost immediately.

The art of misdirection: The Left is manipulating the narrative on gun-control :: 06/29/2018
