The Enemies of American Liberty Never Stop

CBS News:

Credit card industry representatives have cleared the way for a new means of tracking firearm and ammunition purchases, a move that supporters say will help flag suspicious sales and reduce gun crime.

The International Standards Organization, which sets rules across the financial services industry, agreed to create a new merchant category code for gun and ammunition retailers at a meeting this week, and announced the decision Friday. The decision came amid mounting pressure on credit card companies by Democrats in Congress who urged the code’s creation.

Merchant category codes are made up of four digits and are used across all sorts of industries as a means to classify retailers, while not revealing individual product purchases. Credit card companies currently lump firearm retailers in with other outlets, classifying them as either “5999: Miscellaneous retail stores” or “5941: Sporting Goods Stores.”

With a new code for firearms merchants, potentially suspicious purchasing patterns could be flagged to law enforcement — much the same way banks and credit unions made more than 1.4 million suspicious activity reports in 2021 for other types of transactions that might suggest anything from identity theft to terrorist financing. …

Mastercard, American Express and Visa initially resisted the creation of a merchant category code for gun and ammunition retailers according to an investigation by CBS News in June.

Leftist members of Congress have funding to hire lots of staff, and they are obviously good at putting very smart, intensely ideologically-engagée activists on the payroll who leave no stone unturned in the effort to disarm then socialize and control all of us.

And when our country is finally taken over and becomes a dictatorship people will say “I never saw it coming”.

The Democrats massively stole the 2020 election. Many Republicans didn’t really care because “Trump”!! There should have been a massive outcry and demand for full audits. But the Rino’s were happy to be rid of Trump. When the J6 protestors were being rounded up and thrown in Gulags. The Rino’s didn’t care because of their TDS. Now, it looks like the FBI is going to try to bring Trump to a trial in a DC court. We know how that will turn out with DC judges and DC juries. If they get away with this their will be fighting in the streets and the puppet masters of the vegetable in the WH will declare martial law. Of course good people have been turned off by the terrible treatment of the J6 protestors so maybe we will just all roll over and grab our ankles…

No one knows or cares about the j6 unfortunates mouldering in DC’s jail cells.
Their plight is not on the news,so they do not exist.
Our country was taken over decades ago by communists,slowly,simply,and easily.

Now eat the f*cking bugs.
