PayPal and GoFundMe have banned the militia that made headlines for livestreaming their detention of 300 migrants at the southern border. The militia, the United Constitutional Patriots (UCP), claims to be comprised of many former law enforcement and military members.
In a statement to BuzzFeed, PayPal claimed that the group violated their “Acceptable Use Policy.”
“The account associated with United Constitutional Patriots has been closed due to a violation of our Acceptable Use Policy,” the spokesperson told BuzzFeed News. “We do not allow PayPal services to be used to promote hate, violence, or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory.”
GoFundMe has not yet released a statement about the ban.
Mark Cheney, who identified himself to BuzzFeed as the “commander” of the militia, said that the bans have “killed” their efforts.
“They killed us,” Cheney said. “I have to find some other way for people to donate.”
The militia had detained the migrants and then handed them over to Border Patrol. They group, which formed six years ago, have been patrolling the border since November, in hopes that their presence would discourage illegal border crossings.
According to some experts, citizens arrests can only be carried out in the case of a felony — and border crossing is a misdemeanor. Javier Guerra, police chief for the city of Sunland Park, has since told the group that carrying out the citizens arrests is a crime.
Cheney contends that their border patrolling is perfectly legal, and even a “duty.” He also said that members of the militia are in touch with Border Patrol officers on an hourly basis.
“They’re happy we’re here,” he said about Border Patrol. “We have a direct line to the local outpost.”
So Americans protecting our own border is now immoral and illegal in the eyes of the enemy left.
Time to pull the plug on PayPal.
Lawsuit time? Assisting with the enforcement of law isn’t “hate”.
Translation: We hate conservatives...
Protecting women and children are acts of intolerance for these Marxist dupes.
Its quite obvious enemies to America will do everything possible to impede the militia.
All the more reasons to just pack up the gear into the RV and head south, start grouping up.
Beware that they fibs will try their best to bring you down.
Trump really needs to authorize a militia.
But by closing their accounts isn’t PayPal and GoFundMe showing hate for the account holders? Who is promoting hate and who is acting lawfully?
I think since we are still the majority in this country we should start using the power of the purse and show these corporations and businesses how we feel about them.

PROGRESSIVE’S EIGHT COMMANDMENTS (they actually believe in “something”)
Defending the citizens of the republic is now fascism.
If you don’t let illegal immigrants invade your country - you’re a fascist.
If you don’t submit to communism you’re a fascist.
If you don’t turn over your guns to prove you won’t be violent - you’re a fascist.
If you actually use the banks and commerce to silence opposing viewpoints to communism you’re stopping bullying.
If you use threats of violence (Maxine, Obama, antifa, Hillary, Pelosi) and actually shoot republicans, you’re a hero.
If you use social media to silence conservatives, you’re aiding the cause.
If you villify Pres Trump and his followers in Hollywood, you get an award.
Can They create a 501c3 or similar, open a Online only Bank Account or a Prepaid Debit Card (Netspend type) ?
I know most all the banks are commieleftistscumbags and would refuse or close an account.
There needs to be a legislative ban on commercial businesses refusing, for political reasons, to deal with persons acting legally. Congress can act under its power over interstate commerce.
So they've banned antifa?
We must go after these horrible companies that attack and hurt people who are only seeking to be free.

The land of Freedom ? No socialist, federal reserve slaves control things. Time for another Boston tea party ?
Good luck with Congress acting. They put us in this mess.
Protecting your life, home,and constitutional rights is “Hate”?
