When a business refusing to deal with people that are perverted homosexuals. That business is attacked by the federal gov on the grounds of discrimination. So what is the difference here?
I have intensely disliked BOA for almost 50 years, and never miss an opportunity to bad mouth them.
It would serve BOA well if by withdrawing their business, pro-2A folks caused the bank to go bust!
We desperately need a list of pro-2A banks!
I clicked my way over here to post this link.

We want to let you know that we hear your comments and questions regarding one of our customers. While we cannot discuss the details of any individual client we work with, we can assure you the allegations being made here are completely false. Bank of America does not have a policy that prohibits us from banking clients in this industry. In fact, we have numerous, longstanding customers in the industry.
We are also extremely proud of our support of the US military and reject any assertion to the contrary. We count as clients many companies that provide for our nation's defense. We employ thousands of veterans, Guardsmen, and Reservists, and plan to increase our hiring this year.

In response to Bank of America's public statement:
The statement we [McMillan] posted was an accurate account of the events that transpired late last week. McMillan Group has been in good standing with B of A and a loyal customer for the past 12 years. We were told that we must finalize all of our accounts because we manufacture firearms.
McMillan cannot speak for Bank of America's company wide policies, but we can speak out about our personal experiences.
We [McMillan] kindly suggest that if Corporate Bank of America has no policy against conducting business with firearms manufactures, then they should communicate these policies with their regional Vice Presidents and other management.
It is kind of silly for them to be that way. They sit in the Pentagon and outside nearly every military base soaking up cash.
