Weeks ago it was revealed the Department of Justice was working with the FDIC to provide new monetary regulations that would halt the sale of guns by licensed gun dealers.
Though Obama maintains that he only wants to enforce reasonable, common sense gun control, when you peak behind the curtain its easy to see this is just a magic trick hes using to distract Americans from whats really happening.
So how is Obama going to finally starve Americans of access to firearms? Its called Operation Chokepoint.
Operation Chokepoint is a devious means of shutting down gun stores by blocking them from obtaining credit and even basic banking services.
Operation Chokepoint works directly with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and lumps gun sellers into the same category as high risk businesses like pornographers, head shops, and pyramid schemes to prevent lending institutions from providing them with open lines of credit to fund their businesses.

It’s simple,an armed population is a free population. The only way to implement their totalitarian society is to remove from the populace the option of armed resistance. The marxist learn from history too, they know it was armed colonists who drove out the King’s troops and officials and founded a new republic. In 1917 a disarmed population was ripe for the taking by just a few “minority men” ie bolsheviks !
You can bet the audits would come fast and furious.
How you doin’? Still breakin’ the sound barrier on the border looking for “trespassers”?
Yes, they did. But you still could get them. My dad had ordered a WWII mauser through the mail and it was delivered to our home, a couple, three years before that.
He was hoping for a real German K98K like he’d seen during the war - he got a Yugo Mauser and he sent it back.
Years later, I got one from a buddy that was a cherry battlefield pickup bring back that was made in the Mauser Oberndorf factory in 1935. Full laminated stock, all parts with matching S/Ns and no Nazi markings. Truly a choice rifle. I bought it in his memory.
Nice. I remember the ads in the back of magazines for mail order WWII rifles delivered via the US Mail. Those were the good old days. :>}
Any time a firearms-related thread is created on FreeRepublic, please be sure to add the "banglist" keyword to it so that interested FReepers don't miss it. Just a suggestion.
Let Freedom Ring,
“Still breakin the sound barrier on the border looking for trespassers?”
Indeed, burned up couple thousand kilos of your tax money this week training your boys (and one gal).
Moving on to re-certify British Navy pilots in 3 weeks.
Seems like Walmart might lobby against this rule. They are a “gun dealer”.
“wonder if this would make Texas the new banking capital of North America....”
I think Texas requires state banks to be FDIC insured. That could easily change, though.
If this bastard isn’t impeached after the mid-terms its over for America.
I am not just using rhetoric here, I mean it. The only question for our future will be what kind of political entity will replace it - and how many.
He’s killing us.
I am sure the head clown will issue and EO exempting or postponing the rule’s effects on its special interest groups like pornos and head shops. Those are just distractions from the real intent - the 2nd Amendment.
Well, at least I kinda feel like my tax dollars are being well spent in that case. LOL! Clear skies and watch your 6. :>}
If you would be so kind please send me an email when you write as I may miss it when posted.
I was thinking that one way around this would be to have gun clubs set themselves up as buyers to obtain weapons directly from manufacturers for resale (at a discount) to their members.
Then I remembered that the law requires interstate transfers he made through federally licensed gun dealers, right? Not sure a club could attain such a license. So the way all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle fit together really falls into place: interstate transfers (and within some states all sales) require a gun dealer. So drive all the gun dealers out of business by denying them credit access.
If he was impeached and removed from office, race riots would break out and we would have President Biden to quell the flames. We as a country made our bed and we are going to have to sleep in it for two more years. Win back the Senate and we can at least neuter this autocrat.
will read later to day...
I would think that there is a lawsuit in the works to prevent the FDIC from applying this new regulation to legitimate firearms manufacturers and dealers.
Simply ask to be on my ping list!
