A dangerous trend


Recommended Posts

 Now for all of you who didn't think this Admin. wasn't making a concentrated effort to eliminate your Second Amendment rights , this should be another clue ( if true ) to the behind the scenes activity .

 And you thought the Admin. wouldn't purchase vast amounts of ammo to keep it out of your hands. <dontknow>

I'm completely surprised that this is just hitting the news TODAY.

 

B of A has been doing this for years.  The screwed McMillan, then screwed American Spirit Arms.  B of A took what Holder said seriously - and it was pitched in 2011.

Ya, I remember that ,but looks like they are expanding or pushing harder . This is probably why they took over a lot of Banks with bail outs . When they did that , we lost a lot of small banks around here & were replaced ( bought out /pushed out ) with the bailed out big name ones .

There are dangerous trends everywhere.

 

FEC chair warns that conservative media like Drudge Report and Sean Hannity face regulation --- like PACs - Washington Examiner - May 7, 2014
http://washingtonexaminer.com/fec-chair-warns-conservative-media-drudge-hannity-face-regulation-like-pacs/article/2548163

"Government officials, reacting to the growing voice of conservative news outlets, especially on the internet, are angling to curtail the media's exemption from federal election laws governing political organizations, a potentially chilling intervention that the chairman of the Federal Election Commission (FEC) is vowing to fight."

First they tried that "fairness doctrine", which was implemented voluntarily, and tons of liberals got talk shows/talk radio programs.

 

Fail. Nobody wanted to sponsor them, nobody wanted to listen.

 

So now they want to implement the original plan of forced silence.

There would be a major backlash if the news announcer said, "And now, to give the Liberals equal time, please pay attention to this."

 

Everyone knows you can get all the Liberal crap you can stomach via ABC, NBC and CBS. Or CNN but they could be bankrupt soon.

 

Edit: I should have mentioned Al Jazeera news. That's some dangerous left-wing subversive schit there.

Yeah, that schit didn't work so well at the Bundy ranch, either, inside that "1st Amendment Zone."

 

They can't whip the 2nd Amendment, and they're starting to realize that.

 

Next stop, please - try to shut down some 1st Amendment activities. 

 

They'll FAIL at that one, too.  Pretty bad.

Here's more of a dangerous trend...

 

Y'all probably remember the EPA raid on a gold mine in Alaska that triggered federal probe.

 

You may also remember when EPA agents raided an ammunition company on alleged ‘environmental violations’.

 

Well, there's new news. The office of the Inspector General says the EPA is being actively uncooperative and dismissive of investigations. The EPA is even said to exist in 'a shadowy world'

 

Let's not forget that the EPA shut down the only lead smelter in the US. On environmental grounds, we suppose? Likely the result will be that the US has to import ammunition to make up the slack -- putting Obama and the Executive branch in charge of ammo imports to the US.

 

Like the Bureau of Land Management, the Environmental Protection Agency is a rogue bureaucracy. The problem we have is that the President "doesn't know anything until he sees it on television" about what all the many agencies do.

Speaking of the EPA - they apparently have a department called "The Office of Homeland Security."  That's being questioned right now.

 

The EPA is NOT a Law Enforcement Agency - yet, they think they are.  This kind of sheit needs to stop.  There are to many "Agencies" out there that think they can storm houses, arrest people, etc - and those MF'ers are not Law Enforcement Agencies.  At all.  Some of these entities that come to mind are:

 

**USPS, and their Postal Inspectors - not LEO. 

**IRS - fine me, bitches.  You don't need LE capacity, nor do you have it, by law.

**Department of Education - seriously?!!?  Get the fuk out.

**FDA - Food & Drug Administration.  Again.  SERIOUSLY?!!?  You DO NOT NEED COPS IN YOUR FORCE.

**EPA - obviously.  Fine me, bastards if I've done something wrong, but you fukks can't arrest me. 

**BLM. Here we go - the BLM is not a LEA, but they do have LEOs.  I don't like what the BLM has done lately, but I've also been on the side of BLM LEOs before - long story. 

**USFS - yes, the US Forest Service - they have a LEO branch.  Sometimes, it's really needed.  I can explain that later.

**NPS - National Park Service - they have a LEO branch.  Sometimes, they are needed, and I can explain that later, as well.

 

There's so many more, it's not even funny. 

 

Now, lately, there are too many "agencies" that have a LEO branch and don't need one/are justified for one, and they've developed their own SWAT teams or Tactical Teams internal to those LEO compartments.  That needs to go.

 

Bottom line - if you're a Federal Agency, and you're NOT the US Marshals Service, the FBI, or part of the Air Marshal program, then you don't need your own SWAT team.  Period.  If you need something from an individual, then you request assistance in finding that individual from a LE entity that has jurisdiction over that person, and you get their help in apprehending that person.  What REALLY comes to mind is the County Sheriff.

Targeted? Gun sellers say ‘high risk’ label from feds cuts off banking options, restricts business - Washington Times -  May 18, 2014

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/may/18/targeted-gun-sellers-say-high-risk-label-from-feds/

[excerpted]

Gun retailers say the Obama administration is trying to put them out of business with regulations and investigations that bypass Congress and choke off their lines of credit, freeze their assets and prohibit online sales.

...thousands of small gun-shop owners across the country were in the same situation. Banks were either dropping them, freezing their accounts or refusing to process their online sales, so he opened a credit card processing company for the gun industry called McMillan Merchant Solutions.

Congressional Republicans say the Obama administration is using its regulatory powers to shutter industries it doesn’t like. Last year, 31 Republicans accused the Justice Department and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. of intimidating banks and payment processors to “terminate business relationships with lawful lenders.”

“We are one of the most heavily regulated industries in America,” said Mr. Sirochman of American Spirit Arms. “We have to ship our guns to another federal licensed dealers for pickup. The people that are picking up the rifles have to go through a background check to make sure they don’t have any felonies. You can’t own a gun or pass the background check if you do.

“All this is, is an assault on our Second Amendment rights.”

Rand Paul introduces an amendment to prevent the DOJ from using Operation Choke Point to punish gun dealers - America's Watch Tower - June 20, 2014
http://americaswatchtower.com/2014/06/20/rand-paul-introduces-an-amendment-to-prevent-the-doj-from-using-operation-choke-point-to-punish-gun-dealers/

[excerpt]

Operation Choke Point is an initiative started by the Department on Injustice back in 2013 with the stated goal of protecting consumers from fraud by scrutinizing banks which deal heavily with “high risk” businesses.

Of course the Federal government is tasked with identifying these “high risk” businesses so when the Congress failed to pass Barack Obama’s gun control legislation the regime decided to add gun manufacturers and dealers to the list of “high risk” businesses in an apparent attempt to choke off the sale of guns.
