Of course you knew PayPal won't handle transactions for "certain firearms, firearm parts or accessories, ammunition, weapons or knives", right?

You probably knew Google has issues with guns too.

Here is a story I don't think I have told here before:

Years ago, when I first created Modern Ballistics, I tried to get a merchant account for processing credit cards. I had one a few years earlier when was selling software to software developers instead of gun owners and I figured it wouldn't be a problem. I sent in my application and to my surprise they turned me down. At first they wouldn't tell me why. But after much calling and pestering them they finally told me it was because of my product. I carefully read through all their fine print and couldn't find where there was anything wrong with my product according to their published rules. I told them I didn't understand, what is wrong with my product? The most I could get out of them was that I could submit my application again if I wanted but it probably wouldn't make any difference.

Now via Sebastian and NSSF I find out:

Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp. are refusing to process any credit card transactions between federally licensed firearms retailers, distributors and manufacturers -- a move which will severely limit available inventory of firearms and ammunition to military, law enforcement and law-abiding Americans.

The first company to be affected by this decision appears to be firearms distributor CDNN Sports Inc.

"We were contacted recently by First Data/Citi Merchant Services by a June Rivera-Mantilla stating that we were terminated and funds were being seized for selling firearms in a non-face-to-face transaction," said Charlie Crawford, president of CDNN Sports Inc. "Although perfectly legal, we were also informed that no transactions would be processed in the future, even for non-firearms. I find this very frightening."

To voice your concern to Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp., please contact June Rivera-Mantilla at 631-683-7734 or her supervisor Robert Tenenbaum at 631-683-6570.

Read the letter, they claim a violation of the law but yet apparently don't bother to turn them into law enforcement. Just like some experiences I have had (above and with PNNL) if they want to get rid of you they will just make stuff up that is at best half true. They don't need or want to know the truth, they just want to get rid of you. It's very tough to win against people like that. Just like literacy tests for voting, when tested none of the blacks could read the daily newspaper, hence they failed the state approved test. Never mind the newspaper given to them was printed in Chinese. Technically they can get away with it but it's still not right.

If they were refusing to do business with people with a certain skin color, sexual orientation, or religion this would be on the front page of all the newspapers. But it isn't. And its because we are just "gun-ni**ers" and it is socially acceptable to the elites to treat us like this.
