B of A Snubs Two Gun Makers as Banking Becomes Politicized

Leave it to BofA to take a leadership role on a slippery slope: removing sin from banking. Sure, that will work! Maybe BofA should spend more of its time looking at its own practices, starting with the money it donates to politicians via its PAC programs. What could be worse than paying law makers to vote your way? If the answer is it legal to do so, then the same answer should have applied to the rifle manufacturer it recently chastised for being politically incorrect.

I was not aware of B of A's actions, Thank you. BofA's VISA just went into the shredder and my checking accounts will be closed by end of day. B of A will not miss me, and I sure as hell will not miss them.
Wells Fargo here I come.

Speaking of that incident that started all of this:

An Open Letter to FAU Faculty, Staff and Administration about Sandy Hook



Excerpts:




I argue a three-man team entered the school. One was arrested in the school, cuffed and put on the lawn. Two went out a back door; one of them was arrested and the other apparently escaped.

Those arrested currently are not in police custody; their names were never released. That is a telling sign that we are being sold a story based on fiction rather than on fact.

The absence of any terrorist threat and the existence of more than 300 FEMA camps and special boxcars to carry dissidents to them have been deliberately withheld from the public.

Since Homeland Security has no foreign commitments, those camps and ammunition have to be for domestic consumption. Homeland Security appears to be gearing up to conduct a civil war with the American people -- but 80 million armed families stand in its way.

'Sandy Hook massacre: Official story spins out of control'

"This logically tells us that the real perpetrators are being protected with cover stories of what really happened because if the truth were known, some section of the U.S. government would be implicated."

"...and the media focusing the emotional outcry onto the hot-button topic of gun control...I'm left wondering if this was actually the work of some highly trained professional hit team?"

'Was the massacre at Sandy Hook elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, a psy-op, using what amounts to a 'death squad' and a carefully planned mission to terrorise people on behalf of the government, in combination with perception management to shape the narrative and vector the emotional fallout?"

The John Moore show said that one child had 11 bullet wounds and that #4 buckshot could do that with one shot from a shotgun. Have you heard any media reports of a shot gun at the scene?

In neither the article nor the comments do I see anything having to do with the legal requirements the bank must follow under the rules of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). It's just possible that the bank was either suspicious of or knew that its customer was doing business with companies, individuals or countries that are on the OFAC list(s) and was simply doing what the law requires of the bank...including not publishing any information about their suspicions or actions.

This is not an gun issue. This is a bloated bank bureaucracy problem whereby a computer algorithm senses an anomaly and the program responded to it. The problem lies in the inadequacy of humans to react in a timely fashion to the situation. In the big picture, for a bank the size of BoA to recognize there is a problem with a customer who's deposits are the size of a speck of a gnat is not surprising. You could probably find business owners all over in any industry who are today pulling their hair out because it is impossible to get what you need out of these huge organizations. Why is American Banker fanning the flames rather than investigating the real issue - banking procedures.
