What's In Your Wallet?

Timothy Birdnow

So Mastercard and Visa are now going to start tracking customers firearms purchases and ammunition purchases by assigning a special code to the arms industry.

And you know damned good and well what they are going to do with this data.

It is illegal to keep a federal firearms registration list (the 1986 Firearms Owner Protection Act), but if the industry does it for the government...

FOPA states:

No such rule or regulation prescribed [by the Attorney General] after the date of the enactment of the Firearms Owners Protection Act may require that records required to be maintained under this chapter or any portion of the contents of such records, be recorded at or transferred to a facility owned, managed, or controlled by the United States or any State or any political subdivision thereof, nor that any system of registration of firearms, firearms owners, or firearms transactions or disposition be established. Nothing in this section expands or restricts the Secretary's authority to inquire into the disposition of any firearm in the course of a criminal investigation.

In the current Fascist system there is always a way around any law the government finds inconvenient. Just make business do it for you and then you are off the hook.

So the credit card companies are going to do the dirty work that bureaucrats Just Won't Do and keep a registry for government use despite the law preventing such a registry. Cute trick.

What I propose is that we start a firearms financing business whereby a gun purchaser can pay a third party who then pays the arms dealer. Make the credit card payable  to the the Smelly Old Shoe Company, or the United Church of Fragrant Cheeses or some such. In fact, such a business could be used to hide many such purchases. I don't think it would be illegal. It would just be a legal way to keep your privacy in tact. Pornographers have done things like this for years, I am given to understand.

The IRS won't like it at all but they would have a hard time justifying any action taken. Whoever ran such an enterprise would have to make sure they dotted every i and crossed every t to comply with the tax code.

One thing is certain; this is a dangerous trend and it won't stop with firearms. Soon everything you buy will be recorded and known by the government and by advertisers and by anyone who cares to learn a little something about you.

1 How about paying for guns with checks? Or better yet, cash?

2 That would be fine, but many people may not have the cash on hand. A lot of people don't use it. And checks can easily be tracked.

I think keeping the bank out of the loop is the most important thing now. Cash or what I suggested. But we shouldn't leave a paper trail for the government; they're coming for those guns any way you look at it. It's key to what they are planning.
