A second bank has joined the corporate boycott of Americans’ gun rights, and will surely be boycotted by customers in return.
Bank of America vice chair Anne Finucane announced Tuesday that the bank will stop lending money to companies that manufacture “military-style” rifles that are available for civilians to purchase. Bank of America is a lender to Vista Outdoor, Remington, and Ruger.
“These are clients we have enjoyed a relationship with,” Finucane told Bloomberg TV. “There are those I think will reduce their portfolios and we’ll work with them and others that will choose to do something else.”
According to Finucane, Bank of America has been “exploring ways it could contribute to stemming gun violence” since Parkland. She also hinted that Bank of America could stop doing business with retailers that sell so-called assault weapons in the future. “That’s a good public dialogue, but that’s a ways off,” she said.
This is absurd – and it’s far from Bank of America’s first offense. Back in 2007, the bank began offering credit cards to customers without Social Security numbers, who are typically illegal immigrants. Clearly, Bank of America is more concerned about helping illegals than they are upholding the constitutional rights of American citizens. Their name couldn’t be more ironic.
Unsurprisingly, many Americans are calling for customers of Bank of America to boycott.
Bank of America follows in the un-American steps of Citigroup, who announced last month that they will no longer work with firms that sell guns to customers who have not passed a background check, or who are younger than 21.

Bet some of their tellers would rather be armed with a gun than a button that buzzes. I would.
Bank of America will be cutting ties with gun manufactures because guns kill people? Let's see if Bank of America will cut ties with planned parenthood because they kill babies. hypocritical jerks.
They seem to have no trouble with Remington, and Ruger. Go to a military base guess what companies make our weapons? One of my duties is procuring them. #boycottbankofamerica
Broke Of America is more like it, they suck. I have boycotted those thieves for many years already after they screwed me, or attempted to, I should say.
Is the bank of America still controlled by the Bank of Italy ?
I think they are Harold. Kind of telling.
These idiots don't know the difference between an AR-15 and a Paint-Ball gun.
ANOTHER ANTI-AMERICAN BANK!! CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNTS WITH THEM!!!!
Doesn't this constitute a 'combination is restraint of trade'? Shouldn't the only allowed criteria for a bank lone be that ability to pay it back, if the business is legal? Political leanings shouldn't affect this process.
You are looking at a soon to be EX customer of Bank of America.
Every American Gun Owner should close their accounts tomorrow. This is the bank from hell.
