Few things warm my heart more than watching the air coming out of gun control advocates\u2019 celebratory balloons. I can\u2019t say the recent news is a win for the Second Amendment, but it certainly isn\u2019t a loss. Credit card companies have \u201cpaused\u201d the implementation of their plans for a new merchant category code (MCC) that would essentially create a backdoor tracking registry of people purchasing firearms<\/a>, ammunition<\/a>, and related items<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The new MCC was not going to track specific items; it sought to create a log of people making purchases at gun stores and reporting the transactions to the feds as \u201csuspicious\u201d activities. Thankfully, due to public and political pressure, the politicized financial institutions behind the scheme have backed off implementation. However, the mere attempt at backdoor gun control demonstrates just how far the anti-gunners will go to trample our Second Amendment rights.<\/p>\n
