Fox News: DOJ accused of targeting gun industry with 'Choke Point' programhttp://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...b-with-choke-point-program/?intcmp=latestnewshttp://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...b-with-choke-point-program/?intcmp=latestnews

The Obama administration, after failing to get gun control passed on Capitol Hill, has resorted to using its executive power to try to put some in the firearms industry out of business, House Republican investigators say.

The assertion is included in a report recently released by California GOP Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

Citing internal Justice Department documents, the committee concluded that the administration used a program known as Operation Choke Point to target legal companies that it finds “objectionable.”

The program was started in 2013 to protect consumers by “choking” alleged fraudsters’ access to the banking system. The Justice Department essentially forces banks and third-party payment processors to stop accepting payments from companies that are considered “high risk” and are supposedly violating federal law.

However, the documents released by Issa’s committee show the federal government lumped the firearms industry in with other "high-risk" businesses including those dealing with pornography, drug paraphernalia, escort services, racist materials, Ponzi schemes and online gambling.

He couldn't get Congress to act on his Second Amendment-violating "gun control" plan -- including his own party members -- so he grabbed his pen and his phone and illegally wrote legislation. Yet again.

Need I say more? :BangHead:

He's been using this to shut down the porn industry, and I figured it would come to this, eventually. A lot of folks who were cheering the prone business being shut down aren't so thrilled about that action, now.

Also, I'd like to make a few libbies eat their "Obama ain't coming after your guns" statements.
