Fron the National Shooting Sports Federation (NSSF) "Bullet Points" 7 JAN 2008:

CREDIT CARD PROCESSING COMPANY REJECTS FIREARMS INDUSTRY

REFUSES TO PROCESS TRANSACTIONS . . . Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp. are refusing to process any credit card transactions between federally licensed firearms retailers, distributors and manufacturers -- a move which will severely limit available inventory of firearms and ammunition to military, law enforcement and law-abiding Americans.

The first company to be affected by this decision appears to be firearms distributor CDNN Sports Inc.

"We were contacted recently by First Data/Citi Merchant Services by a June Rivera-Mantilla stating that we were terminated and funds were being seized for selling firearms in a non-face-to-face transaction," said Charlie Crawford, president of CDNN Sports Inc. "Although perfectly legal, we were also informed that no transactions would be processed in the future, even for non-firearms. I find this very frightening."

To voice your concern to Citi Merchant Services and First Data Corp., please contact June Rivera-Mantilla at 631-683-7734 or her supervisor Robert Tenenbaum at 631-683-6570.

To change to an NSSF-affiliated credit card processing program, contact Payment Alliance International at 1-866-371-2273 (ext. 1131).

Here is the letter



Citibank CLEARLY does not know the law, it is perfectly legal to ship a handgun to another state as long as it is shipped to an FFL.

Such "integrity"!

From a banking system so completely saturated with laundered narcotics cash from South America, that if just the laundered drug money was removed from their coffers, the entire industry would collapse overnight.

Oh!...and by the way...Before some here have a knee-jerk reaction claiming that Katherine Austin Fitts is a "conspiracy nut", be advised that she has been a life-long Republican, and served under George H.W. Bush in Washington working with Republican Jack Kemp.
