Mike Schuetz, the owner of Hawkins Guns LLC, in Hawkins, WI, says the federal government forced the Heritage Credit Union to close his recently opened bank account because he’s in the business of legally selling guns.
The United States Consumer Coalition calls this just the latest example of the extralegal overreach of Operation Choke Point, the Obama administration’s illegal effort to put industries it doesn’t like — especially gun dealers and pay day lenders — out of business.
