Credit cards have enabled many of America’s mass shootings in the last decade—and with Washington unwilling to act, they need to cut off the sales of weapons of war today.https://twitter.com/JeffreyCook/status/1172118681855373312 …

Banks and credit card companies must: Refuse to take part in the sale of assault weapons. Stop processing transactions for gun sales online & at gun shows without background checks. Stop doing business with gun & ammo manufacturers who produce or sell assault weapons

This kind of discrimination should be illegal.

Where's the discrimination?

He's suggesting discrimination against gun businesses. And his motive for doing so is even worse: to try to sabotage innocent peoples' rights. On top of that, he is doing it this way explicitly to bypass the government and legislative due process.

His motive is not sabotage innocent people, and he is not discriminating against companies. His motive is to impede the proliferation of mass shootings. Weapons of increasing lethality warrant higher scrutiny. He's discriminating against high lethality weapons, not companies.
