Is Bank of America Forbidding Gun and Ammo Purchases?Mikael Thalen, Contributor This is the beginning of a shocking conversation recorded to YouTube. Bank of America recently revealed their disdain for guns when they began refusing to do business with gun manufacturers and businesses that support the 2nd amendment. Just last December, Joe Sirochman, president of American Spirit Arms,made a Facebook post claiming Bank of America illegally withheld his companys funds because of the nature of its business. But is this video true? If so the bank appears to have gone even further and reportedly stopped all its customers from purchasing any firearms or ammo with their own debit cards. Despite the call sounding authentic, which it could be,another video has surfaced reportedly showing another phone call where a Bank of America employee claims the video isnt true. At this time the viral video appears to be either mistaken, or outright false. Whether the employee misunderstood the question or the call was fake, the allegation at this time appears to be incorrect. Some have speculated that the callers PERSONAL account was suspended, not all debit card users. Regardless of the authenticity of the video, the damage could already be done as thousands of viewers of the video are calling in to cancel their accounts with the bank.
