According to cnn.com, mobile payment service provider Square is preparing for an IPO. Financial advisors looking to “clean-up” the company’s image may account for Square’s decision to kneecap its customers’ human, civil and Constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms. Alternatively, Square’s CEO Jack Dorsey may have banned guns and ammo on his own for personal/political reasons . . .
The Twitter co-founder’s on record as admitting that he’d like to be Mayor of New York City. Yup, Dorsey’s a big fan of hi-tech eavesdropper, civilian disarmament proponent and all around fascist bastard, Michael Bloomberg.
“I think that Mayor Bloomberg has done an amazing job, and I and a lot of Silicon Valley look to him as a guiding light because he’s completely rethought what it means to be mayor,” Dorsey told CNN.
I don’t think that means what Dorsey thinks it means, as The People of the Gun will no doubt remind him. That would be the same group of gun owners who are not well pleased with Square’s official explanation for their guns and ammo ban:
A Square spokesman declined to comment on this specific change, but said: “From time to time we revisit our policies governing the use of Square to ensure they are consistent with our values and in the best interests of our customers.”
They did it for their customers. So now you know.
When were the Liberator 3D files first shared? Was it May 6? or May 7? So it’s been about a week? The media shrieked like society had just toppled off a precipice and into a bottomless pit of worldwide bloodshed and chaos . . . criminals and anarchists churning out plastic pistols by the thousands, assassins bypassing security at every level . . . So what’s the death toll now? I think it’s probably zero, because I’m pretty sure that if ONE person had been shot with a Liberator then the media would have gone ballistic. (So to speak.) Yeh. One week of worldwide access to a high-tech zip gun and zero casualties. Go figure.
Well, HELLO FASCIST! Eat shit and die!!
^^^ What he said^^^
I have added Square to my ever growing boycott list, all Movies, Network and Cable news, Paypal, Ebay ect…
Leghorn should remind us all why 7+ round groups are best for consistent accuracy testing.
3 rnd groups aren’t statistically significant
Money doesn’t solve all your problems, buy happiness or love, it just lets you be a bigger asshole.
There are other options. Get over it. Pay cash or layaway.
Silicon Valley, San Jose, San Francisco, Berkeley are only very tolerant and “open-minded” places if you share or go-along-with their political values.
Things that would make the P238 better. Check all that apply.
[] double action with decocker (remember it’s for carry, not IDPA)
[] uglier
[] plastic frame
[] higher price
It’s probably a great gun, but the competition is very stiff for .380’s at the moment, regardless of which price point you’re looking at.
Another metrosexual plutocrat who is ready, willing and able to turn America into sh1t.

Dear Square,
I just heard about your change in your terms of service where you will not allow processing of transaction relating to firearms and ammo sales.
I am a strong believer in the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. Please consider this notice that I will no longer conduct any transactions through your service, and when presented with a Square checkout, I will either end my transaction with the vendor, or pay cash, and inform the vendor of my choice not to conduct business with your company.
Please forward my comments to your Board of Directors, CEO, and anyone else in a position of power in your company.
Regards,
Thomas M.
Picked up a nice little Colt “Government Model .380” many years ago, for about $250. A bit larger than the Mustang, but it was more accurate, and looks more like a scaled-down 1911. Somehow it just “looks right”. Fairly heavy for concealed carry compared to most of the newer poly .380’s. but it sure is a neat little gun.
This Mustang XSP seems kind of clunky compared to that older steel.
Their AR-15 rifles are reasonably priced these days but their pistols are insanely expensive.
Someone needs to make a bullet proof Baby Bjorn with plate carriers and spare mag pouches.
Which side of the baby would the plates be on? Just askin’…
Does the material of this vest deteriorate over time? When I was riding with LE many years ago (not as sworn personnel but as part of a psychiatric emergency response team), I was issued ballistic underwear, but it had to be replaced every two years even in the absence of having taken any rounds, because of time-related degradation of the Kevlar that was its principal component.
I feel safer already. Thanks New York for stopping this terrorist.

I can’t get bent out of shape about this. Dorsey is merely exercising his property and First Amendment rights. He cannot violate anyone’s Constitutional Rights since he is a private citizen. The proper response is for us to take our business elsewhere. If consumer choice results in too much lost business he will reverse his policy or go out of business.
Bangazi, and POTUS claimed he knew nothing.
Fast and Furious, and POTUS claimed he knew nothing.
IRS scandal, and POTUS claimed he knew nothing.
AP phone records seized, and POTUS claimed he knew nothing.
Are you sensing a theme here? Yes, here it is — the President knows nothing — including when to back off. Well, at least he can’t blame Bush for this latest overreach, or the collapse of his abysmal administration. He’s not just a lame duck, he’s a lame snake. And he’ll keep pushing for gun control because he thinks he’s entitled to anything he wants.
Didn’t you know that expanding background checks to cover terrorists would have prevented Benghazi entirely?
The perps and the victims weren’t white enough for MAIG or the liberal grave dancers to care.
maig has seen where it all went wrong, the perp had too many bullets in his gun , so you can’t have an illegal scope mount on your AR, yeah that should fix everything. Randy
Damn! I hope this has export restrictions. The thought of this in the hands
of some of our hostile Muslim malcontents would be a tad unsettling.
From what I see, this is like an instant, infidel sniper kit, just add martyr.
Or am I overshooting the reality?
So, one bolt out of how many? And this proves… what exactly? Saying that this one incident proves Bushmaster is crap is equivalent to saying that one gun murder means all gun owners are criminals.
Statistics…. they mean something.
Sheesh.
It’s a grim realization, no doubt. They say most people will never need a gun, but those who do will need it very VERY badly.
I may not like her, but here’s hoping she never has to use it.
For some reason the “Ride-by” never gained much popularity…
As I have said before, Ware-Ever Pay is perfectly fine with firearm sales through their mobile payment service.
My father just bought this POS and I warned about the dangers of it being anti-constitutional. Sadly he doesnt care and believes that nothings going to happen. What the fuck is wrong of people. hes brainwashed by the media.
