In a recent development, major credit companies such as American Express, Visa, and MasterCard are set to implement a new merchant code system to track gun store purchases in the state of California. This move has sparked debate and controversy surrounding Second Amendment rights and privacy concerns.
According to a new report, these credit companies will be able to track sales based on the codes assigned to each retailer. The list of merchants that will be subject to this tracking reportedly includes firearm dealers. The intention behind this initiative is to enhance monitoring and oversight of gun purchases, with the aim of reducing gun crime.
