Exactly. Are they really this stupid? Track away. Criminals aren't about to use credit cards to purchase illegal firearms.

So, another one who didn’t even bother to read the OP.

Here’s a clue - a lot of people who commit mass choosing don’t expect to survive so they don’t care about credit card records.

Actually, I did read the OP. They mention the Pulse nightclub shooter as their one example. Hardly "a lot."

Most mass shooters bought their weapons legally. This will not stop all gun violence but it will stop some- isn’t that better than nothing? We have got to try something for gods sake.

+1 why are gun nutters such wusses.. "oh, it's too hard to figure out how to lower the gun violence, so let's just all offer thoughts and prayers, and buy more guns".

Idiots. Definitely don't want people who give up on solving difficult problems as our leaders.

Agreed. It’s almost as if they don’t want to decrease gun violence.

well, a lot of people died there.

What's your solution? I'm genuinely curious what the NRA think will solve the amount of mass shootings here.

The Pulse shooter wasn't a criminal?

Did you even read the OP?! It's not even long!

Do you think that would have stopped him?

Visa, Amex and MC don’t have the ability to block certain types of purchases, but the issuing banks can choose to block their cards from being used to purchase certain categories of merchandise/services. But creating a new merchandise category specifically for gun stores, it will enable issuers to adopt such purchases if they want.

It also makes it easier for legislatures to pass laws requiring that purchases in that category above a certain level be reported to law enforcement/regulators for review.

Great to see it

why don't the R politicians care enough about our kids to do something useful about our kids' safety in schools other than "thoughts & prayers"?

This is a different question! I am just happy to see teachers unite for a great cause!

Long overdue.

Law-abiding gun owners won’t care. Criminals use cash

About time. They track clothing sales, food sales, healthcare sales.. why not gun sales.

Of course, the gun nutters claim that even expensive gun safe sales will be categorized as "gun sale", but if you have nothing to hide, not seeing the big deal here.

The FL nightclub shooter bought $26k worth of guns/ammo on his credit card. That would've been flagged had this tracking been in place. Banks will have the option to decline the purchase, and before you say that's unAmerican, no, that's capitalism. Banks have the right to decline a purchase. It's happened to me a few times, including when I tried to pay $6000 for my kid's braces. I had to call them to have them release the funds. Why shouldn't they do that for large gun purchases?

Banks were pressured by large pension holders, one of the largest being the teacher's pension fund in CA and NY. Good for them. Teachers are in the frontlines when it comes to our children's safety at school.
