This was an update that I just got:
GE Capital (GE +2.5%) cuts off lending to gun shops in response to public backlash since the Sandy Hook shootings.
What you do today is important, you are trading a day in the rest of your life for it.

The way guns are selling gun shops shouldn't need to borrow.

I read that GE capital had deals set with Buds gun shop and others so buyers could buy a gun and make payments over a year.

GE has always been a lefty organization.
Can't say I've every heard of financing a gun through anything other than a credit card tho.

They're bastids as far as being quick to pull the "trigger" if a borrower is even close to default. Call the note is all they know. I know this from being on the same side as they are........not from a borrower's perspective. And they [bleep] other banks if there's any other banks involved. Schitty company for sure.

What would you expect? They are a subsidiary of General Electric and look at who is running GE; Jamie, the Crook, Dimon! Need say no more! GE hasn't paid any income taxes since the lop-eared bastid got into the White House, either!
