I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." - Henry Ford

Emanuel is pushing two major financial institutions to stop their financial backing of gun makers, unless those companies support “commonsense reforms, including requiring criminal background checks on all gun sales.”
Back to the subject matter of my post.
Is it appropriate for government to put pressure on independent financial institutions to help push their agendas?

He's not telling them they can't...He is "putting pressure" on them, i.e., asking them not to. Sounds like a business decision to me. But when you think "they're coming for your guns" all the time, I guess anything looks like a "government abuse of power."
Oh, please do... If every time someone points out the fallacy of your "outrage-of-the-day" it's a "personal insult", you go back to your safe little echo-chamber...
Yes, it is interesting... You think if you yell "personal insult" after every post, it's going to make a difference? I think you do need to go back to that sheltered echo-chamber... Where you'll be safe.
