Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry and the state’s Bond Commission denied $600 million to Citibank and Bank of America over the gun control stance adopted by both companies.[More]About damn time. I'd like to see the feds do that, too, but that would require an AG that's not a compromised puss.
Now watch the banks sue and some activist federal judge side with them.

I saw the piece in Breitbart, but I like the local Advocate for the detailed quotes:

“You can’t put a price tag on the Second Amendment,” state Rep. Blake Miguez, an Erath Republican who was serving as a proxy Representative of the House.
Miguez said the Louisiana Bond Commission should not be doing business with Citibank and Bank of America because their policies improperly restrict the availability of certain styles of weapons used in mass shootings.
“I know you’re from New York,” Miguez told Brandee McHale, the head of Corporate Citizenship at Citigroup Inc., who had come to Baton Rouge to testify about the financial giant’s gun policy. “This is Louisiana. This is not California. This is not Canada. … This is an infringement on 2nd amendment Constitutional rights in Louisiana.”

About Damn time someone with balls talked liked that.
