    You could just make "your team" whichever one wins, and always feel a sense of pride.

    U.S. Bank Declares War on Guns!

    Who will? The banks that are seeking to limit exposure to risk? I don't think so. Sometimes things aren't a big conspiracy, sometimes business decisions are just that. One thing for certain, it's not a "war on guns".

    U.S. Bank Declares War on Guns!

    I understand that it's an algorithm for risk assessment, similar to how an insurance company assesses risk. It's nothing personal, but if you have speeding tickets on your record, and have a history of at fault accidents you're going to pay more or be dropped from coverage altogether. It's not...

    U.S. Bank Declares War on Guns!

    Agreed, but it's still not U.S. Bank. Those types of inaccuracies drive me crazy. It may not seem important, but it is.

    They are essentially creating a credit rating style risk management strategy for determining which clients have the greatest chance of damaging their reputation. Porn shops and drug paraphenalia type shops are also on the list. It's pretty awful that legal businesses that have a tremendous...

    Also, the title of his video is incorrect. It is not U.S. Bank (United States Bank) it's US Bank. (The US doesn't mean anything official) There is no government affiliation with this institution.

    U.S. Bank Declares War on Guns!

    If you trust in free market economics (which I only slightly do) someone will rush to fill the void. Pulling out of providing financial instruments for doing business still doesn't affect legislation. Pot in Colorado is a cash only business, and doing very well. The firearms industry is a far...

    U.S. Bank Declares War on Guns!

    I don't think so. I just think that companies are trying to sterilize their client base as much as possible to avoid future media scrutiny. I doubt they give a damn about gun laws (they care about $$$-and that's it), but they want to avoid headlines like "US Bank lends 10 million to Assault...

    Recommend a solar charger

    Oh yeah, that's a great suggestion. For a weekend trip, you can't beat a battery bank.

    Yeah, Woot typically has some good deals on rechargeable power banks that are good for several phone charges. If you aren't going for a week long hike, solar probably isn't necessary.
