anyone else hear about this?

 George Soros buying up the gun industry in the USA     
      Be sure to check the link on the very bottom & look that site over real good too, very informative!![/b][/font]  [/size][/color]For the last several years a company called  "The Freedom Group" has been buying up American gun and ammunition manufacturers. [/font][/font][/size][/color]http://www.freedom-group.com/[/i][/color]    [/font][/font][/size][/color]   Some of these companies are:[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i]  [/font][/font][/size][/color]Bushmaster,[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  Marlin,[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  Remington,[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  DPMS,[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  Dakota Arms and[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  H&R.[/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i]
DPMS Panther Arms
NEF
Dakota Arms
LC Smith
Parker
AAC
Barnes Bullets
EOTAC
INTC
[/font][/font][/size]

Some people worry that Freedom Group is going to control most of the firearms companies in the United States. Of course, If you control the manufacturers you can decide not to sell to civilians, or, you can raise the prices to ridiculous levels or you can make the supply of guns and ammo scarce - all sorts of logjams.[/color]
[/font][/font][/size][/color]  [/font][/font][/size][/color]   What a perfect way to control America's[/font][/font][/size] guns![/color][/b][/i]

If you do some digging you will see that The Freedom Group is owned by a Wall Street investment company called "Cerberus Capital Management".
[/font][/font][/color][/i][/b][/font][/font][/size][/color]  [/font][/font][/size][/color]   "Cerberus" in the epic book "The Inferno" by Dante Alighieri, is a three-headed demon hound (from Roman mythology) that guards the Gates of Hell to prevent those damned souls who have just crossed the river Styx[/font][/font][/size], from escaping back to the world.[/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  [/font][/font][/size][/color]   Investor GEORGE SOROS owns Cerberus![/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]  [/color]http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2009/10/cerberus-plans-ipo-for-freedom-group-companies-remington-bushmaster-marlin-dpms/[/font][/color][/font][/size]  Here's a comment from this web site: [/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i]Cerberus is big enough to make waves in Washington[/font][/font][/size]. Money talks in politics and Cerberus has lots of it.”[/color][/font][/font][/size][/color] 
Please pass this on to all your freedom loving friends. This needs to come out - and quickly!  Why have we not heard about this in the "mainstream" media? I would think this would be BIG news.
[/font][/font][/size][/color][/i][/b][/font][/font][/size][/color]  [/font][/font][/size][/color]    The absence of big media coverage on this important subject should be BIG news to you, too![/font][/font][/size][/color][/b][/i][/font][/font][/size][/color]   [/font][/font][/size][/color][/font][/font][/size][/color]     [/t][/t][/t]

    Tried to clean it up. Don't know why it prints out like this. The original didn't have all the font, color junk. Still imfprmative. There is a list of finearms that printed out very small when I pasted. NEF and other major fire arms companies were listed.

Yes I have seen it, I pray it is false but we all know he is after our guns so it may very well be true.  I ran across the article last week and tried to "cut and paste" to make a post but I could not make it work. I also understand that Michale just made a speech in which she stated that, if re-elected Obama intends to tighten the restriction on gun ownership.

IT SOUNDS LIKE HILLARY CLINTON AND THE BAKER GROUP HAVER JUMPED IN BED WITH (SOROS) ….
——-

EDITOR: Enough Already with this Soros Nonsense!

George Soros does NOT own or control the Freedom Group or any of its subsidiaries. Got That?

We don’t know how this rumor started, but it is WRONG.

Repeat: Soros does NOT own or control the Freedom Group of Companies. And he does NOT own or control the Freedom Group parent, Cerberus Capital Management.

Dear Editor, No, Soros does not own Freedom Group HOWEVER he does own Cerebrus [sic] does he not???

EDITOR: NO, NO, NO. Repeat NO!

Got it yet?

George Soros does not own or control Cerberus Capital management.

Reports that he does are completely, 100% WRONG!

Can we be any more clear about this?!

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerberus_Capital_Management

See: http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/freedom.asp

See: http://www.ammoland.com/2011/10/07/freedom-group-internet-rumor/

Some idiot bloggers have been linking to an older post from this site in connection with their bogus claim that Soros owns Cerberus. We NEVER, EVER wrote that, and we never even mentioned Soros.
