Phil, I hope this "delay" is permanent. Pay Pal is anti-gun and under a
gun owners' boycott. The Freedom Summit has already killfiled their plan
to use Pay Pal (see below). I hope Brassroots will do the same.

Subject: PayPal is anti-gun
Thanks for pointing out paypals anti-gun policy. We weren't aware of it
because they don't list the policy under the accounts section. You can only
find it if you are interested in becoming a paypal shop which we were not
interested in.
I will remove paypal from our webpage and close our account immediately. It
just goes to show you that the price of freedom really is eternal vigilance.
I've included their policy below for reference.
Thanks,
Stu Krone
Firearms/Guns/Explosives
Shopkeepers who sell firearms or explosives will be disqualified from
listing in PayPal Shops. Any item that is designed to propel a metal (or
similar) projectile is covered by this policy. Exceptions to this rule
include collectible, curio & relic, and antique firearms, as well as
archery supplies.
Firearms-related items that are not permitted include silencers, converters
(any item which can convert a firearm to have automatic capability), short
barrels, and kits (any kit that can be used to create a firearm). High
capacity magazines and ammunition with propellant cannot be listed. Blank
ammunition is not allowed.
There is Federal and state laws requiring that replica, "look alike" and
imitation firearms have clear markings permanently affixed to the weapon.
This law applies even to novelty items, such as cigarette lighters that are
designed to look like firearms. All look-alike items of this nature listed
by a PayPal Shopkeeper must comply with the law.

If a man neglects to enforce his rights, he cannot complain if, after a while, the law follows his example.
