George Soros, Freedom Group, Cerberus, Gun Manufacturers

[Kase]

For the last several years a company called "The Freedom Group" has been buying up American gun and ammunition manufacturers.

Some of these companies are:

Bushmaster,
Marlin,
Remington,
DPMS,
Dakota Arms and
H&R.
DPMS Panther Arms
NEF
Dakota Arms
LC Smith
Parker
AAC
Barnes Bullets
EOTAC
INTC


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.

What a perfect way to control America's guns!

If you do some digging you will see that The Freedom Group is owned by a Wall Street investment company called "Cerberus Capital Management".

"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, from escaping back to the world.

Investor GEORGE SOROS owns Cerberus!

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.

The absence of big media coverage on this important subject should be BIG news to you, too!

My question is, is any of this true? Or is it just a fake forward to **** off people like me?

Any help on this is appreciated, because if true, we are in for a world of hurt

most of it is true ......not to worry thou ......when a company is bought out by freedom group, it seems like the employees will find a way to regroup and open a new company producing the same thing and selling the old company name......bushmaster employees just re opened a new factory

I can say with 100% certainty that all of those companies have not been bought out. Now if this "Freedom Group" even exists, I can say with reasonable certainty that they do not own a majority stake in the companies I am most familiar, which would leave it a complete hoax, or they own smaller portions, which means they would have to buy a larger portion AND convince the rest of the shareholders and Executives to make a horrible, horrible business move.

To put it bluntly, no freaking way.

Edit: Spoke before I verified. There is some truth there, but my main sentiment remains. Trying to sustain a decision that large across that many brands would not go over well. Even if it did, displaced workers would form new companies.

snopes.com: George Soros - Freedom Group

 

[JetGirl]

Yes, and no.

It's true that those firearm companies have been purchased and are under the umbrella of The Freedom Group. However, Cerberus was started (and is owned) by Stephen Feinberg. No reputable sources list Soros in any way connected to Cerberus. The Soros connection is the stuff emails and discussion boards are pumping out there... Just an FYI.

Scooped by TomN. Sorta!

I didn't need snopes.

 

[Mad Man]

According to Snopes this is false!

Don't be hatin'!

The CEO of Bushmaster sold the company I believe 5 years ago. I would not buy a new Bushmaster because the quality has gone down hill.

Who is buying companies manufacturing guns??

For the last several years a company called The Freedom Group has been
buying up gun and ammunition manufacturers. Some of the companies are
Bushmaster, Marlin, Remington, DPMS, Dakota Arms and H&R. Some people
worry that this Freedom Group is going to control most of the firearms
companies in the United States.

If you control the manufacturers you can decide to stop selling to civilians.
What a perfect way to control guns.

Now if you do some digging you will see that The Freedom Group is owned
by a company called Cerberus Capital Management.

Guess who controls Cerberus??? GEORGE SOROS !!!!!!!!! One of the most
evil men on this planet who wants to restrict or ban all civilian guns.

Please pass this on to all your freedom loving friends. This needs to
come out. Why have we not heard about this in the "mainstream" media? I
would think this would be BIG news.

If you don't know who George Soros is you need to do some research. He
backed Obama with millions of dollars and Obama is kinda like his puppet.

Send this to every gun owner in America.

"FREEDOM GROUP" - is this real?

Just curious...

Mystery company buying up U.S. gun manufacturers


kind of odd that they seem to be buying up all the gun manufacturers that they can.

 

[Johnny C]

Probally a UN backed group that will stop selling to civvies.

 

[Expat]

Thanks for the article. After Remington sold I tried to do some searches and never could find any real info on who these people were. Kind of made me nervous.

 

[Leo]

Yep, this is the real deal. If all arms are under control of one company, then a one world governmenmt only has to control one source of arms.

 

[furbymac]

if i remember right this was found to be a false story on one of those fancy sites that investigates tall tales like these but i can't think of the name of the site at the moment.

 

[printcraft]

"Freedom Group" is probably a misnomer.

"Hey, Let's call it "Second Amendment Champions!"
No George... I've got a better one... "Freedom Group!"
Bwaahhaahahahhahah! They'll never suspect a thing!?"
