Facebook censoring firearm photos?

[littlefitz]

I regularly check out the Facebook page for Bear's Gun Room to see what new stuff they get in. I went there this evening and saw something I've never seen before on any FB page. The picture was censored and I had to click that I actually wanted to see it, despite the chance it might be "graphic or violent." I know Facebook is no friend to the conservative cause but I was a bit surprised. Has anyone seen that before? Does anyone know how an image is determined to be worthy of censorship?

My LGS has been putting many pics up...none censored...maybe cause he's just a small local shop...but he gets some great pieces...

Never seen that before and I frequent a few gunshop fb pages.

Thank you for not displaying the graphic photo as I'm sure its horrific and it's nearly my bedtime

I've never seen it because I only go on FB when someone posts a link here to something there, BUT I have heard of this before, so it's not something they just now started doing.

Someone may have flagged it. Shawnee Gun in Plymouth posts a lot of gun pics and none have been censored.

See it happening on Tanners page, not all images though which seems weird.

Seems like a new way to exercise your social justice warrior prowess
