    Default Facebook considering banning gun-related pages

    I didn't see this posted elsewhere. Feel free to close it or merge it if it is.

    Gun control is losing steam. After doing their best to use the tragedy in Newtown to limit the constitutional rights of American citizens when it comes to owning and using guns, the millions of dollars and countless hours of campaigning led to exactly nothing happening on the national level and very little on the state level. Even those changes that did squeak through are being fought tooth and nail in the judicial system, and gun control advocates are quickly losing ground there as well. The reason is obvious: gun owners are well organized, engaged, and motivated. So naturally the next step for gun control advocates is to pressure Facebook into banning gun related pages — which they’re doing.
    Sorry if this is messy, posting from my phone since my job blocks TTAG.

    Can Facebook stop individuals from posting gun-related links, pictures, and comments? If we are an organized group, then we should inundate FB with gun-related posts.

    Several "friends" unfriended me because I posted some items on the right of women to protect themselves using firearms and of our consittutional right to own firearms.

    We could easily turn this around on the gun control advocates. Contact Facebook en masse and report sites like Mothers Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, Mayors Against Illegal Guns and CeaseFirePA as being gun-related as well.

    Get their pages shut down as well.

    Break the rules and you get no bones,

    Are they Taco Bell or Moe's tacos? If it's either of them, I'm in. If not, pound salt.
