    Facebook Bans Second Amendment Group Without Explanation

    Facebook Bans Second Amendment Group Without Explanation

    It's just control of what you should read and not read by the Lib's.....

    The Virginia Citizens Defense League says it's gotten no accounting of move from tech giant as A top Virginia gun-rights group was booted from Facebook without explanation on Tuesday, a move the tech giant confirmed but refused to explain.

    Philip Van Cleave, president of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, told the Washington Free Beacon that the group's page disappeared without explanation. The company said the decision to remove the page is final—but did not provide further details.

    "This was correctly actioned and we will not be republishing," Facebook spokeswoman Kristen Morea said. She declined to elaborate on the decision.

    Van Cleave said the group used its Facebook page exclusively to communicate with its members as well as organize electoral and legislative efforts. The group's page helped raise awareness of Gov. Ralph Northam's (D.) controversial gun-control agenda in 2020 and mobilized activists to help block some Democratic proposals. The league also took to social media to spread the word about COVID guidelines in the months leading up to a peaceful driving demonstration in Richmond on January 18. Van Cleave said the ban deprives the league of such capabilities in the future

    not exclusively,

    they have email blasts (that had to change companines cause they were booted from a platform they used)
    instagram (recently switched user names)

    and maybe Twatter, (never checked)


    I'm not a fakebook user, but I know several guys that have had pages or groups erased due to firearms content,

    most have learned to keep the pages member only, or rather protected, as in you have to have a secret handshake to get in,
    and even then they get caught and deleted every now and then

        Plenty of 2A pages operate just fine.

        Too many enthusiastic people think they are free to openly express themselves through threats in violation of their user agreement.

          likely some, now,

          but the pages I spoke of were taken down years ago,

          one that I know of is on it's 2nd or 3rd iteration,

          and it's invite only, not public, and for research and evals of firearms, mostly battle rifle types (creator is a big 7.62 rifle fan, )
