Facebook Caves to Gun Haters

They have announced new policies with regard to people advocating “gun rights” and promoting gun sales. “The changes, which also apply to Facebook-owned Instagram, include new age limits for posts or pages promoting private sales of restricted items like firearms, alcohol or adult products. There's new policy language with an emphasis on knowing and following laws related to regulated items like firearms and keeping them away from kids. There will be educational messages sent to users who promote the sale of guns and those seeking them out.” It’s a thinly veiled effort to intimidate people who believe the Second Amendment TRUMPS all anti-gun laws. It will LOSE Facebook many users, and I will be one of the first, the very first time their new rules affects me. It infuriates me that they are so hard on people who just want to defend themselves, but not on illegal gun users. (Freedom Outpost)
