Facebook Bans Second Amendment Group Without Explanation

"The Virginia Citizens Defense League 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...

Van Cleave said neither he nor the group has ever advocated for violence or been involved with protesting the results of the 2020 election. He said the lack of clarity from Facebook suggests that the ban is "political" and may soon expand to other gun groups...

[Facebook spokeswoman Kristen] Morea told the Free Beacon in January that Facebook would not offer more details on Van Cleave's initial suspension due to a "very real and credible threat that people can game the system" if they understand how it works. "

Just wow. Now FB is even admitting that their censorship rules are unwritten, and they will not tell you what they are, as they want to silence even more Conservatives.

America is rapidly losing all of its cherished freedoms. Everyone should be concerned.

Where in the Constitution does it state that you have the freedom of expression on someone's private property that you do not own, rent or occupy?

Where in the Constitution does it state that you have the freedom of expression on someone's private property that you do not own, rent or occupy?

It's interesting to me how many people who claim to be Americans support big tech censorship.

When it happens to you, you will understand.

I don't support it yet there is nothing in the Constitution for free speech guaranteed by a private corporation....It only concerns the government. I am powerless to stop what they do so I refuse to use their products and services. See how easy that is?

An interesting case of American gun confiscation to read about is the door-to-door confiscation of New Orleans residents' firearms immediately post hurricane Katrina. Law enforcement officers, themselves heavily armed with "assault" weapons, literally went door-to-door and removed guns from the homes of their legal owners. This illegal seizure of private property was justified by law enforcement personnel who executed it with some very specious reasoning and no legal precedent.

What most law abiding American gun owners fail to realize it seems is that the federal government will almost never be the level of authority who tries to physically remove their guns from their homes. What can and likely shall happen at some future date is local law enforcement will door-to-door confiscate firearms at different times in different regions. In that way there will be no MASS organized resistance to confiscation and authorities will be able to take their time doing it.

Wrong.

The thread premise is a lie.

The First Amendment and the doctrine of free speech applies only to the relationship between government and those governed, not between or among private persons and
entities such as FB.

This is more baseless rightwing demagoguery.

The First Amendment and the doctrine of free speech applies only to the relationship between government and those governed, not between or among private persons and
entities such as FB.

The assault on Conservative speech is becoming ubiquitous.

Differing opinions are not tolerated by Left-leaning big tech companies (they banned the POTUS, for Heaven's sake).

Media and big tech are in bed with one political party and have launched an assault on the other. They have basically become a de facto arm of the Democrats and the Biden Admin.

The attack on Free Expression is not only coming from private companies, BTW.

House Democrats want to oust a certain duly-elected member of congress simply because of her controversial viewpoints.

Public school system ban any display of the Confederate flag, while permitting the arguably-equally-objectionable BLM flag.

And the Section 230 immunity that is abused by Facebook and Google to silence Conservative speech has been granted by the government.

But I won't resort to calling you a liar, just not much of a critical thinker.
