For those who didn't get the memo, FaceBook and Instagram (owned by Facebook) banned the private sale of firearms using their sites yesterday. Personally I'm kind of surprised it took them this long to do it.

I looked at it when it was "The Face Book". It didn't impress.

Created with open source code yet zero credit (requirement of licensed use) to the original authors.

The rest is a really bad movie I did see

Personally armlist has worked well for me buying and selling complete firearms.

Facebook is actually a GREAT source around me for firearms. We have multiple trading post pages and there is always tons of stuff for sale. This is pretty much BS in my eyes.

I love when gun ban groups make stuff up when facts are nonexistent.
Watts said her group has found numerous cases of felons and minors who were able to buy guns on the site, including two cases in which the buyers used the guns to slay others. Representatives of two gun-owner rights groups, including the National Rifle Association, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
There is no source for this, they are making up facts as they go. In order to make outlandish claims, there needs to be a source. If they had a source, they would have it plastered on the MSM.

Since when did facts or the truth ever get in the way of anti-gun rhetoric?

as far as I know facebook hasn't banned recruitment of terrorists yet.
