Facebook ends private gun sales
At facebook, users are not the customer. They are the product. Still, it seems like you wouldn’t want to upset your herd:
Facebook will rely on users to report content that violates the new policy, Watts told Fast Company.
Strikes me as odd to upset a decent portion of users. So, this doesn’t surprise me:
The White House on Monday refused to say whether Facebook’s recent decision to ban users from facilitating the sale of guns, parts and ammunition was the result of pressure from the Obama administration.

I’d be careful in making social media posts by the general public into political crimes. The commissars don’t come from just one party, and the leadership of the purges is likely to change from election to election.
I, for one, could see anyone supporting Bernie Sanders denied employment in a for-profit enterprise for cause, anyone supporting Hillary denied employment anywhere for likely corruption, and anyone supporting O’Malley laughed at by everyone.

I belong to a private FB group that advertises firearms for sale in the Houston area. Nobody’s snitched us out yet.
