Bill O’Reilly was afraid ISIS Gear was cutting into his ‘Factor’ Gear.

They act quick to ban normal people, but have to be hounded to do something about bearded savages.

It’s not a 1A issue...FB is a private company, not the USG, that actively discriminates against conservatives and Christians...the story here is that they had to be “encouraged” to shut down the page as opposed to their being proactive against the former...

Don’t know what kind of bug you have up your a$$ but it’s quite evident you don’t like being challenged on a premise (your snark about acronyms(?) when I actually used abbreviations)...

And for the record, I don’t know nor care about FB, it’s simply not a 1A issue as you insinuated. Sorry to throw a little cold water on your premise.
