“Everytown for Gun Safety.” on facebook

Post by AlanM »

I don't know if this site is pro or anti-gun but the wording of this article title makes me lean toward anti.

A Pro-Gun Group Stole Bloomberg’s Gun Safety Group’s Name On Facebook
Former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg announced on Tuesday the creation of Everytown for Gun Safety, a major gun-control campaign that will combine some of his previous efforts.
But a pro-gun group has already reserved that page on Facebook. The first post the group made proudly stated that it stole the name of Bloomberg’s group.

Lol. Funny.

I imagine that it won't last, though.

Got a good laugh out of the article. Googled and found the VA site here: https://www.facebook.com/everytownforgunsafetyva

Other state sites coming up as well on Facebook.

If you go onto Facebook and do a search for "Everytown For Gun Safety" you will get a list of 100 facebook pages with those words in their title.
I suspect that Facebook's search function limits the list to 100.
