Blue Lives Matter confirmed that Facebook is taking actions against Facebook accounts that call a cop-killer an illegal immigrant.
Corporal Ronil Singh was murdered within 100 miles of Facebook’s headquarters, but the company appears to be concerned about anybody pointing out that his killer was in the country illegally.
Corporal Singh’s murderer was a member of one of the violent Mexican gangs that have taken over parts of sanctuary LA, other areas of California, and other states.
A Sheriff’s Deputy posted this and it couldn’t be more factual:
After several hours, it was taken down by Facebook and the Deputy was suspended from Facebook for thirty days. What he said is not hate speech. It’s the truth.
This is the message he received:
Facebook user Dana Marie says that she didn’t even post a picture of the killer when she got flagged for “hate speech.” Dana posted images of Corporal Singh and his family, with the text: “This is officer Singh. He was killed by an ILLEGAL ALIEN 5 hours after he took this picture with this beautiful wife, baby and k9! This is precisely why we need to #buildthatwall! RIP hero”
What she wrote is NOT ‘hate speech’ either. The people behind these takedowns are blithering idiots who don’t have a clue as to what’s hate and what is just a retelling of the facts.
I’ve been the victim of a takedown myself. They took my profile page down without explanation and wouldn’t put it back up. I believe it was over my use of the legal term, ‘illegal alien’. I had been warned the day before.

One has to be exceeding careful today about implying universal generalities. If you want to find a liberal getting into their depth, that is how you will do it. Don’t do it — resist the temptation.
Exactly!

They really should not call the cop killer an illegal immigrant.
That insults real immigrants like the murdered cop.
Illegal alien is the proper legal term.
I’ll go one step further...I’ll call that murderous scum an illegal alien.
Generalities are, by definition, not universal nor specific. Generalities serve a legitimate purpose. Don’t be tempted, rather be determined. Embrace the tactic. Dig beneath their depth.
Call the Cop Killer what he is, an Illegal Invader.
Immigrants are invited, Invaders are repelled.
The veracity of a generalization is not determined by its lack of exceptions but by whether it is generally true.
That’s what I said :)
Told the wife we will skip Disneyland as there are too many damn Mexicans. That did NOT go over well.
I use FB for music, and being part of the music scene in my country. I do not post anything political. Fascist from the LW are way too aggressive. It’s best to stay away from the Fascist LW
” The people behind these takedowns are blithering idiots who don’t have a clue as to what’s hate and what is just a retelling of the facts.”
Disagree. They know exactly what they’re doing and are using their “community standards” as a weapon to forward their political agenda.
I’ll go one step further than that.
Bring back,
“Wanted Dead or Alive, REWARD” posters everywhere.
unlawfull? Non law abiding? Not legal? Several ways to skin that cat and make chinese food.
I also prefer the term invader.
Immigration is a legal process, so illegal immigrant is actually an oxymoron.
And I suppose illegal invader would be a redundancy.
So I’ll just go with invader.
