House Democrats are very unhappy with Facebook for allowing ads for weapons accessories. (Photo: Gage Skidmore)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Democrats in Congress won\u2019t be satisfied until all advertisements for any gun-related accessories or protective equipment are removed from Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That was the underlying message of a letter<\/a> sent to the social media company by 23 Democrats serving on the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. The legislators take particular issue with the fact that, according to Buzzfeed, Facebook users continued to receive ads for \u201clong-range hunting ammunition\u201d following the social media company\u2019s ban on weapons accessories and protective equipment from January 6 to 22.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhile it was encouraging that Facebook took action to ban certain types of troubling advertising on its platforms through January 22, more must be done since our nation continues to face a threat from violent domestic extremists,\u201d Democrats writes. \u201cFurthermore, additional clarity and transparency is needed around how these ads are selected for users and what influence they may have on users, particularly those who are known to be active in extremist groups that peddle disinformation and conspiracy theories.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s unclear exactly why the legislators focus on ammunition since Facebook long ago banned any advertisements for weapons or ammunition. The social media giant still allows ads for gun-related “accessories,” but they banned those ads too between the riots and President Biden’s inauguration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The legislators pose a series of questions to Facebook connecting weapons accessories and ballistic vests to the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, they ask, \u201cWhat steps does Facebook plan to take to ensure that advertisements for weapons or other tactical military equipment and accessories are not targeted in a manner that can jeopardize public safety?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also want to know how many employees are responsible for reviewing weapons-related advertisements and how Facebook reviews the audience for advertisements for \u201cweapons or other tactical military equipment and accessories.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They do not explain how hunting ammunition or gun holsters could be considered \u201ctactical military equipment\u201d nor do they explain how advertisements for such equipment lead to violence or extremism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn\u2019t take long for the corporate media and anti-gun politicians to begin blaming the riots on January 6 on Facebook ads for protective vests and weapons accessories. Citing Buzzfeed, the New York Times reported<\/a> that \u201cconcerned employees and users of the social network\u201d noticed an \u201cuptick\u201d in advertisements for gun holsters and body armor following the riots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SEE ALSO: The Atlantic: \u2018The gun-rights movement deserves a reckoning\u2019 for Capitol Occupation<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These ads were being shown to people who \u201cengaged with\u201d alleged misinformation about the presidential election and Capitol riots, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is very, very bad, according to attorneys general for Massachusetts, New Jersey, Illinois and Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe believe that Facebook\u2019s micro-targeted advertising of such gear, including to audiences that have an affinity for extremist content and election misinformation, could promote and facilitate further politically motivated attacks,\u201d the attorneys wrote in a letter to Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The allegations are high on emotion and short on proof, but that isn\u2019t stopping anyone in Congress from taking Facebook to task for their alleged mismanagement of advertising and promotion of violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
