Facebook takes action against users for calling accused cop killer 'illegal immigrant,' 'illegal alien'
Amid accusations that Facebook employs secretive content policing strategies, which critics say disproportionately impact conservative users, the social media giant is now being accused of removing posts that describe Gustavo Perez Arriaga — the man police accuse of murdering California police officer Ronil Singh — as an "illegal immigrant."
What are the details?
According to Blue Lives Matter, Facebook has informed multiple users that posts declaring "Arriaga" to be an "illegal immigrant" or "illegal alien" violate the platform's community rules for "hate speech."
In one instance, a user posted a picture with Singh and Arriaga side-by-side. Above and below Singh's picture were the words "vetted legal immigrant" and "protector" while the words "unvetted illegal immigrant" and "[alleged] murderer" were above and below Arriaga's.
Facebook removed the image.
"This photo goes against our Community Standards on hate speech," Facebook told the user.

I rather enjoy this charade Of A Country whose population has zero self respect which builds
such good Character for the children, To think of of the people that fought in wars for this,
and a rotten corrupt government and cnn throwing garbage in your face ?
Thanks for nothing.
And the cop that died whose child will never know his father ? The population
that allows sanctuary cities is exactly what killed him. Feel good Now ?
