Well over 18,000 now. Should pass 20,000 in the next few hours.

It's not so much the numbers but how quickly they have been achieved. It's what they call "going viral". ;)

So Bookface took down the page, but apparently all of the local ETFGS pages are still up.

And now there's a new ETFGS page back up and running.

I wonder how long this will go on.

Somebody will be banned from the Book of Face very soon, methinks.  He's going against their lefty orthodoxy.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Can the Face really ban people? A new email address, and you're back in business, right?

Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,

Nice of FB to give you the chance to report a page. The "It's harrassing me or someone I know." option seems to fit nicely.

Ok, I'm cornfused now. lol
Apparently someone else grabbed the name and reopened it and the Bloomys grabbed the same name but added .org to the end of the address. So, the one with no .org in the address is the new pro gun page and the one whose address ends in .org is the anti one. Likes on the pro gun page are above 3000, bloomy's is struggling to make it to 200. Hope this helps or at least doesn't confuse you more.  :facepalm:

The anti page is being flooded with pro comments and yes, the comments on the pic of the entire round coming out the barrel are good for many laughs. Not sure when they'll catch on to what's been happening but they have a lot of work ahead of them when they do.  =D

Wow, they fail hard. Apparently, that photos been up for 5 hours, and has gotten nothing but pro-gun responses. The photo's still on their homepage, or whatever it's called, with the comments calling out their fail. Their whole Facebook page is eaten up with pro-gun sentiment.

I don't know how Facebook works, but can't they take it down, or delete the comments, or are they just off for the night? Are we sure the Bloomies really put up that page?

Guess we can enjoy it while it lasts.  :laugh:
