Bloomberg clearly will not stop until the 2A is dead.
His group Everytown for Gun Safety ( which is almost entirely funded just by him ), has been lobbying Facebook to ban all gun sales on the online service for over a year. Well, Bloomberg's group has now succeeded. Mark Zuckerberg has announced that Facebook will immediately put an end to all sales of firearms, gun parts, accessories, and ammunition on Facebook.
While licensed gun dealers will still be allowed to advertise these items on Facebook, they too, will be forbidden from actually transacting sales using Facebook.
In addition to the lobbying pressure put on Facebook by Bloomberg's groups, it is said that President Obama, members of Federal law enforcement, and several state attorney generals all put pressure on Zuckerberg and other Facebook officials to take action. The Federal government reportedly informed Facebook that it was facilitating the illegal sale of guns to not only felons and other prohibited adults, but also to minors too.
The enemies of the 2A remain on the march folks.
Here are links to some news reports about this development:

I wonder how long it will be, before Bloomberg, Obama, and all of their cronies start to target websites like Northwest Firearms???
