Facebook removes ‘Kenosha Guard’ page following shooting


One commentor wrote on the Stand Up Kenosha page on Facebook: “Shoot to kill folks. Cause they won’t give you a second chance.”A Facebook spokeswoman said the company had not found evidence suggesting the shooter followed the Kenosha Guard page or had been invited to its event. She said Facebook was also removing content tied to the shooting, including the suspect’s page, which previously showed him posing with rifles. Before its removal from Facebook, the Kenosha Guard’s profile photos featured a large American flag and a man holding a military-style rifle. After the shooting, the group posted a statement saying it was “unaware if the armed citizen was answering the Kenosha Guard Militia’s call to arms.”
