Title: Facebook shuts down Skullbound TV page

You may have seen this already but being a outdoorsman, hunter and conservationist in the modern age of today and social media has plenty of negative ripple effects - and I'm in digital marketing as a profession.

Good chance it's a single person that did this. I advertise on facebook and my ads get approved with kill photos included.

I'm sure change is coming on their acceptable use policy.  Putting kill shots on a public forum like FB will eventually be governed by FB.

It's already governed by FB. After I design an ad they approve the ad before it goes live. Most of my ads get approved. I meant that there may be an individual here or there working for facebook that uses their position to express their dislike for hunting by taking some unreasonable action such as you mention. Hunting is a pretty big thing on facebook, a ton of hunters participate on FB, it would be silly to eliminate hunting, not saying it couldn't happen but I don't think it will. More likely that bad photos will be removed and sometimes an employee may abuse their position to further a personal agenda.

Legal hunting gets shut down but hate sites like https://www.facebook.com/DinyaColumbus (https://www.facebook.com/DinyaColumbus) and many others like it are allowed?
