Last month, Facebook suspended a woman for posting a meme on her page, Restless Patriot, including a photo of San Bernardino shooter Tashfeen Malik in reference to Donald Trump’s Muslim immigration policy. Just ten days into her Facebook “jail sentence,” the woman found that she is now blocked from using the Messenger feature on her account.
“This feature is temporarily blocked,” the woman was notified when she tried to send a message to another Facebook user.
The meme for which the manager of the Restless Patriot was being punished last month had included the following written text next to Malik’s image:
Presidential candidate Donald Trump is calling for “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on. Do you agree?
In addition to removing the post from her page, Facebook blocked the woman from posting anything further to Facebook, notifying her that she had “repeatedly posted things that aren’t allowed on Facebook.” This occurred shortly before Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s public announcement “in support of Muslims in our community and around the world,” vowing to create a “peaceful and safe environment” for Muslim Facebook users.
Apparently, a “peaceful and safe environment” for Muslims means allowing radical Islamic killers to pledge their allegiance to ISIS on Facebook and completely shutting out all conservatives and critics of ISIS and Islamic terror. A tad “Islamophobic” to assume all Muslims will be offended by condemnations of Islamic terror, is it not?
“This feature is temporarily blocked.”

The Restless Patriot manager told The Daily Wire that in the past, she was placed in “Facebook jail” several times and was allowed to use the chat feature of her account, but not this time.
“I can’t delete a photo, nothing!” she said. “Not sure what FB policy is but I am totally locked out. When I get out of jail, I will probably cleanse my account and shut it down.”
The woman’s Facebook sentence will reportedly be over less than 24 hours from now. Katie Harbath, global politics and government outreach director at Facebook, did not return The Daily Wire’s request for comment in time for publishing.
