In the past month, John Sibley has been responsible for the takedown of more than 1,000 Facebook groups selling guns. He and others are part of a ragtag social media militia of sorts they say are trying to fill a gap in Facebook's gun ban (http://mashable.com/2016/01/29/facebook-instagram-ban-gun-sales/).*
They spend their free time reporting private gun sales that still permeate the social network months after Facebook banned the deals. And there are a lot of posts to report. While Sibley's personal tally is on the high side, Mashable spoke to others who flag dozens, even hundreds per week.*
