Facebook Inc on Friday removed the pages of US right-wing group Patriot Prayer and its founder Joey Gibson, said a company spokesman. Patriot Prayer has hosted dozens of pro-gun, pro-Trump rallies. Attendees have repeatedly clashed with left-wing groups around Portland, Oregon, where one group supporter was killed this week. Facebook took down the pages as part of efforts to remove "violent social militias" from its social networks.
