Facebook is Watch My Wifes Sister 5 Onlinetaking action against hateful posts and misinformation surrounding the mass shooting that left eight people dead in Atlanta earlier this week.
On March 16, Robert Aaron Long allegedly shotand killed eight people at three different Atlanta businesses: Young’s Asian Massage Parlor, Aromatherapy Spa, and Gold Spa. Seven of the victims were women. Six were identified as Asian.

In addition, the social networking company will not let anyone create a new account on Facebook or Instagram using the same name as the suspected shooter.

“We’ve confirmed that these screenshots are fake and we’re removing them from the platform for violating our policies,” said a Facebook spokesperson in a comment provided to Mashable.
While the Facebook account is fake, the company has found an Instagram account that is actually linked to the shooter. Facebook says it removed the account, which has been inactive for a while, and it will continue to monitor its platforms for additional accounts belonging to the shooter and remove them.
Facebook also says it's in touch with law enforcement concerning the shooting.
#StopAsianHate and other comments and hashtags supportive of the Asian American community quickly spread online following the attack. The past year has seen a significant uptickin racist rhetoric and violence targeting Asians across the U.S.
