Facebook orders war hero who lost both legs and an arm in Afghanistan to remove picture of his ‘offensive’ stump
‘A war hero who lost both legs and an arm while serving in
Afghanistan has called Facebook ‘harsh and narrow-minded’ after they
removed a picture of one of his stumps because it was ‘offensive’.
Former Corporal Andy Reid, 37, from St Helens, Merseyside became a triple-amputee when a landmine exploded while he was on patrol in Helmand Province in 2009.
The father-of-one posted the picture of his stump with the caption ‘hard work on the legs today’.
But it was taken down by the social media’s site communities team after a user complained about it.’
