Gerry Connolly our Representative's Facebook Policy, Freedom of Speech?

If you make comments, disagreeing with Gerry Connolly on his facebook page(Govt offical one), you can get blocked. Apparently the Weasel is "very sensitive," and has decided to block people for disagreeing with him, along with also of course making all previous comments of that person disappear.

While Facebook has grey areas, this is censorship by a government official, who refuses to represent us properly. All of the comments on Connolly's wall are positive for the most part, wonder why? Because he blocks so many users, whether you like him or not. That's not two way communication with our elected official, who represents Fairfax.
