People are making threats on there too.
I tried to report it for that too, but fb only lets you report a page once.

This page gotta go.

I've been told those assclowns don't give a shit about racist/sexist or other types of offensive hate speech. They go after bullying and nudity, according to a friend of mine who can stand that shit!

Moderate folk/independents who are repulsed by that kind of bigotry are more likely to vote Democrat if they see it.
