just seen a group that has made me sick, been hearing about it the last few days but facebook will not shut it down.

that is the direct link, please feel free to report it as its bang outta order or please report to an outside organisation that can act.

I am sorry to say that there are groups like that on similar topics most of us would never consider joking about, The best way to quell them is to report and then ignore, not give more publicity, though I feel your anger.

the majority of ppl i know on fb are angry as its been reported but not took down, worst of it is the age group that most ppl are in 13-24 yrs old, men and women.

i gta 30 day ban not long bk for a picture that insuated jacko as a pedo (nowt sexual or no naked skin) yet this group is allowed to carry on

so you are just upset when you posted a sick joke you were banned, yet they are not?

It may offend you, but it's not illegal to post "sick" jokes and if everything that offended anyone was deleted we would be taking a bad step towards excessive censorship.

You "jacko Joke" was probably removed from where ever it was because it was libel.

BTW, I don't understand why "worst of it is the age group that most ppl are in 13-24 yrs old, men and women."

Are you saying you wouldn't be offended if they were 40year olds?

that would be the frankie boyle fan club group chuck

I never, ever, go on face book and this one of those reasons why.
With two of my daughters having had six miscarriages between them and seeing the heartache it caused I can appreciate the feelings of other woman who may innocently log onto this thread before realising what it is. (If that is possible).
I agree there will always be jokes and comments people find offensive but it does not help when others encourage them by repeating them.

i'm not moaning that i was banned and fb hadn't removed this page, but the fact that people on there are making fun about actual children that have died such has baby p just to name 1.

fb actually removed the group last night to the satisfaction of 1000's of members that reported it.
