I'm not a fan of social media but it's just another place where anger at the ROP is going to emerge. Perhaps if they stopped threatening the infidel with death or conversion or committing acts of terrorism then they would not generate these comments etc.

....so no, supression is merely hiding the problem, Islam needs to put it's own house in order, currently at best they show tacit approval, at worst they secretly support them with funds and weapons. When I see Saudi Arabia spending some of it's billions on man power and equipment to hunt down the extremists I may start to think they are not in approval.

NO

[janbee]

NO !

I would call F.B. a Dirty Washing site, who the hell wants to know what you've have for breakfast / dinner?

[THEMOTLEY1]

Very incisive TWR, but what the heck has it got to do with the Question?

[THECORBYLOON]

The comment “For every person beheaded by these sick savages we should drag 10 off the streets and behead them, film it and put it online. For every child they cut in half … we cut one of their children in half. An eye for an eye.” is fine then, yes?

[mushroom25]

it may not be fine TCL, but since there's no racial content it doesn't break the rules and will therefore be left where it is.

it's a screwed up world when saying something racist is perceived as being worse than anything else - including torture and killing......

[Svejk]

Oh dear, every time they are caught grooming/raping 13 year old girls, blumming racists go on line and call them nasty names. Same when they go about their head-chopping, bomb detonating business. It's just not fair, is it?

[TWR]

Peoples Comments, Dirty Washing, what A.O.G. has stated, does that not have anything to do with F..B.? I thought it did.

[ummmm]

Do you use either of those sites, TWR?

[THEMOTLEY1]

We must be seen to be fair to Muslamic Islamists whatever they allegedly do!

[THECORBYLOON]

Incitement to murder a random Muslim (including wee ones) is not racially motivated but it is religiously motivated and Facebook said, “We take hate speech seriously and remove any content reported to us that directly attacks others based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, disability or medical condition" so it should have been removed.

[TWR]

At times Ummmm, only for contacting family in OZ, I can't be @rsed with the rabble that goes on there.

[ummmm]

Then you just don't add friends that talk nonsense.

To answer the question, yes, they should be removed.

[Svejk]

Corby, incitement to murder etc. are not only removed but investigated by the police. Groups like MAMA want to make any negative comments on the RoP a criminal offence. Of course, you being a left winger, you probably welcome total control over people's words and thoughts.

[THECORBYLOON]

Were does the Tell MAMA project say it wants negative comments to be made a criminal offence?

[TWR]

We ALL talk rabble at times Ummmm

[Svejk]

@Corby. They had their government funding removed for spreading lies and disinformation. Instead of suppressing inter-faith violence, for which they were funded, they promoted it. But, of course, you must have known all that but still leapt to their defence. Free world, I suppose. (for now)

[THECORBYLOON]

I have not heard of them but I ask you again, where have they said that negative comments should be made a criminal offence?
