According to Facebook’s community standards, users are prohibited from “credibly (threatening) harm to others, or (organizing) acts of real-world violence.” The community standards goes on to read:
Safety is Facebook’s top priority. You may not credibly threaten to harm others, or organize acts of real-world violence. We remove content and may escalate to law enforcement when we perceive a genuine risk of physical harm, or a direct threat to public safety. We also prohibit promoting, planning or celebrating any of your actions if they have, or could, result in financial harm to others, including theft and vandalism.
Even as I was researching the issue, the page has been pulled from Facebook. It’s previous residence was here. Apparently word got out and hundreds of people flooded Facebook with protests about the page, which apparently drew more than an automated response.
One wonders if things like this will continue Facebook’s downward spiral among Wall Street Stocks. One thing is for sure, no one should be threatening anyone’s life. It’s good Facebook finally pulled the page, even if it took an avalanche of emails reporting it to do so.

Wow....I almost thought I was reading a Y2K post....
With all due respect, I doubt the winner will be determined election night. This election may make 2000 look like a walk in the park, given the contentiousness. Both sides will have legions of lawyers to battle it out.
I just pray we can scrape up enough votes to get past the "voter fraud zone."
If you are thinking the SS are serious about their jobs, think again. Does the general public hold them in high regard? They are on the hunt for not good things. And FaceBook should be held accountable.
At the beginning of August my tagline was “One of the marks of the Beast is a white lower-case “F” in a blue rounded corner square”.
Changed it a little soon, I guess.
It’s gone now!
BTTT
Excellent post.
Let’s not be too hasty. If Romney wins and then doesn’t stick to his conservative promises; Ann Coulter, I, and quite a few other conservatives voting for this guy may be joining a similar movement.
If he fails to deliver, it is either impeachment or public execution (after a constitutionally-guaranteed speedy trial by a jury of peers, of course).

‘napscoordinator’ is one of the original FR stealth,lefty Mobys.
He/She/It has been pretending to be conservative for years and invariably posts a mocking or contrarian comment to get attention ,a reaction or self entertainment.
Note the tagline-it’s intended as a derisive, mocking comment on the social conservatism of most FR commenters ,including the site’s owner.
It’s astonishing that the Mods here have let this parasite continue to post here year after year.
Thank you.
17 days after notification for a violent themed page like that seems a bit of a stretch.
Would an illegal porn trading page last that long?
I thought they had filters up that kept that from happening?
I thought they had filters up that kept that from happening?can anyone get a Kill O page up?
The sheer volume of posts must drive them crazy. All sorts of stuff gets on.
