If now you take away freedom of speech, then WHAT remains for us?

This is HYPOCRISY OF THE HIGHEST ORDER that when i went on to create a page that was dedicated to Adolf Hitler just to piss off those guys who were drawing the pictures of my Beloved prophet,i was BANNED within hours.
You have also read the complaints section of facebook ?
It states and i repeat *Do you wish to ban this page because it smacks of racism and taunts a group of people*
We ARE SIMPLY DOING WHAT FACEBOOK WROTE ON ITS GUIDELINES

Man, in FB, there are THOUSANDS of groups like that. What is more, there are millions of fan supporting those sites.
Just look at this. This group is protesting against Israel. There are 18 people supporting it. It doesn't get banned. I'm sure the israelis reading this group must've reported it.

There are THOUSANDS of religious groups, just as there are thousands of anti-religious groups. This is just freedom of speech. And someone must've reported the page you created and it must've got attention of a moderator of FB.

I NEVER said that one's speech should be controlled - I stated that YOU, the person who says things, should practice more caution in what you say.

Hey, the road is also a 'free' place. We cannot prevent people from manifesting from there. So, well, let's ban all the roads.
Come on, Facebook is a road too, where the laymen voices out his opinion. Where's the problem if it's virtual?

I'm not advocating that FB should be banned. Wrong supposition! :P
