a certain Facebook fan page

Recommended Posts

If you're on Facebook, please do me and every other sex trade worker a favour by reporting it to Facebook so they'll remove it.

It is disgusting and the fact that they have over 17,000 group members is even more disgusting. So I call all of you, my friends and colleagues, to complain en masse to Facebook to get this shit taken down.

 

WOW! No words for how wrong that is good for you Erin for bringing this to every ones attention count me in as someone who has already complained to facebook I am sure there will be many more.

I would pull the plug on facebook, period.

What is its redeeming social value ???

wow, even though i read and hear a lot of stupid, crazy, disgusting stuff, this is beyond what should ever be printed or seen . Too many people think doing something like this is just a harmless joke and funny. But as we know, there are very weak-minded people who are very impressionable. the individual who posted this should be immediately removed from facebook. Mod would never allow this type of behaviour. This is horrible and disgusting and repulsive, and i hope something will be done. :-x:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I cannot see this facebook page being posted for very much longer, it is disturbing that it got posted in the first place.

 

Reported by me as well.

 

What do you do when you see an offensive Facebook event?

 

You can anonymously "report" any event as offensive. There is a button at the bottom-left of the event profile that will allow you to submit your complaint. Facebook will keep an eye on these reports and take down events that we deem inappropriate

http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=13058

 

With reviews like this one and additional complaints, it will be taken down. Aptly so

 

"FYI -- here's the note I just wrote to the directors of Facebook.

Dear Facebook directors,

I am writing to report a page dedicated to "killing your hooker so you don't have to pay her." This form of hate speech (encouraging murder, and the murder of women by men) is outrageous and I cannot imagine it would never be allowed (or seen as a joke) if it was targeting any other occupational or demographic group. (kill your mom so you don't have to do your chores; kill your wife so you don't have to pay her credit card bills; kill your landlord so you don't have to pay the rent; kill your child so you don't have to feed him; kill the president so you don't have to pay your taxes. etc. etc. etc.) One of the links on the page, just posted today, appears to celebrate that a prostitute as recently murdered in Amsterdam's red light district. I have looked at your code of conduct and I believe that this page is very clearly violating your principle of protecting other people's rights. PLEASE delete this page ASAP.

 

Sincerely, Kari Lerum, Ph.D. sociology, University of Washington, Bothell

Reported....

 

The sad thing about Facebook is that it's a "social networking program"...

 

In my own opinion, having X amount of facebook friends DOES NOT make you social, unless you actually meet them once in awhile...

 

We're becoming a society of hermits and loners... and people look at us funny for what what our job is, if anything we're the solution to the problem, as we build mental and physical relationships with anyone.... IN PERSON!

 

.End Rant.

I just don't understand why people do this stuff. People have too much time on their hands. Now to go work on my Facebook farms and feed my fish.

Some "social networking" is just not acceptable. I wonder if Facebook shouldn't go farther and suspend (at least temporarily) the users/losers that signed on to this group as fans.

If look, most of the fans are younger people. They probably look at this like it's a joke without realizing the ramifications behind it.

 

I have reported it as well and have asked my friends to do the same.

 

Good work, Erin.

Reported.

 

At first I thought this was based off of a certain phenomenon in a certain video game series. But after looking into the comments posted on the website, I've found that it really is just a cesspool of disgusting people supporting murder.

 

I can't believe there are so many members...and also why hasn't facebook removed this page yet!?

Honestly, when my lover sent me the link, my mouth dropped open and for about 10 minutes I just sat there swearing. I was/am so disgusted. It only makes me that much more vehement about sex worker rights and doing what I can to get opponents and haters to see that we are PEOPLE. We are not trash that you can throw away and pretend doesn't exist anymore.

Probably because SP's just don't count in many peoples minds. You can bet if the Facebook group had been directed towards a minority group or celebrity etc it would have been dealt with long ago.

Thanks for the head's up. I have no word strong enough to say how disgusted I am. FB is going down the drain with this crap.
