Facebook: This doesn't violate our community standards

Yes, Facebook really decided that this didn't violate their 'community standards.'

“Thank you for taking the time to report something that you feel may violate our Community Standards. Reports like yours are an important part of making Facebook a safe and welcoming environment. We reviewed the Page you reported for containing graphic violence and found it doesn't violate our Community Standards.”

The following are reasons why a page would be removed:

Facebook removes hate speech, which includes content that directly attacks people based on their:

Race,
Ethnicity,
National origin,
Religious affiliation,
Sexual orientation,
Sex, gender, or gender identity, or
Serious disabilities or diseases.

Organizations and people dedicated to promoting hatred against these protected groups are not allowed a presence on Facebook. As with all of our standards, we rely on our community to report this content to us.

I wonder what would happen if we posted a 'Death to Islamic Terrorists' page.

You can find a petition against the 'Death to Israel' page here.
