1,000,000 for Hillary Clinton to get beheaded

http://www.facebook.com/pages/1000000-for-Hillary-Clinton-to-get-beheaded/150804687806?ref=search&sid=1464070082.3509732271..1



I have reported this. If you have a Facebook membership, please report this awful site. I can not believe this kind of vitriol is allowed to stand on Facebook.

[CatWoman]

1. I just reported this as well.

[Kerrytravelers]

3. Thank you, dear. I can't understand how this stuff is allowed to even be posted.

And if I saw something equal in regards to Bush or any of his cabal, I'd report that, as I know you would, too. This kind of nonsense has to stop.

[hypocrisyandlies]

23. +1

I reported a picture the other day that had a cartoon of Sarah Palin with a gun to her head. It isn't OK regardless of who it is. If we learn anything from the way Republicans are acting lately its that you shouldn't hate like this.

[Kerrytravelers]

25. Good for you. That kind of stuff needs to stop, be it on Facebook or any other site.

[hypocrisyandlies]

34. Just went to check

and the picture is still there. Here is the link if anyone else would like to report it:

2. It sure as shit does..any

assoles who threaten Hillary, Obama, or anyone.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

4. The GOP pigs that set this up need to be thrown into a dungeon with monitor lizards...

and the key thrown in the ocean

[Parker CA]

5. Reported. Incredibly offensive crap. nt.

[and-justice-for-all]

6. Reported!

[hyphenate]

7. Reported as well

However, for future info, it is also important that it be mentioned that it's advocating violence on Hillary, NOT as SoS, but as a former first lady.

As a former first lady, Hillary is a recipient of Secret Service protection, and as such, a threat is non-protected speech. As SoS, she wouldn't be receiving the SS protection otherwise AFAIK.



Edited to add: forget what I said--the SoS is also entitled to SS protection.

[Liquorice]

9. They protect the SoS too. nt

[arcadian]

14. There are a couple of foreign embassies in DC that get SS protection too.

Through some special deal. Turkey is one of them. I don't know why DSS at State doesn't cover that. It's weird. You always see SS buzzing up and down Mass Ave.

[arcadian]

8. They have a million members?

That's going to be hard on the Secret Service. Or Bureau of Diplomatic Security.

[hyphenate]

11. Naw--

I checked. 3 current members.

FWIW, there is another group at Facebook which was to keep HC from getting elected as president (obviously before the election), and they had 773,000 members.

[arcadian]

12. I just checked it out too.

Looks like the members are a high school kid and a Junior high school kid and somebody else.

[Kerrytravelers]

17. Three dorks who seem to join everything they see, as evidenced by their "fan" listings.

:eyes:

[Ken Burch]

10. Holy Crap!

[Lost-in-FL]

13. done. nt

[usregimechange]

15. Reported

[newtothegame]

16. We probably oughtta report these then...

http://www.pictogame.com/en/play/game/aOM6TtpFCKHE_kill-bush
http://www.freeworldgroup.com/games/bushshootout/index2.htm

And on and on and on...this is the internet people, while we're busy running around desperately searching for things that offend us, the Repukes actually advance their agenda.

[Kerrytravelers]

18. I'm not particularly fond of the characterization that I desperately search for ways to be offended.

That suggestion comes across as condescending, even if that was not the intent. The reporting was directly to Facebook.

I wanted to add Hillary Clinton to my Facebook interests. I found this, which I found to be particularly offensive because it suggested beheading her. Yes, only three dorky kids are members, but it is still vile. Why let it gather more members? :shrug:

I'm not sure how clicking the report button, selecting "offensive content" and writing "Advocating violence against a public official" is somehow taking away valuable time from advancing agendas. :shrug: I didn't plan on doing some serious advocacy work at 8:30 PM on a Monday night. I was just messing around on my laptop, watching a movie and drinking some green tea when I saw that three dorks want to behead Hillary Clinton.

And in regards to the two links, if I belonged to those websites, I would have reported them to the webmaster/owner/etc. as inappropriate.

[newtothegame]

46. Fair enough, and I apologize for singling you out.

My point was not aimed at your efforts, but the efforts of many who do indeed spend more time demanding apologies for "offenses" than moving forward any agenda.

[Kerrytravelers]

47. Ok. Got it. Sorry that I misread your intentions!

:hi:

I see your point, too. Distractions that lead to nowhere are a tremendous waste of time.

[demodonkey]

19. Done. nt

[tosh]

20. Done. K&R and thanks!

[A HERETIC I AM]

21. Whatever you do, don't mention the regular suggestions on DU for beheadings of various people for

various reasons.
According to some on this board,

Beheading a Secretary of State = bad


Beheading a head of a corporation = not so bad at all, really

[Kerrytravelers]

22. Please alert if you see something that breaks the rules on DU.

It is the only way to be sure the Moderators see the post in question.

Thanks,
kt

[A HERETIC I AM]

24. With all due respect.....

Just peruse any economics, corporate or business related thread.

It won't take you long to find such posts.

[Kerrytravelers]

27. Please alert. The Moderators do not read each thread and post on DU.

There are thousands each day. It is impossible. Therefore, we have an alert system in place. If you feel something is breaking the DU rules, please alert. Once the alert is visible in the Mod Forum, we then, as a group, come to consensus as to whether the post in question breaks a DU rule and take action as necessary. Expecting us to read each post in each thread is unrealistic. I can't stress enough the importance of alerting.

[A HERETIC I AM]

35. I'm well aware of the volume of posts put up each day on this board.

I also understand the the moderators have a daunting task of policing the activities of the tens of thousands of regular posters on DU.

But quite frankly, it takes an awful lot for me to alert on a thread or post. I've alerted on repeated and blatantly insulting, abusive and belligerent posters but only after it is clear to me that a pattern has emerged with a particular individual and that pattern represents something harmful or belittling of the membership as a whole.

However, there is a large block of people on this board that have made it very clear, over and over again that they would like nothing better than to see gallows set up at the corner of Wall and Broad streets and anyone appearing in the neighborhood wearing a suit and tie be strung up tout de suite.

Alerting on scores of DU'rs isn't really my style. I'm not a moderator or the message board police. I'll stick with alerting on the ones that insult large blocks of their fellow posters.

[Kerrytravelers]

36. Ok, that is your option whether or not to alert.

Just understand that we won't necessarily see the posts you are loosely referencing in your post upthread. :hi:

[Stephanie]

29. Perhaps you could link to some of those to prove your point.

I'll wait.

[A HERETIC I AM]

38. You've been around here since the beginning. You know how to search. (edited)

If you spend as much time on DU as I bet you do, you know I am correct.

Go ahead and find them yourself.

I'll wait.


On edit to say...ahhh...what the hell.

It was too damned easy. All it took was 30 seconds in the "Economy" forum to find an entire thread basically dedicated to the idea.


Hint: It is a thread wherein the OP links an article published on 12/8 about an incident in China that happened 4 years ago.

[Stephanie]

41. Perfect

Make a wild assertion and then challenge ME to prove you right. Nice try.

[A HERETIC I AM]

42. Check my post again for the edit.

Go have a look in the Economy forum.

There's no "wild assertion" by any means. It happens almost every day, for fucks sake.

Look at the next few threads you see that talk about the Banking industry or any major corporation.

Look at the daily "Stock Market Watch" thread
Look in the "Latest Breaking News" forum at any thread having to do with business malfeasance.
Look at any thread in GD about the Banking industry, the Financial industry or capitalism in general.

It won't take you long to find exactly what I'm talking about.

You've been a member of this board since 2001 and you have over 33,000 posts. Unless the majority of those have been "LOL's" in the Lounge and you spend all your time there, or you only read puppy and kitty threads, you KNOW I'm right.


If you haven't seen what I'm talking about, you haven't been paying attention.

[Stephanie]

26. How do you report it? nt

[Stephanie]

28. Never mind, I found it. nt

[Kerrytravelers]

30. I'll reply in case someone else doesn't know.

Along the bottom of each post, there is a link on the far left side which says "alert." When you click it, you will be redirected to a page that has a space to write the reason for the alert.

We really encourage everyone to use the alert system, as that is the only way to be sure the Moderators see the post in question.

[Stephanie]

32. I meant on Facebook, tho

Where the "Report" button can be found on the bottom left. :hi:

[Kerrytravelers]

39. Ah! You are correct! The FB alert is in the same location.

:hi:

[highplainsdem]

31. Reported. K&R. Thanks for alerting us to that page.

[OhioChick]

33. Wrong on so many levels. K&R n/t

[Maru Kitteh]

40. Reported - it's a kid. His other group is called Adults only say 'don't backchat' when they are

"Adults only say 'don't backchat' when they are losing the arguement."



He almost spelled it correctly too. What talent. Nice kid. Ugh.
