We Want Facebook To Screen All Groups & Pages To Stop Racism & Racial Hatred On It's Website 

I originally created a group to stop Religious hatred groups towards Islam & ALLAH (SWT). There was one group that was Called 'Allah Is a P****'
i have been contacting facebook and various other sources to get this original group removed along with the fake profiles. NO action was taken until recently when the original group was finally removed after over a month of reporting by more than 32000 people on facebook. However this does not solve the problem as facebook  allow more and more groups to be created. The only way of stopping this is by getting facebook to start a screening process where all groups and pages will be reviewed before being made available to all users. This is on the condition of that all requirements are met which facebook stated on their rules and regulations. 

Facebook has rules and regulations which I have looked into concerning these groups. If they have set out rules surely they should comply with these. Firstly when you create such groups it says underneath the form:  

Note: groups that attack a specific person or group of people (e.g. racist, sexist or other hate groups) will not be tolerated. Creating such a group will result in the immediate termination of your Facebook account.

Under section 3 of Facebook’s statement of rights and responsibilities it says:

You will not bully, intimidate, or harass any user.
You will not post content that is hateful, threatening, pornographic, or that contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.

Facebook need to play their part in looking after their users by implementing the following three options:

1. I want Facebook to remove all racist and religious hatred groups off their website. They have a reporting system which has to be monitored more often and appropriate action should be taken.

2. All fake profiles should be deleted when reported.

3. Finally main point is that Facebook should set up a screening system where all groups created should be screened to make sure it complies with the rules Facebook laid out before being made available to users to see.

You can find my original group aganst the one i fought to remove:

The new group Relevant to this is:

Keep seeing these pages everywhere. They break the rules clearly stated but nothing happens. Totally unacceptable.

Too much hate speech going unchecked. They have the money to pay people to monitor this stuff stop letting it slide.

Finally someone said it. The hate groups are getting out of control and reporting them does nothing.

FB rly needs to step up. Every time I report something it takes weeks for them to do anything at all. Disgraceful.

Its honestly shameful what people get away with posting on here. Facebook needs to actually do their job and monitor this garbage.
