    Generally that’s still true. No one is being persecuted by the government over this. But Facebook is not the government, and is within their rights to remove objectionable or distasteful material.

      Oh yes, it is within their rights to delete or allow such content. I just don’t understand why people are upset about this, as this is not the first case, this is happening.
