Ok, so first off, this isn't a dig at any Australian members of bfp.

A wee while ago a mate posted on fb about an anti-Aborigine page and how to make complaints about it because it promotes hate and racism. As far as I'm aware, the page is up again and fb isn't going to do anything about it:

Please take the time to check it out if you're on fb and make a complaint. I'm loath to post a picture from the page but

Please take the time to make a complaint.

Hi Nomad and Abigail, thank's for responding. It is pretty disgusting. I didn't want to post too many images from the page because they're just so sickening.

Reported. I am constantly disgusted by the content Facebook chooses to display and delete. For example, this hateful page was kept up, yet a friend of mine who wrote a long, and awesome speech about the fact that "rape is rape" had his content deleted because apparently it was "offensive". WTF??

Racism is darker than any skin color on this planet.
