Facebook yanks accounts of drug war critics

With Free Republic a mere skeleton of its former self, Facebook is probably where you want to go if you actually want to see people supporting the expansion of the massive failure known as the War on Drugs.

Earlier this year, Facebook quite rightly removed a drug warrior fan site because of its inflammatory, racist content. But now the right-wing nanny staters seem to have gotten to Facebook - as Facebook has begun revoking the accounts of users who dare to argue with the drug warriors.

One of the people on my friends list lost her Facebook account this morning just for disagreeing with the tyrants.

Facebook tolerates a group that supports President Obama's death, but they kick people off if they disagree with the War on Drugs?

I doubt a Facebook boycott has much realistic chance of happening, but if this keeps up, it's going to have to.

In the meantime, I plan to counter each extreme-right drug war fan site on Facebook with a dissenting site.
