Stop Allowing Animal Abuse on Facebook

The Issue

Facebook has a long history of allowing people to post images of animal abuse. By allowing these images to remain on their pages, they are basically condoning it. 

There are many ways to report an abusive image, but there should be a clear, concise, and easy way to quickly take action. 

We have reported pages that hosted graphic animal abuse images. Often, complaints are dismissed, regardless the severity of the abuse portrayed on the page. According to Facebook, "Community Standards" were not violated. 

If images of animal abuse don't violate Facebook's Community Standards, we urge Facebook to re-write their standards. 

And, we petition Facebook to develop a way for users to quickly and easily report abuse.
