Stop shutting down animal activist pages & groups

The Issue

Many animal activists use Facebook to get messages across from everything regarding pets up for adoption to issues affecting wildlife. However, Facebook has been putting the squeeze on such people by pandering to criminals such as animal abusers and greedy special interests (i.e. ranching, hunting and trapping supporters). In doing so, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is squelching our First Amendment rights to share our worthy causes on such a widely used site while the aforementioned criminals and special interests are free to exercise their rights that they don't even deserve to have. We demand that Mark either respect our First Amendment rights, or resign as CEO of Facebook.
