Tell Facebook to Ban "Burn a Koran Day" Page

The Issue

The Dove World Outreach Center, a Christian Church based in Florida, has designated 9/11 "International Burn a Koran Day," and is using a Facebook fan page to spread its hate.

This is a deeply offensive misuse of the 9/11 tragedy, and it violates Facebook's own terms of use, which ban content that is "hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence."

Tell Facebook to enforce their policy and remove this page from its site immediately.
