Petition facebook to remove material that promotes rape culture

Given that making light of sexual violence was the problem in the first place this is simply unacceptable. It is clear that pages for racist jokes are not tolerated in the same way-

Please continue to sign and share. I am aware that this petition has been running for a while and that there are other similar petitions. I intend to contact the authors and hopefully synchronise delivery to facebook.

Many thanks.
