Have you ever scrolled down your news feed on Facebook and noticed and video that shows two or more individuals in a violent dispute? A helpless individual that is being bullied or humiliated? I personally have seen this countless times on my news feed being shared by friends or from other sources. Why? Because in today's time people find humor in seeing people injured or humiliated over a boy, money, drugs, ect. Are you tired of seeing this kind of content? For some reason the higher up's that run Facebook seem to think this type of content is okay and does not go against thier community standards. As they would say "We understand that it may still be offensive or distasteful to you, so we want to help you see less of things like it in the future. From the list above you can block said users account directly, or you may be able to unfriend or unfiollow them." Yes it is offensive and distasteful actually but, will blocking said users/videos from our feed make the vidoes disappear? Will they eliminate the embarrassment of the persons involved while people from all over the world see them being harmed or even in some cases "had it coming"? Regardless of the nature or reasoning behind the acts I personally do not think content like this should be allowed on Facebook at all! Violence has become a natural part of our world but if people can come together by signing this petition and forcing Facebook to remove harmful videos/posts of this nature we can at least eliminate this tiny fraction. So please take one minute out of your busy day to sign this petition and help stop the spread of violence on Facebook! Will it end violence? Not even by a long shot but every little thing helps!

We the undersigned, call on Facebook to eliminate posts depicting violence of any nature and demand action!
