Facebook bans hate based social group



Some school kids in the Isle of Man had set up a hate group named Ku Klux Klan which tried to motivate its members to cleanse the island of ‘newcomers’.

With about 100 members subscribed, the group started gaining popularity which threatened the peace of the Isle of Man. Some of wordings of the group creator are as follow:

There are too many comovers (sic) [non-British] on the Island. They are taking all of the jobs, houses and most of all they are taking advantage of our ****ing Island. …. join us and help clense (sic) the Isle of Man.

Students at all six secondary schools on the island – including the public King William’s College – had joined.

One of the forty messages which were posted on the wall of the group is:

Damn blacks and indians (sic), coming over here taking our jobs – who the **** do they think they are?
