A disturbing investigation by Fox News reveals that the North American Man-Boy Love Association--a child molesting group that teaches predators how to lure children, avoid the police and more--has set up shop on Facebook.
Facebook claims to have a strict, zero-tolerance policy against enabling child pornography or exploitation, but as the investigation reveals, there are dozens of Facebook pages--many with pictures of pre-Kindergarten children--currently up on the networking site.
Incidentally, since the ACLU rushed in with an army of free attorneys to defend NAMBLA and it's "Rape and Escape" manual when they got a small boy raped and killed in Massachusetts, I would expect the "civil liberties" group to be equally offended if anyone tries to get them removed from Facebook.

You've got your facts wrong about the Massachusetts case. The issue at stake was whether an entire group can be held responsible for what individual people do.
This crime was atrocious, but the fact is that whatever you think of NAMBLA, they didn't advocate abduction or murder, and their materials were not illegal. If the government can hold NAMBLA responsible for the crimes committed by two people with a passing association, they could do it to any group with a few wingnuts: churches, the NRA, political parties, publishers of websites, etc.
The facts of the case are here:
