Thread:Comments:Facebook takes down groups supporting Austin crash pilot/What part of Facebook's TOS did the removal fall under?/reply (4)

The only guidelines they really need to pay attention to is how the users feel. This seems like something that whips Facebook users into a whiny frenzy. Expect cries of "free speech". Yeah, anyway, Facebook can do whatever it wants... sort of. I just realized that if they deleted groups pertaining to gay rights they might lose a rather hefty lawsuit. So yes, Facebook has the right to do whatever they want on their site, except sometimes that it infringes upon other rights.

So no, they simultaneously don't have the right to do this. The proof lies with whomever wins the biggest lawsuits. I LOVE DEMOCRA - I MEAN LOBBYCRACY
