Facebook starts ‘paedophile’ page purge

FACEBOOK began removing pages that referred to the North American Man/Boy Love Association following a report that revealed the nefarious paedophile advocacy group’s presence on the popular social networking site.

FOXNews.com reported that pages scrubbed from Facebook include:

- The Greensburg group of the North American Man/Boy Love Association, whose page featured a pic of a young child;

- “NAMBLA” in the “Organizations-Advocacy Organizations” category, which featured a pic of a man being kissed on the cheek by a small child. Its description read: “We are the North American Man/Boy Love Association. Our sole purpose is to push forward the concept that a consenting man (18+) and a consenting minor (-18) can have a sexual and loving relationship legally. Feel free to send your questions comments or constructive criticism to (redacted e-mail address). Thank you for your time and support and remember keep fighting the good fight!”

FOXNews.com alerted Facebook to the existence of those pages on September 23 during its investigation of the group’s presence on the website.

An exclusive article published by FOXNews.com revealed that NAMBLA, the world’s largest paedophile advocacy group, was using Facebook to connect with other like-minded individuals, share pics and find new victims.

Despite Facebook’s policy against the posting of content that supports groups engaged in child exploitation, FOXNews.com easily found dozens of pages proudly proclaiming an affiliation with the North American Man/Boy Love Association.

Many of those pages featured numerous pics of unnamed boys, who appeared to be around four years old.

“Gay Kids,” a Facebook page mentioned on the notorious paedophile blog Boy Chat, remained active with 588 members yesterday.

And the Facebook profile of a former child actor mentioned on Boy Chat also remained active.

Following the publication of FOXNews.com’s report on Tuesday, NAMBLA spokesman Arnold Schoen replied to a six-day-old email request for comment.

“If you really investigated,” Mr Schoen wrote, “you would learn that actually we have never set up any pages on Facebook.”

“And we certainly have not ever used Facebook to connect with our members, to find or exchange photos, to ‘hone predatory behavior’, or to ‘identify, target and reel in child victims.’

“This is a wild fantasy boogeyman FoxNews is holding up for their fans.”

Facebook did not return an email request for comment, but members of the paedophile blog “Boy Chat” were freely discussing Tuesday’s report.
