I wasn't aware that they were taking them down. I know they took down some of the more egregious ones, but I also noticed that a lot of them were left up. Perhaps they're left up if no one hits the abuse button, which also tells me something. I know that I hit the abuse button a couple of times last week on a couple of really egregious photos, and they were promptly removed. I'm sure the moderators have their hands full. I haven't really lurked and posted much the past few days because of the tone of things around here.
You could be right. Maybe it would help if a few more people tried it on this thread: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1376775/posts
what an insult to those who actually died at the hands of the Nazis in death camps
To say the least. And that's exactly what happened on the above link. An extremely polite poster who lost family members in the concentration camps objected to the images. I don't know if he/she reported abuse or not, but have pinged him to this post.
