The FB page along with the quote is still up and I somewhat doubt the account was ever really taken down. All we have is Mike Adam’s word for it and considering the source, that doesn’t count for very much in my book.

This historical quote was apparently too much for Facebook's censors to bear. They suspended our account and gave us a "final warning" that one more violation of their so-called "community guidelines" would result in our account being permanently deactivated.

They then demanded we send them a color copy of a "government issued identification" in order to reactivate our account. Our account was removed from suspension just minutes before InfoWars posted its article on this Facebook censorship, and the Facebook page is now functioning at:

www.Facebook.com/NaturalNews

Really? FB asked for a “color copy of a "government issued identification"”? ? ? And so what did you provide Mike? A color copy of your driver’s license? Your discharge papers from the looney bin?

Mike Adams, while he gets a few things right, very few things BTW, blind squirrel syndrome and all, is mostly a paranoid conspiracy theory, 9-11 truther, anti-science, pseudo scientific, anti-business, anti-military, granola crunching nut case who is more interested in selling and promoting sham natural health products via his website (and if FB took him down for a time, perhaps this is why).

For a good example of the types of incoherent bat guano screeds posted at Natural News consider this:

I have lots of friends on FB who have posted pro-second amendment posts and quotes including the Gandhi (which BTW, I don’t consider all that good of a quote for supporting the 2nd) and a lot of pro 2nd more pointed and more strident and I have posted pro-second amendment comments on my FB with no problems.

But crying censorship even when there apparently wasn’t any, is a good way of getting more hits to his FB page and website (blog page). After all: all publicity, even bad publicity is good publicity. Of all the things that can be said of Mike Adams, no one can’t say he isn’t good at self promotion.

You may want to tell your FB friends that they may want to reconsider posting any Gandhi “quotes”.

Early on Gandhi was dubbed a ‘mortal demi-god’­and he has been regarded that way ever since. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703529004576160371482469358.html
