what are they thinking?

no, not facebook. they took the 'poll' down as soon as they were aware of it. they can't ban certain words - killing for example. what if you wanted to start a 'my feet are killing me' page (i'm just making a point about a word that can be evil and not evil)

i hope the secret service ROCKS this person's world so to speak

Obama Assassination Poll Rocks Facebook

by Adam Ostrow
Politics and social media can sometimes be an explosive combination. But now, a poll posted to Facebook through a third-party application has gone so far as to draw the attention of the US Secret Service.The poll, which has since been pulled, asked the question: “Should Obama be killed?” and offered users four multiple choice answers. According to Talking Points Memo, who obtained a screenshot of the poll, more than 750 users voted in the poll before it was pulled by Facebook.
