REMOVED!!! Well, at least it says "this profile is currently not available". I will however, try again later or tomorrow just in case. Sometimes, profiles become unavailable for no reason and then come back alive!0 -

Nope it's still there
What are you all putting in the reasons for reporting? The groups which are encouraging violence against cyclists are easy enough - but what about the plain "we hate cyclists" ones? They could always turn round and just say, we don't remove groups just because you disagree with them.0 -

If they've encouraged or bragged about violence then thats cause enough. But if as you say they're just saying "grrrr they annoy me" then no one can really argue about that.0 -

Yes, it's still there. But, one difference that I noted iss that now, they don't have administrators. And, also, it seems to have lost most of its members (only 16 now) and it was hijacked by other cyclists! Lets keep reporting it, though.
As to which groups to report, only the ones that advocate direct violence towards cyclists, like the Intolerance for Cyclists Society. Their info calls for people to push cyclists off their bikes and hurt them.
When you report a group, there is a notice from Facebook saying 2 things: one, the report is confidential and two, they don't remove groups just because you disagree with them.
The ones we are trying to get shut down are a direct call for violence, either in their title or their info.0 -

Its gone now!
I will say this, lets not limit this to just dangerous anticyclist groups. I will often report/flag things I find unacceptable on youtube (I dont mean sex or violence but stuff that seems to show all kinds of abuses).
This one's back too - have reported it as a hate speech as it doesn't actually suggest violence.0 -
