One of my friends shared a picture of the massacre in Boko Haram. Hundreds of charred dead bodies. I reported it and Facebook think it's fine and dandy and does violate their standards.
FFS.

Depends on the context. Does anyone remember last year a couple died falling off a balcony while having sex? There was a picture of them lying dead being circulated for a laugh on fb, it really upset me.

I had autopsy pictures from the infamous range rover shootings pop up on mine once.

Again, FB let it stand. I did block the person who had posted them though.

I saw the picture of the dead African child too. It has haunted me since. I immediately de friended the person who posted it but the damage was done. Facebook has a lot to answer for Hmm
