Should we not be making an example here? Especially with all the talk of 
using friendi.ca, distroot and all these other FLOSS, freedom and common 
sense reflecting choices that one might expect from a Linux User Group?

I try not to judge and be pragmatic about these things but I've reached 
the limits of my tolerance here - seriously, Facebook? Really? Surely 
this is sending mixed messages at absolute best...

Staying pragmatic, it's obviously useless and completely unvisited 
anyway. Do we really want people associating the LUG in any way with 
shit like Facebook?

I say kill it with fire. As per usual this is only my (worthless, 
individual) opinion of course, please feel free to disagree or ignore me.

But I think however being associated in any way with Facebook doesn't 
just provide no value to the LUG, it actively creates negative value by 
dint of association.
