This pandering to the minority in this country is getting too much.
If they are that offended by what people wear tough!

You still banging this drum?
When did Facebook groups become an appropriate indicator of the truth?
How about the Facebook group that's against Facebook charging for access (categorically not true)? How about the Facebook group campaigning against the BBC cancelling Top Gear (categorically not true)? How about the Facebook group that convinced a number of people that there was a virus running rampant on Facebook and gave instructions for deleting an application from your applications list (the application was actually only being shown due to a code bug in a recent change and was NECESSARY to enable you to be able to see your friends list properly, so categorically not true)?
The problem with Facebook groups like that is that they're normally started either by someone that's got so little in their life to hold on to that brings them joy that they feel the need to attract attention in order to feel important, or they're started by idiots that see a story and immediately start spouting about how 'outraged' they are before they've even checked the facts.
In the end all they succeeding in doing is convincing other idiots (who are similarly unable to tell truth from fiction, and similarly idiotic enough not to check the facts of something before screaming and shouting about a loss of their liberties) that they need to join the group and spread the word.
Pathetic.
