From Change.Org Petition:
Nick Catone lost his 20-month old son, Nicholas, in May of 2017. Since that time – he has used Facebook as a means to keep his son’s memory alive through daily pictures and journaling.
Facebook, while allowing the accounts of pedophiles to stay up – has cruelly and unfairly terminated Nick’s personal account without warning and denied Nick’s appeal to reinstate.
Consequently, Nick lost all of his memories and pictures he had of his son on that page.
This is a gross violation of freedom of speech as well as causing further suffering to a grieving parent.
We petition Facebook to reverse their decision, reinstate Nick Catone’s personal account and apologize for the suffering they have caused.
With all the other bs that “do not go against their community standards” that is a chicken shit move by FB.
Absolutely 🙁
William Freer Exactly. How about shutting down the idiots who talk about politics over and over and over. ????????♀️. They are the most disturbing
Thank you for sharing.

So who complained?? Will we ever know?
They will not tell him
Ocean County Scanner News ????
FB shut him down for telling the truth about vaccines. Same as RUOC page was shut down.
It’s not okay that all of the pictures of his son that were on his page, are now gone.
He has no way to access them.
Exactly I agree – Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
Sharon Lynn Huber what’s the truth about vaccines?
William Boyer Jr. Do your own research.
William Boyer Jr. That they effect kids differently and sometimes that results in death, specifically in this case. That’s why we as parents deserve to decide medically what is best for our child(ren) based on our instincts as their parents.
The REAL truth about vaccines. Not propaganda BS

Joyce Ann from what I’ve gathered from comments, he spreads a lot of anti-vaccination propaganda
It’s not propaganda, Nick advocates for Vaccine Injury awareness. Please do not call his stance propaganda, do some research yourself, I’d start with the Over 4.0 billion dollars paid out already by the Vaccine Injury Compensation program.
there was a man who’s FB was shut down because his 2 year old died because of vaccines.
Michelle Griggs
The Catone family is an amazing strong family and absolutely do not deserve to go through this!! They have opened my eyes to so many different things and I’m forever grateful for the awareness they are raising ???? To lose a child, but to have the strength to face it everyday JUST to raise awareness and get the justice they absolutely deserve is extremely commendable ????
Perfectly said Lindsay.Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!

Desiree Rochelle they are a beautiful family – such wonderful people
Facebook has also been shutting down personal accounts if they go against the Lakewood regime
Rachel Faith Goncalves
1st amendment alive and well on Facebook. Fucking bullshit. Whether you agree with his views or not.
Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
Whether you agree or disagree with his stance on vaccines , He has the right to voice his opinion on the matter. If you don’t like it , don’t follow his page. He should have the right to advocate and honor his deceased son the way he feels fit to.
Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
Exactly! I was friends with him on FB and I’m pro vaccine but that never stopped me from liking all the beautiful pics of his son. Horrible what FB is doing.
Vicki Tartas exactly. This should concern everyone whether you are for or against vaccs
If you don’t fall in line with the liberal agenda this is what will happen. The agenda is doing its best to censor and hide the truth so they can push those products that big pharma pay them to. This is big bs. Nothing in this world is 100% safe. You won’t stop us from telling the truth!!!!!
Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
All the photos and material he posted are not maintained on his PC? Hard drive back up! If FB doesn’t release them back and destroy all copies…TIME TO LITIGATE!
It is not just the photos it is all the posts. He posted daily since the death of their son about memories, thoughts etc.
Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
Ocean County Scanner News it really is mind-boggling as to what’s allowed/prohibited on the web. It seems that in more than a few instances, those who break the law and are a clear and present danger to people/children are afforded a protection that a lot of folks can’t seem to accept…it’s awful what they did to him, and what they continue to allow is just nonsense!
Keith Childers I couldn’t agree more
Ocean County Scanner News I do have to say, I start, maintain, and usually end my day with your page right up front! Keep up all the great work. If it were needed..I would gladly offer my services to work or be a contributor…not sure how that would work but I find this page to be top notch!
Keith Childers LAWS used to be made for the criminal….seems almost as if that is disappearing and they are being twisted.
Keith Childers Message our page – OCSN04
Ocean County Scanner News do I search OCSNO4 specifically?
That’s awful
Mewe.com
Fb sucks..but he is a bit of a nasty guy in business
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi thst has ZERO to do with this issue.
Jennifer Bosco maybe hes just as nasty on his personal page
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi get a new hobby. This is about cencorship. And his rights being violated. Just save yourself the trouble and stfu. Moron.
Jennifer Bosco we dont have rights..ask rise up Ocean County
Jennifer Bosco you’re as nasty as him
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi zero personality hardly ever talks.
John E Baumgartner guess he talked some shit on Fb
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi I’m no fan of his. He got on Facebook saying I ripped him off. Horrible his son died
John E Baumgartner I know.. terrible
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi you’re as irrelevant as your stupid comment.
Censorship at its finest

Let’s shut down a page of a father telling the story of his own child but leave up the child pornography groups and let the pictures of abused children and animals float around. Nice priorities FB, not.
Exactly, it’s despicable – Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
FB likes to shut down and silence a lot of people. If it doesn’t fit with their agenda, it some how disappears. Just like a very well known, informative page that got taken down, especially with the helping of some paid of government officials. Don’t get me started….. (too late).
Roberta Staples Cartwright amen!
Thank you so much for sharing this! It’s absolutely heartless. He shared daily messages and videos of his son. He did nothing wrong. You have to ask yourself why they want to keep people from reading the truth.
Bingo! and you are most welcome, we will stick with this story – Please share story and Change.org petition. Let’s get the word out. Whether people agree or not with his opinion – FB trying to silence him is not ok!
Unbelievable
Holy fucking shit. First RUOC, now Catone. This is out of control…
Donielle Janeen isnt this what someone on the thread was talking about? Was it you?
Heather S. Migliorato-Petri yes its crazy he lost all of his memories, pictures, videos for what? He didn’t violate anything. There are child porn groups up and running and they won’t shut those down. I reported one the other day along with hundreds of other people and its still up.
how does this get righted// THIS IS JUST wrong.
Unbelievable
Freedom of speech is only free if Zuckerberg agrees with it ????
I signed the petition the other day. Nice to see Facebook has their priorities straight
I agree with them shutting down his personal page. It’s very sad he needs someone to blame for the death of his son and my heart goes out to him. Sometimes children pass away and there is no explanation. You don’t need to try and blame someone and then potentially hurt other people because you were hurting. It’s dangerous and unethical his behavior.
Barbara Heimall wHAT? Are you being sarcastic,
Lori Rowley Deaver not sarcasm. He’s running a hysterical anti vax campaign on his Instagram, it’s heartbreaking but wrong. Almost every single post for years now is mourning his infant son, it’s almost like nothing else in his life matters. He needs to accept it was no one’s fault, and stop placing other children’s lives at risk.
Barbara Heimall you’re an idiot
Aimee Lopiccolo Helm care to explain??
Barbara Heimall have you walked in his shoes, who does he hurt by posting what he believes and what medical school did you get your license from, and when did you read his babies medical records that you are able to declare what he says is wrong. You need to wake up and if you dont like what he has to say dont follow him. I guess now we all have some idea of who complained to FB…
Barbara Heimall PS called un vaxed. Every parent should have the right to decide for their own children. If u dig and research you’ll see some staggering statistics. And un vaxed aren’t against anyone getting their children vaccinated.
Lori Rowley Deaver he is hurting people by spreading false information. That’s probably why Facebook took down his page. Sharing anti vax propaganda then using his deceased child as proof, pulling on everyone’s heart strings to join his cause is wrong. Vaccines are generally safe and effect. They are made to protect people.
Can you provide me with documentation on what you believe he says is inaccurate? I don’t think you can, it doesn’t make custom. So while I respect your right to your opinion, you are 100% wrong .
Barbara Heimall
Barbara needs to go get caught up on her vaccines!
Barbara your sick and heartless! How dare you tell a parent who lost a child what their child didn’t pass from!
This is what happens when people buy into anti vax propaganda.
https://kealakai.byuh.edu/measles-death-toll-in-samoa-rising-due-to-anti-vaccination-sentiment-according-to-byuh-professors
Barbara Heimall you seem to be the only intelligent person on this thread. Glad someone finally shut him down and I absolutely 1000% with everything you said.
Dara Marie definitely not sick or heartless. The truth of the matter is, spreading false information about vaccines can kill people. Unpopular opinion it might be, but still true.
Caitlin DiMaggio thank you!!
Barbara Heimall vaccines are more dangerous than disease. I had measles as a kid. Everyone that has had a vaccine is vaccine injured. You really need to do more research on them.
Barbara Heimall holy ???? lady, I thought I was crazy, you’re just really coocoo
Harriet Alexander that’s incredibly inaccurate, but keep drinking the kool aid. Everyone is vaccine injured?? What??
Barbara Heimall vaccines can and obviously do kill and so can medications you take. Do your own research and actually read side effects instead of just taking things. Your sick and heartless to write something so asinine thinking you know the reason this child lost his life. You have no right to make those assumptions.
Harriet Alexander

Barbara Heimall I feel sorry for you . You believe everything you read and are told by the government and news outlets. Why don’t you do your own research or is it too much for you to comprehend..
Btw vaccine makers and prescription medications are owned by pharmaceutical companies.. it’s a business! They want your $ and you sick or no profit for them!
Dara Marie literally ANYTHING can kill you. Food. Doctors. Medicine. Cars. People. You don’t stop seeing doctors, or driving around, or eating, do you. Everything has risk. Medical professionals vastly smarter than anyone here have done years upon years of research. Vaccines are safe. Vaccines help people.
Dara Marie I feel sorry YOU believe everything you read! I hope you’ve conducted double blind peer reviewed studies to back up your beliefs.
Wow yes anything can kill you…
This is why you know where your food is coming from and what goes into growing it! I’m sure you buy food from the grocery store.. do you really know the ingredients and chemicals sprayed to grow the food…
I grow my own I know what I’m consuming. You do realize that just because your a dr does not mean you know everything about medications and vaccines and you just contradicted yourself if you know everything has risks then medications and vaccines can kill and cause harm which it did to this family so have some respect and don’t speak for all.
Barbara Heimall I’ve been a guinea pig to doctors and medications and have witnessed the harm these things can cause and false diagnosis’s. You keep on listening to everything the drs and media tell you.. your exactly the type they want in their business.
Dara Marie I believe approximately 200 to 300 *globally people are injured or die from vaccine injuries or reactions annually. I may be wrong on this statistic but it is a very low number compared to how many people are in the world. However, over 1.5 million people die from vaccine preventable illnesses every year either due to lack of access or their belief that vaccines are dangerous. On the other hand over 30000 people are killed in car accidents in the United States alone every year. Which is more dangerous? But people still drive cars. My point is everything comes with risk but you have to measure risk versus reward. Vaccines are generally safe that is the consensus
Barbara Heimall to make the comment you did about a family that has been affected and suffered a loss is the point of everything it happened to them and they should not suffer anymore than what they have by having their page removed. They are spreading awareness and advising everyone to do their own research before putting horse blinders on and doing what medical/government says to. Everyone has the right to choose and saying everyone has to believe Barbara’s way or words is not right. The more people like you that keep pushing for everyone to be drugged and forced to do things is closer to making this a communist country.
I think Nick should raise this issue with the media. Contact the news channels to see if they will carry his story. The more publicity the better.
Eric Martin why? It’s Facebook. It’s not that important. There’s other Social media outlets.
Priscilla Mason because shutting down a persons Facebook page for this reason is wrong. Obviously he cares, if not he wouldn’t be trying to get his page reinstated.
The media won’t listen. Years ago it was ok to talk about issues like this but not today.
I signed and shared
I would hope he has the originals of his son stored someplace safe as I do of mine. We must remember that Facebook can do what they want with accounts.
Tim Reid it is not just the photos it is the posts.
Still, I would hope he keeps a journal on a secure device and not just on FB. That would be foolish.
Tim Reid who screen shots or downloads every post they have ever made? ????♀️
Ocean County Scanner News it’s everything. ????????
Ocean County Scanner News I don’t post personal issues on FB. Keeping a journal would be in an office/ google doc or even just a note pad. Just saying. Looking into a support group would be a way to go through. IMHO
how do I sign the petition? I can’t seem to get to it.

As long as they don’t bother mario cantone I’m good
This is bullshit
Thank you for sharing this
Jaime Steen it’s our pleasure.
This is what happens when you vote communists into office… if they dont like it they silence you.
Beyond disgraceful ????????
Then you have comments like this!!!! Disturbing that people have the nerve to shame this family!!! They lost a child!! One of gods precious gifts!!
Jaime Steen is this on our page?
Ocean County Scanner News I shared the story in another group and that was one of the comments
Jaime Steen hopefully someone reported him to page ????
Ocean County Scanner News Report him? That is solid hypocritical censorship.
Jaime Steen what a jerk .
Jaime Steen he works at a vet clinic we should call and start complaining about him have people stand in front of his job and protest this moron this guy needs to be punched in the mouth
Jaime Steen
Ernie Matika as much fun as this sounds he doesn’t deserve that satisfaction!!!
Jaime Steen he is a real piece of shit
Ernie Matika I was shocked when I saw the comment.! No heart at all!!
Ernie Matika I have the displeasure of knowing him from the past. Arrogant af
So sad. My heart breaks for him and his family. Not fair this happened.
Is it really that big of a deal that he can’t have a page?? Just make a new one with a fake name. Enough people probably reported him and That’s why they shut it down. Give it a few months. He’ll be able to make a new one. The whole vaccination issue is a touchy topic for people. My kids are vaccinated. I don’t care who vaccinated their kids and who didn’t. It’s a choice. Some people get carried away though with the whole topic. And he still has his mma page, just post on that then.
Priscilla Mason I don’t think it’s about making a new page. I’m sure he’s capable of figuring that out. The point is all of his memories and posts he made of his son before he passed away are gone now and he has no way to retrieve them. Sad.
Heather Englert I’m sure he has them saved on a computer or his phone. It is very sad. I couldn’t imagine
I lost my page and got the same message. U get another email address and good to go
John E Baumgartner obviously there were complaints made by enough people. I feel bad for him and his family. But it’s just Facebook
no reason to take his page away. This country is based on freedom of speech. Bullshit !!! As soon as you expose the truth about something. They want to shut you up. Whether People agree with him or not. He’s more than entitled to get his message a crossed . That’s exactly why they took it down. He hit a nerve “”
He did start a new page with a new email. Used his full name so it was different. He was shut down again. In a matter of days.
Jessica Lomax yes they shut that one down too
Jessica Lomax they’ve reached out to Del about it.
Julie Farrell Todd yea I saw him talk about it on the hirewire!
Signed.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH BUT FACE BOOKS IS RUN BY NAZI LIBERALS.
Patricia Donato Facebook – where its okay with pushing their political agenda and shoving that shit down our throats but God forbid a person should express an opinion. Get banned for life. ????
Signed!
Love how sites that against the political “agenda” get shut down! What happened to FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!??
Facebook has nothing to do with freedom of speech
Amy IShere no speech is truly free. Then it would be free from debate, criticism, ridicule, repercussions and consequences. Also, FB is a privately owned entity. FB makes the rules on a page we all post on. Idk what he said or did… but a total ban is done for those under a court order in most cases
Scott A Barnes Facebook is funded and ruled by “ententes” that tell Facebook what it has to remove. There is no free speech. Is fb would allow it then it still wouldn’t be allowed. This country has been purchased by corporations years ago and it’s truly sad what it has become. ????
Most definitely
Our freedom of speech is being taken away! It’s time to be heard.
Lmao everybody screamin about FREEDOM OF SPEACH AND FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS, you have no rights on a privately owned platform. You don’t get a Facebook page with your social security number at birth. It’s a private company not a government entity. I don’t agree he was banned but they can do whatever the fuck they want it’s their website.
Freedom of speech weather you agree or not!!!
Biased censorship!!!!
I believe in vaccinating. But I also believe there are serious dangers. In rare cases or not. He lost his baby boy. My heart aches for him and his wife
He should File a civil liberties violation suit against them to at least regain access to his property.
That is so wrong
Although I do not agree with his anti vaccine stance… he DOES a have a right to voice it. As a father, I do not know what I’d do if I lost either of my girls. So my heart breaks for him for that.
FB unless a judge forced it or you threaten with a lawyer… will never reverse a decision to put someone in FB jail. Now I hear he is banned m… what did he do for that?!?! Spread awareness to his stance? Mourn his son?!
Signed
You suck assface book.

Well said !
Leftbook yep boots all conservatives
