“Brock Turner for Olympics 2016" (a page that has since been disabled)

. . . .

News of the ban became public the same day a Facebook group campaign—titled “Brock Turner for Olympics 2016"—also went viral. As Bustle succinctly stated, “the group [is] a bastion of misogyny, full of juvenile sexism and insecure displays of masculinity,” with a number of rape apologist memes to boot.

As of now, the Facebook page supporting Turner has been disabled.
