ALERTER'S COMMENTS
I'm pretty sure this is the definition of rude and inappropriate.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Nov 27, 2014, 08:51 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: False equivalency trying to yank DUers to RW sites from what posters on the thread who googled it as the OP requested. OP is flamebait that author is trying to hide by not linking. Language is rough but shining DU on is worse.
OP has been here long enough to know better, but suddenly comes out of the woodpile with this. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to hide the comment by bravenak. Stop playing games with us. It's not funny right now, a lot of people are feeling raw.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Original post is, to say the least, unhelpful. Response (on which I'm voting) is useless, as well. Let everyone see the stupidity.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

(4,631 posts)An upstate New York police officer was shot and killed by a crazed man who snatched his gun from his holster during a disturbance call Monday morning, according to police.
Johnson City Officer David Smith, 43, was shot multiple times outside an MRI office near Binghamton after a disturbed employee managed to grab his gun just after 7 a.m., said Police Chief Joseph Zikuski.
The married 18-year police veteran, who has an 11-year-old son, had just arrived at Southern Tier Imaging when MRI technician James Clark, 43, wildly ran up to him before punching him several times as he was trying to exit his vehicle, said Zikuski.

(27,275 posts)why don't you have the courage to state YOUR thoughts? we already know what they are, since you said your would have killed that 12yo too.

(81 posts)I think it shows people do irrational things. The person started his attack while the officer was still in his car. I think we sometimes see events through rational eyes using rational thought, when the reality is not everyone thinks that way. I believe we see or read about events and have a hard time believing it because it does not make sense to us.
All I am trying to do by bring this to the forum is to show there are people who think and act very irrational. Sometimes we may need to wait until all the facts are known before making a conclusion.
