How to be a lying sack of shit...

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Bobbie Jo (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

Just post this in a protected group where Sanders supporters are accused of being liars. This was in response to a call for Clinton donations.

" I'm maxed out too but

I'm getting donations from my republican neighbors (I am surrounded by them) by saying, "if Bernie gets in, you'll be paying 90% in taxes so make sure Clinton wins" hahahahahahaha"

And if this costs me a hide then this board is worthless. This may be the most unethical post I have ever seen, plus the poster came back on amnesty and carries 10 hides...

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Calling other editors "a lying sack of shit" is rather unacceptable.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Mar 31, 2016, 05:06 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: OK, I'll go with "lying sack of shit" is over the top.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The title is profane but I've seen plenty of that on this site, that don't get hides. His gripe sounds legitimate. Protected group or not, the post with the lies should be hidden. Not the post calling it out.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

You lost at jury so you try to inject race. Epic fail. Get lost. Or if you really want to raise the tone go after your own prevaricator.

... the jury system here is broke and I'm glad they're going to fix it.

I didn't report, it's not worth the silence.

Good thing about dems is most of us will learn even if its something stupid

if the original poster supports what he did he should tell us under which neighbors name he is making donations...not that that would be a federal felony or anything....

Bernie doesn't think 90% marginal is too high a tax. Perhaps not according to socialist philosophy ... I mean "democratic socialist" .. pardon me.
