Your hidden post seemed fair and factual to me. I'm not happy with Senator Sanders' attitude since his loss in the Primary but I really don't care what he does as long as he doesn't help Donald Trump. Had I been on your jury, I would have voted to Leave It.

Stay strong, truebrit71. The jury system will improve after Monday, I believe.

There isn't a response at the end of the thread indicating it was being locked. Is there another way to find out?

Like I said, I don't find anything offensive in jillian's post. She expressed herself vehemently but certainly nothing that was rude, disruptive or over-the-top.

A doubly stacked jury not of one's peers, no explanation of the alert, no consideration of trolling patterns, no transparency of the results.

Not Catholics as a whole, just the Pope. Amazing some of the things that get hidden around here. A progressive site where calling a bigot a bigot gets hidden.


We should all be able to believe it at this point. The jury system is flawed and that is very well known. Hard to imagine surprise over it now.

Shame it turned to shit. Oh well, probably should have gone away in 08 but I guess the money was too good to do the proper thing at the time.

Sure, everyone else is wrong and only you and yours are right. Is that how it goes?

Even Sanders' own colleagues don't think much of his 'preachyness'.

It's becoming clearer that Sanders - or mere mention of Sanders or his ideas - and his supporters of those ideas, are NOT welcome here on DU.
