ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

Personal attack.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Apr 22, 2013, 11:00 AM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: This is a tough one. Technically, "right wing NRA apologist" is rude. But it's the only rude phrase in a long and important post. Ask the OP to edit out the insult.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Hey it's a great debate. There are always at least 2 sides to an issue or discussion. DU would be as boring as watching paint dry if there was no 'heat'
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: 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.
