REASON FOR ALERT:
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate. (See <a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus#communitystandards" target="_blank">Community Standards</a>.)
ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
This new member of DU is writing increasing antagonistic OPs that appear to be directed at DU gun owners. We can talk about this issue at DU without being uncivil toward one another. I ask to hide this OP because I see him/her being increasingly disruptive on DU and so that MIRT can take a look at this new member.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Apr 24, 2013, 04:30 PM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Par for the course for the anti-gunners. They have never read "How to Win Friends and Influence People." While this is of course antagonistic and childish, I can't really justify hiding it. Better to engage this low-count poster in dialogue and show that gun owners are not thin-skinned hot heads.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: While nearing the "line" it doesn't look like the poster crossed it in my opinion - recommend monitoring the poster for future complaints/alerts to his/her posts.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: This post is awesome. Gun nut alerter needs to take a hike.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: The poster is being neither disruptive or uncivil, simply examining an issue from another angle. He/she does not violate any community standards.
I get the impression that the person who sent the alert is making this a personal issue and/or project.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: I think the direct attack using "you" is antagonistic. re: "Do you gun lovers realize just how sick you sound..."
The message could be expressed more objectively. Since new member it is important for them to learn the rules.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
