ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

"Crackas" and "niggas"?? Is this appropriate for DU?

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Dec 28, 2013, 09:35 PM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: It's a little extreme and I wish towelie had starred them out, but it's a quote and addressing the hillbilly minstrel show southern stereo types. Peace.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I am actually struggling with this one. I can see why the author would be pissed at A
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Dumb alert. Alerter, do you really think nobody else is able to understand the literary use of those quoted phrases in this context?
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Please.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: In the context of this particular subject matter, "privileged cracka muthafuckas" is appropriate.

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