REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Implying someone is gay as an insult only "works" if the implication is that it is negative in the first place. Stop using "gay" as an insult. (For those who do not recognize it, NAMBLA is the North American Man Boy Love Association.)
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Mar 31, 2014, 07:56 PM, and the Jury voted 2-4 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: NAMBLA is a pedophilia organization, not a gay organization. It is most certainly negative to be associated with. The alerter is either confused, intentionally obtuse, or perhaps more homophobic than the poster, as they're implying gay = pedophile??
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Is the Alerter implying that NAMBLA is a legitimate "gay" organization? I don't get this alert at all. The post is fine.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: As a queer person, I find this alert totally bizarre. NAMBLA does not equal gay. NAMBLA does equal creepy pedophiles. I have no idea if Rush is a creepy pedophile, and if he were a Democrat then calling him that without proof would certainly violate TOS, but being bitchy to Republicans is half the fun around here.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
