You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Jun 27, 2014, 11:56 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: She is referring to Congress. Last I checked, it is pretty much a lot of stupid, old, white men in Congress. Let's change that. GOTV !!
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Stupid alert. It is because of stupid old white men that marijuana is illegal. That's who made it illegal, you know, back when women and minorities were excluded from the legislating process.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Give me a fucking break. All last weekend we heard how hiding misogynist insults amounted to censorship, and you want me to hide this? Fact, congress is comprised of are old white men. Pretending otherwise doesn't change that reality. White isn't something else. White is the dominant race , the privileged, so changing it makes all the difference. It would also be a complete lie since congress is overwhelming white. Take your BS about racism against whites to some white supremacist or far right-wing site that buys that shit. It has no place among liberals, and SHAME on you for playing that right-wing game here.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: getting tired of "old white man" racial/age based slurs... would get banned in a minute for saying same thng about a female.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
