REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Great, start a post with the words "flame away" and not even idientify who you are talking about. This is flamebait, and it keeps the discuorse here at a low point.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Jul 8, 2014, 09:41 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Alerter may be right; however, I don't think the post should be censored.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Weirdly sexist in addition to being obvious flamebait. Hide it.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The posting does lack essential information, it is an incomplete sentence in this context and the meaning that CAN be derived is sexist in my view. It is still an opinion even if it is unclear whom the message is about. Leaving it up is fair because it shows the inability of the poster to express themselves coherently.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Who is the flame bait?
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Flame bait indeed.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: 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.

A vote for Hillary is a vote for more trade agreements and more wars and more lost jobs.
