ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Catholics pay it forward, but Jews don't?
Sounds very much like a stereotype about Jews being rich and cheap? Am I misinterpreting?
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Aug 22, 2014, 07:19 AM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Alerter is misinterpreting.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Stupid stupid "joke", I think. But, let the other posters expose the stupidity and thus give the poster a chance to acknowledge....
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm not understanding what the post is trying to say. It could be a stereotype, but let's have that as part of the discussion instead of censoring it outright.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: That was my initial impression too alerter and I was getting ready to vote to hide. Then I went back a few more times just to make sure and what the poster is saying is that Jews wield guilt. Which while a stereotype, like Catholics wield guilt, isn't really an insulting or offensive one.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Un-effin'-believable someone would post such garbage.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
