He may be
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=5923694

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

YOUR COMMENTS

Please do use that disgusting racist and xenophobic epithet here at DU.

Babies are babies, not anchors.

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Sun Dec 7, 2014, 08:07 AM, and voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT ALONE.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: A very rude statement, but free speech should be protected on DU

Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Don't really like this post or term, or the original post. But, I seldom vote to hide. People are responding appropriately to the unnecessary OP and waste of screen space.

Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Sounds racist. Just because we don't like Bobby Jindal does not give us carte blanche to make racist statements about him. This is a test of the conscience of DU. I hope I'm not disappointed.

Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given

Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: This idiot is posting horrifically bigoted and right wing garbage throughout this thread ... links to 'Gomer" as source of a coherent explanation ...? WTF

I am hoping MIRT or the Admins take note and address this bigoted imbecile

Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Jeez. "Anchor baby"? Really? Dude....(smh)

Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you.
