JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Jan 22, 2015, 07:26 PM, and the Jury voted 4-3 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: aren,t guilty,not accused of anything.

context is everything
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It is a reference to a Glenn Beck meme from a few years ago. It makes perfect sense given the post it is in reply to.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I know what Dsmoinesdem was trying, but that's an old glenn beck example and shouldn't be used here
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: It's not appropriate to use the example of rape and murder by a DUer. Let's keep our conversation civil. Choose other metaphors next time. We get the point, but DU could degenerate into just nasty comments, accusations, and the like. It's not a crime to make a mistake in a post, but let's take the post off DU so other DUers don't copy the style. Like I said, not a crime. Just a mistake. But we just don't need that kind of uncontrolled overly emotional insult on DU. This is a place for rational talk.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No need to explain why.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No your are not. It might be an overly sarcastic response , but you are not so accused.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
