ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Clueless or bigotted against Transgender people? I think bigoted and worth a hide.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Mar 4, 2015, 10:49 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Its a discussion board and he was voicing his opinion, even though I may disagree with it.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Flamebait.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Just an ill-considered comment. In other words: dumb. But I don't think it's bigotry.
Frankly, I think we could all be a little less PC.
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.

I was juor #6. It's sad that the vote was only 4-3. At DU, it should have been unanimous.

We have some Libertarian type jurors who think nothing should be hidden, even bigotry.

Agree, but I think transgenders are born what they are, not the so-called opposite gender
