I do not think this jury system is working! [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by TexasTowelie (a host of the General Discussion forum).

Some DUers post really obnoxious posts and when it goes to Jury, most people vote to leave it alone, no matter how obnoxious the comments are.

I just want to make my voice heard. Have no idea what the owners of this site can do, I know they are trying to be fair but sometimes, it depends who are on the jury!
