You are the only one perpetuating it here
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=7386124

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Look at the op. then look at her second post. "you are the only one perpetuating it here (racism) daily. "Enough of your hatred". He point blank accused the poster of being a racist and posting racist things at DU daily. Step back and put your feelings about the op in another compartment. skinner has point blank stated that accusing another DUer of being a racist is a hide worthy offense. Look for Manny Goldstein posts from Feb 2013 in the African American group. If calling Manny a racist is hide worthy then calling bravenak a racist should be hide worthy. We have to start bring objective about posters and their behavior or this site wont be able to come together when Berne wins!

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Nov 27, 2015, 06:19 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm not going to hide, because I think the poster put this post in the wrong place...an easy thing to do, I've done it myself. It just doesn't follow, otherwise, in the thread.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: This post is disruptive, rude.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I do not see this comment as accusing the OP of being a racist, but feeding the meme of racism. Not the same thing in my book.
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.
