ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Victim-hood garment sounds pretty right wing to me but I'll let the jury decide

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sun Jun 19, 2016, 12:46 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
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: White privaledge is real.
This post does not violate the rules.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The original post asks a question and the alerted post responds. The answer may be a bit sour, but hardly qualifies for a hide. It might have seemed more over the top if a question hadn't been asked for opinions in the first place.

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

Funny, but my comment wasn't saved. Maybe I fat fingered it, but what I WANT to say is, what kind of a survey do we have to give ourselves to validate who we are that uses THIS tripe? Shame on you.
