52. JURY RESULTS: 1-6 to LEAVE IT
Sat Feb 27, 2016, 10:21 AM
Feb 2016

On Sat Feb 27, 2016, 10:11 AM an alert was sent on the following post:

No Hillary Clinton did NOT call Black Children "Super Predators"..
http://www.democraticunderground.com/110757362

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This thread calls anyone that disagrees with the term superpredator a racist, including MANY people banned from this group who can not defend themselves. That's pretty much the definition of "hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate"

Super-predator as defined by everyone in 1995/1996 had literally nothing to do with people recruiting people into gangs. It was defined as children, with no morality or concept of right and wrong, that could not be rehabilitated and must be locked up. Full stop. Not gang members. Saying that people that use the word correctly are labelling all black people as gang members is dishonest, labels honest people as racist, and is extremely disruptive.

Please do the right thing and shut this down.


You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Feb 27, 2016, 10:19 AM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given

Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Yes, the image is extremely dishonest in my opinion, and could be viewed as racist by using the black lives matter movement to support devastatingly racist policy. This is the Hillary group though, and they are allowed to post their favorable counter opinion regardless of if it matched with reality.

Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I don't see the "racist" part. It's dense and dumb ... like almost everything OP posts.... but hardly off the charts. es. for that "Group".

Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is an abuse of the alert system.

Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Bernie supporter here. Also nothing alert-worthy here. Leave it.

Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Trying to get around being banned from a Group by sending an alert is an abuse of the alert system. This post does not do what is alleged; it is an opinion. It is appropriate to debate this view, but shutting it down is highly inappropriate. I support the other candidate, too.

Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: HRC Room

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