ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Wow, A Tea Party is friendlier than Bernie supporters. Over-the-top, I would say.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Aug 13, 2015, 03:47 PM, 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: I'm not hiding something because someone has thin skin. This is not over the top nor is it a personal attack.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Post is unclear. Read it several times. Can't figure out if it's saying the Tea Party is friendlier to Blacks than a Sanders rally, or if it's saying it might be friendlier to the OP specifically. Either way, leave it alone and let the discussion continue in the open.

Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's sarcasm ...
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
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.
