REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Seriously? Again with the thinly veiled insults and personal attacks? Is this ALL that rug is capable of; petty personal attacks, insults, and disruption? For what? What does this accomplish other than to make DU suck more. Whats most dispicable is the fact that rug doesn't seem to have the courage to come right out and call Warren an "asshole", but uses posts like this to feel clever when a jury allows it. Will you allow it, jury? Is rug really that clever?

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Dec 1, 2014, 11:22 AM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Meh, too clever by half.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Rug does like to stir things up - this is not nice.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Yes, personal attack by addendum.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Yes, rug is clever enough not to directly call Warren Stupidity an asshole just like Warren Stupidity is careful (usually) to stay on the good side of the line when he criticizes others.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I have learned over the years here that you have to develop a thick skin to debate.
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.
