in there. I particularly like the advice that you all just ignore each other.

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Wed Dec 28, 2011, 07:12 PM, and voted 2-4 to LEAVE IT ALONE.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Unless the whole subthread can be deleted, then I'll just leave it.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: The entire subthread needs to be deleted and any further instigation by any of them should result in a suspension. I'm tired of seeing Christians attack Atheists and vice versa on this board. Both sides do it and there needs to be a stop put to it now before it escalates.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: This looks like its an ongoing feud between the 2 posters. I'm not sure if it's something to be banned but the posters maybe should try to ignore each other.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: I'm voting to hide, but I'm doing so because of the personal attack contained in the post. I'm not nuts about the "multiple people alerted on" message.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: It's a bit snarky; but it's replying to a very snarky post.

Thank you.
