On Sat Jan 30, 2016, 11:54 AM an alert was sent on the following post:

Why has Bernie not mentioned Hillary's bold faced lie on being under enemy fire? That is ligitimate.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511096591

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Is this person *ligitimate*? Bernie is not stupid and he'd have to be to bring this up. This sounds like OBVIOUS shit-stirring to create a DU fight. It's not a "ligitimate" issue-Clinton retracted the story years ago. What it is, though, is an attempt to make Bernie supporters on DU look like Bernie Bros. Who benefits from that? Bernie doesn't do stupid shit and this poster is trolling to encourage stupid shit behavior from his supporters.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Jan 30, 2016, 12:11 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The responses to the poster are handling this issue appropriately. It happened, but not relevant today. That seems to be the verdict. You will create a bigger problem for your candidate if it appears like you're trying to shut down discussion right before a major election.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: This won't get hidden, sadly. This garbage is typical DU, new posters and all. Not impressed.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: These attacks are all too common from some Sanders supporters but I will be the bigger man and vote to leave it alone.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is a bad alert for a couple of reasons. First, since when is posting a reference to an actual untruth, documented and for which Clinton herself acknowledged that she "misspoke" as "disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate"? Finally, the petty tone of snotty superiority in the alert because the poster misspelled a word speaks volumes about the person who alerted.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Hillaryous!

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

I was Juror #6.
