YOUR COMMENTS

> Open Carry Campus Carry In Iowa In 2016!

Creepy comment to make out of the blue when made directed towards an instructor at a state university in Iowa.

What are you trying to prove by reference to open displays of deadly weapons at specific universities where DUers teach?

Is this comment some kind of threat?

We don't threaten our fellow posters here at DU.

Please hide.

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Fri Mar 25, 2016, 12:14 AM, and voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT ALONE.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Really?
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Nobody threatened anybody. And I'm against both open and concealed carry.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I don't know the intent of this post, but it is disturbing, to say the least. However, the fact that several DU members here are mocking people who are saying they are afraid and in pain... makes me upset. Open carry campus? How does that message have anything to do with the conversation at hand? Unless it is indeed intended to be threatening, or to praise the idea of an open carry campus. In either case, I vote to hide.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: not sure if one is bat shit crazy or the other is?? Leave and let Bat Man decide..
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given

Should the National Democratic Convention be threatened with OPEN CARRY the same way... [View all] stone space Mar 2016 OP

Unlike the GOP, open carry is the position of some Democrats DavidDvorkin Mar 2016 #1

But yet they are allowed to issue their threats here on DU with impunity. (nt) stone space Mar 2016 #2

So you agree that open carry is a threat, yes? JoePhilly Mar 2016 #4

I agree, but you might want to ask the author of post #5. stone space Mar 2016 #6

I live in NC and have to put up with the GOP ... JoePhilly Mar 2016 #11

We're talking about Democratic threats of Domestic Terrorism here. stone space Mar 2016 #13

Yes, and? DavidDvorkin Mar 2016 #23

That doesn't follow. Lizzie Poppet Mar 2016 #25

Did you post this in the wrong forum by mistake? Cheese Sandwich Mar 2016 #9

Is the Democratic Convention not a part of the Primary process? (nt) stone space Mar 2016 #14

I think it's perfectly on-topic here. Lizzie Poppet Mar 2016 #19

Such threats of CAMPUS CARRY against State Universities are perfectly legal. stone space Mar 2016 #31
