Bernie Sanders and the Minuteman Militia
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251730317

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

The article title on the page: ""Progressive Hero" Voted to Protect Racist Vigilante Border Thugs". Totally over the top.

Article comes from a well known spam site that runs by posting clickbait trash and misinformation. The owner of that site was banned from DU for spamming the board. This is exactly the kind of garbage makes DU suck.

This was hidden last time it was posted so let's hide it again. http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251461135

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Oct 26, 2015, 06:15 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Do we have to go through this again?
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Bernie Sanders supporters need to stop alerting on fact based posts just because they do not like what they read about their preferred candidate. LEAVE IT ALONE but I am guessing there are enough Bernie posters that will, once again, try to hide truth.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Let's not try to censor people with whom we disagree, okay? Nothing to see here, move along.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If what's written in the OP is a lie,comment in the OP. This is no different than stuff written about other candidates here that is allowed to stand. I'm not going to show favoritism other one candidate and not another.

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