Nov 2015

And I have no problem saying that I am Juror #1. Nor that if the post would have been about my preferred candidate (Sanders), and containing a similar level of "hate and hyperbole," my vote would have been the same. Really tired of these kinds of alerts.

On Sat Nov 7, 2015, 02:40 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

Hillary big winner in Democratic Forum
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251777432

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This is way over the top bashing of a democratic candidate. It's not filled with any facts, just a bunch of hate and hyperbole.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Nov 7, 2015, 02:43 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The post is full of opinion, just like thousands of other posts on this site. One person's opinion is another's "bunch of hate and hyperbole." Everybody needs to get over it and stop with the bullshit alerts.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: sad
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Agree with alert
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: This is over the top and deliberately disruptive, it meets the criteria for hiding it.
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.
