ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Direct TOS violation: Do not post or link to extreme images of violence, gore, bodily functions, pain, or human suffering for no purpose other than to shock and disgust.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Nov 12, 2015, 09:00 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is or should be public knowledge freely available, distributed, and seen. War isn't pretty.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Sometimes you need shock
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: What's the matter, can't handle the truth? We need MORE of this! People need to see what goes on with the military. It is NOT over the top, it is under the radar. So much so that people don't want to acknowledge the harsh truth of these things going on in the military in their name.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Ordinarily I would agree with the alerter but since these pictures were common on DU during the war I see no reason to hide them now. And they are relevant to the topic of the op.
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.
