In reply to the discussion: I too would like to thank the Hillary Clinton group [View all]TTUBatfan2008
(3,623 posts)I was Juror #2 and voted to leave it alone. I will say that I've voted to hide a couple of anti-Hillary posts in recent days. I think the Bernie people should be allowed to say what they want to say in the Bernie group, just as I have seen very harsh anti-Bernie and anti-Bernie supporter stuff posted in the Hillary group that was not hidden.

REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Calling other DU'ers disgusting is over the top, if this isn't disruptive meta I don't know what it. Guaranteed the hosts won't lock it so why waste the SOP alert, let's start to hide this divisive crap from either campaigns supporters.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Feb 22, 2016, 03:13 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Discuss the issues, don't alert. No hide.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Seriously Clinton people? Stick to your group and quit trying to censor criticism of your candidate in the Sanders group.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I'm a Bernie supporter and I agree with the alerter. Beyond the pale. I recently, to my regret, decided not to hide another anti-Hillary supporters post that did deserve it, in a moment of partisan weakness, but I'm going to regain my neutrality and hide posts that deserve it in either direction. And this one deserves it. It shouldn't even BE in the Bernie group as well, it has nothing to do with Bernie.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I think a poster should be permitted an opinion in their protected group.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: The phrase "disgusting crevices of the Democratic Party that need to be cleansed" is indeed over the top. I understand the "Underground" part of the site, but this post ignores the "Democratic" part and treats the party as an adversary.
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.
