On Fri Feb 26, 2016, 11:38 AM an alert was sent on the following post:

What morons voted to hide that comment????
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1107&pid=56636

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Calling jurors morons is rude and unnecessary. Attacking fellow DUers and calling them names because we disagree with their decisions is over-the-top.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Feb 26, 2016, 11:51 AM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Morons is hardly over the top.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: You should probably stay out of groups you disagree with, instead of joining and alerting posts in them. Truly sad what has become of this site on all sides.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Agree. I will vote to hide any time it gets personal, or OTT, no matter who they support. DU needs cleaning up. Get back to civility.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: this is silly, in my opinion. if you can't even call someone a moron without getting alerted on then I wonder what freedom of speech even means.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It IS rude, and it smacks of tribalism. But not hideable, IMO.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: And alert-stalking is beyond the pale, alerter. 3-4 Hillary supporters have been silenced over just a few days, and many more are hovering at 4 hides because Bernie supporters are trying to spread a chilling atmosphere to silence opponents. They regularly go into the Hillary group to hunt. Well, I won't vote to hide a post that questions such obviously partisan juries. KitS

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

We shouldn't be so mean to such positive, respectful people who just want to save us from ourselves.

And then they end up pushed to the point where we just have to STFU!

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This poster is talking about DUers. Personal insulting attack from a protected forum.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Feb 26, 2016, 10:07 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: My understanding is that ragging on Bernie supporters is permitted in the Hillary group. Best to just stay away from it.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm all for freely expressing opinions and being allowed to do so on DU until the dialogue demeans or attacks others. This post Falls under that and should be hidden.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Kinda funny when the alert proves the point
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's okay, not OTT, especially in protected group

They had to silence WCZ. They couldn't take the heat.

It is a badge of honor indicating that WCZ fought the good fight and will be back to fight again soon.

is the new standard.

Here's what's telling: it would be appropriate to hide that if this was the GE and that was a response to the party's nominee - those idiots are being allowed to treat GDP as though we have a presumptive nominee.

Something needs to be fixed. Back only for a few weeks and not liking what I'm seeing.

This one is really dumb in terms of the outcome! I wonder what the vote was? I have not voted to hide anything lately. We need to allow each side their due. I think the language gets a little over the top but we all have a right to our opinions. We all need to chill!
