Critizem of Bibi is no more anti-Semitic... [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by uppityperson (a host of the General Discussion forum).

Than critizem of Obama is racist.

How this was so offensive is completely beyond me.

You juror #1 really need to read all my posts and see how I am favorable to people of all religions and all colors. And I am also disrespectful of all religions in equal ways.


Well no. I base my opinion on your insulting, outlandish posts.

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Personal attacks, with a touch of anti-Semitism leveled against a Jewish poster. Inappropriate and over the top!

JURY RESULTS

A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Wed Jan 14, 2015, 03:56 PM, and voted 6-1 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: More than a touch of anti-Semitism. Hide this crap. Admin. should look at this person, too.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Both participants are equally repulsive. Let them fight it out.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: It's a bit of a difficult decision because the posts s/he responds to are also attacking, but I think s/he takes it too far with that second paragraph.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Post could have been worded so as to express the same opinion, but without the obvious personal attack. Vote to Hide It.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: rude, insulting and does not belong here
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No comment needed.
