REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

The OP deliberately disguised the location of this article, using a blind link and deliberately omitting the fact that the location is Ireland. He/she admits that in post #2. This is deceptive and the article is irrelevant to US politics. By trying to deceive DUers, the OP insults everyone's intelligence and attempts to stir up some crap, rather than helping us by providing relevant facts. Deliberate deception. Please read Post #2 and then hide this OP. -MineralMan

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Apr 28, 2015, 01:41 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: You have GOT to be kidding me. Do you think others can't figure that out? ESPECIALLY since it's in post #2? This is not against the CS of DU. Not even close.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If he was wanting to decieve people, why would he admit to it?

The forum allows for discussion of Foreign politics as well. If you take offense to that Mineralman, feel free to speak to the admins about changing that rule.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: There is nothing in the DU standards that bars non-US stories.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Or it could be a way of showing the US isn't unique (General Discussion is not limited to US politics, I believe). Your points are valid ones to bring up with the poster in the discussion.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: We can't read the news anymore?
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: There was a link. Jumping to conclusions without even trying to follow it seems like a personal problem.
