55. It was a wrongfully hidden post
Mon Mar 14, 2016, 02:54 AM
Mar 2016

I've had my clashes with Nance, but I don't understand why that post or OP was hidden. It may have been as someone pointed out that Nance just rubbed some the wrong way, and as luck or coincidence would have it, 5 of them happened to be on this jury. She has a tendency to fall back on a scolding tone. I've been the recipient. But i still respect her and especially her opinion on something her departed husband had initiated. And I agree that the DUzy always was a more light hearted stab at the opposition party. And it shouldn't be used as a hammer against supporters of the "other" candidate within the same Democratic party.

I'm sorry this happened.

But I also feel that the jury system, by and large, works well in here. This result was a strange anomaly.

You're a really decent dude. As I'm sure you've heard plenty of times. nt Guy Whitey Corngood Mar 2016 #1
