http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=6963460
REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Rude, over the top response after claiming a personal insult.
JURY RESULTS
A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Sat Jul 11, 2015, 11:34 AM, and voted 6-1 to HIDE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: There's no need to swear. Sometimes it's best to ignore a comment, than respond like that. It gives the impression that you lack the means to give a further argument to the position you've taken.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: yep - rude and abusive
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The whole thread is full of personal insults from what I can see. Either learn to discuss issues civilly on all sides, or don't ask juries to hide one side.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: IMO: you should have stopped before the "fuck off" comment.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: "Fuck off" might be excusable under *certain* circumstances. Not these, though. I read the post to which he was responding. I detected no personal insult.
Vulgarity and unprovoked nastiness lowers the level of discussion. Hide it.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
