http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=818751
REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Dursuptive flamebait, calls DUrs "not democrat".
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Nov 16, 2015, 04:13 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Seriously?
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Seems on the edge, but I don't think it goes over the edge. Certainly, far worse posts never even get alerted upon.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's a call out of RW talking points.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Stalking alert and a really stupid one at that.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: To the alerter: DU is a message board on the internet. The internet has trolls, trolls, and sometimes more trolls. The requirement for joining DU is a valid email address. The requirements to stay on DU are to be polite and not too blatant with your sexism, racism, homophobia, and subtle about your classism. Other than that, anyone can post here; repub, Democrat, dittoheads, limbaugh himself and so long as you're polite in your tolerance of intolerance or you post your intolerance politely and "reasonably," you're good to go. In the meantime, there are trolls, more trolls, and sometimes even more trolls on the internet, on which DU "resides." Check some old profiles so you can see exactly how long someone can post at DU before being banned as a troll; I think the longest may have been dfk with 10 years or so; omc was only 6 years.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE

I had been away from the 'puter for awhile, hit refresh and immediately got summoned, saw this idiotic thread and the obvious stalk alert. Thankfully some sanity exists with DU jurors based on the results.
It's sad that DU has descended into cheering and reccing some of the most outrageously obscene and vile detritus worthy of Free Republic and CC, put out there about Democratic candidates. I even saw a post about "Hillary's vagina". One can disagree with a candidate's policies without the childishly nasty and frothing posts. DU has descended into hell and it will have a tough time rising out of it.
