Great, huh?

1. Ugh...

We're clearly infested with DINO's. Going to the FBI for a definition on terrorism? Oh that's just rich. I guess he'll be parroting Nixon and Putin next?

[dbackjon]

2. No doubt.

But surprisingly, the jury got one right and voted 5-1 to hide that post.

6. I should hope the jury sides with the LGBT community 24/7

In my eyes you can't really be a liberal if you're willing to trivialize or otherwise turn a blind eye to the mistreatment of LGBT people.

8. Unfortunately, my and other LGBT posters on here find

that happens less than 10% of the time here

3. Jury result - 5-1 to hide.

Uh, no. Terrorism, as it is defined by the military, is about physical attacks

ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

This post is homophobic and belittling in nature - "getting my panties in a wad" over threats to my life.

JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Aug 12, 2013, 12:48 PM, and the Jury voted 5-1 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT and said: Tough, rather borderline situation. But in the end the post body seems personally directed and does not add anything substantial to the main point which was in the title.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: Disruptive, insensitive, divisive.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

Thankfully

5. Yeah, a good hide.

[Skittles]

7. that one is a piece of work

[Warpy]

9. Double ugh.

Chalk that one up as a member of the "If it doesn't happen to me, it doesn't exist" crowd.

10. My only advice and I may be wrong for doing it

But GD Forum for awhile. It's not a safe have & the juries are far from perfect and it does have it's share of bigots. It's given me piece of mind since trashing GD.

[dbackjon]

11. I have thought about that

But it seems like surrendering to the bigots.

[William769]

12. Good point.

I won't say no more because I know some are alert stalking.

[dbackjon]

13. i wish there was tranparency in that regard

[William769]

14. Looks like LBN is next. nt

[dbackjon]

15. Probably so

16. I simply don't understand the hostility of some otherwise left-leaning folks when it comes to LGBT

issues. Obviously none of us is immune to cultural prejudices, but you'd think these guys would at least have the good sense to be discreet about their biases, i.e. not look like a complete dick in a public forum.
