the thread in question noiretextatique Feb 2016 #246

Oh wait, you mean bravenak's thread. I get it. I didn't read that thread yet. (nt) betsuni Feb 2016 #245

yes..that part was omitted noiretextatique Feb 2016 #247

i have zero respect for this tactic noiretextatique Feb 2016 #244

this happened in an OP by bravenak claiming sanders thinks all blacks are poor noiretextatique Feb 2016 #248

what does it matter what the OP is about ? the issue here is the use of the N word towards 1sbm and JI7 Feb 2016 #249

the trolll was banned, the post was deleted noiretextatique Feb 2016 #252

I don't like my brother and sister being called the N-word by anyone and I'm white. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #294

how do you plan to stop trolls from coming here and using the n word? noiretextatique Feb 2016 #299

If somebody called you the N-word... DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #302

if it is alerted on, which it was noiretextatique Feb 2016 #305

honestly, that's kinda nuts noiretextatique Feb 2016 #312

How can you say due process is nuts? DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #314

because: he's guilty noiretextatique Feb 2016 #316

One can and should not be found guilty without due process... DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #321

You keep arguing around this reality noiretextatique Feb 2016 #325

There are virtually no firm rules on what can be hidden. It is a jury decision. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #332

That's just not true. If it is egregious enough noiretextatique Feb 2016 #335

There are no firm rules... DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #344

Because: he is not a "defendant" noiretextatique Feb 2016 #348

There was a complaint made against him in the form of an alert... DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #353

There is no such rule. OilemFirchen Feb 2016 #341

Reposting the deleted posts of banned trolls noiretextatique Feb 2016 #358

Hey! Look at what the alerter I was just on a jury for gave as reason for alert: betsuni Feb 2016 #253

Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sheshe2 Feb 2016 #254

juries are selected randomly noiretextatique Feb 2016 #255

Everybody knows juries are selected randomly. betsuni Feb 2016 #262

this OP claims there is a concerted effort to silence black DUers noiretextatique Feb 2016 #267

I am bereft our brief sweet romance on the other thread was cruelly ended by a locking. betsuni Feb 2016 #293

This is the most important post I've seen. Agnosticsherbet Feb 2016 #257

riddle me this: how can a randomally selected jury be inherently baised? noiretextatique Feb 2016 #260

If 85% of your jury pool holds certgain belief, they are inherantly biased. Agnosticsherbet Feb 2016 #270

so...what is the inherent bias of DU juries? noiretextatique Feb 2016 #271

Where in the hell did you read that? leftofcool Feb 2016 #274

take a moment from reactionary outrage, and read noiretextatique Feb 2016 #301

We are discussing a jury system that biases the outcome in favore of the majority's narrow ideology. Agnosticsherbet Feb 2016 #317

it was not a problem until now noiretextatique Feb 2016 #320

I think when a majority, whether benign or malign or neither, controls a system Agnosticsherbet Feb 2016 #365

i agree it is a possibility noiretextatique Feb 2016 #377

The inherent bias is against 1SBM. OilemFirchen Feb 2016 #337

The same way a randomly selected jury pool from the antebellum south... DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #297

so...every white person here is racist? noiretextatique Feb 2016 #303

I would never suggest every white person here is racist. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #306

so only the 85% who supporter sanders are racist? you may have a point noiretextatique Feb 2016 #310

Respectfully, that isn't what I am suggesting. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #313

and i respectfully disagree noiretextatique Feb 2016 #315

That is not what I am suggesting DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #319

He is not a "defendant"...he's a poster noiretextatique Feb 2016 #339

Of course I would... Fairness is a hill I would die on. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #340

okay noiretextatique Feb 2016 #379

The race of the poster is ancillary. The candidate he or she supports is salient. DemocratSinceBirth Feb 2016 #380

perhaps it is the bullshit posters noiretextatique Feb 2016 #389
