REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
"Half the time she writes like a drunk." Not only over-the-top, but in a protected group.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Feb 20, 2014, 10:23 PM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Especially egregious, since the person he's insulting can't defend herself.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I'm sorry but this appears to be baiting and I can't reward that. If the thread were current, I would likely hide it.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Well, her writing style is idiosyncratic to say the least.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The OP does look like it was written by a drunk. Even protected groups have to tolerate recognition of semiliteracy. There is no way I'm going to hide a complaint about a year old post.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This thread is a year old.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
