ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Calls a DU member a "Lying Asshole and Right Wing Troll" in response to a correction by a DU Admin? Can't seem to learn a simple lesson about basic civility when you don't agree with someone.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Mar 27, 2015, 04:52 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Agree with EM. Obvious troll is obvious. Among other things.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Too much tolerance of right wing trolls here...sometimes you have to call an asshole an asshole.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: That would probably be because some of those gungeon folk are lying assholes and right-wing trolls. We have evidence for it from some gun fetishist site where they talk about how they troll this site despise hating liberals. How does the gungeon react? They aren't bothered at all. What pisses them off is that liberals talk about it. That is evidence the entire group is a troll infestation.
