28. Results of the jury.

And, while not a popular thing to say, I'm afraid that there are people who will try to capitalize on the opportunity to politicize this thing to fit their agenda.

Subject = At the risk of a banned post

Alerter comments: Accusing people who don't like the NRA of being "giddy that there has been a mass shooting" is a sick insult to the majority of DUers. He knows the post is hide worthy, and even says so in the title of his post.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: Agree with Alerter. This poster is a total ass.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I think it's a poor post, but I would leave it...just posting something dumb is not a violation. There is name calling everyday on DU. Poor communication alerts me to the content of the post and the poster's mind. It would have been better if there was a proposed set of reasonable measures as mentioned.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I hate guns but I don't think this is a hide-worthy post. I've seen worse!
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: Gun nut shithead says what?
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: gun nut logic, deserves a hide.


Gunfights between members on this board make DU suck.

I just assume that a few in the gun control crowd alert on everything they disagree with. I keep that in mind when I post about guns.

In the long run, the biggest threat to a reasonable and legitimate right to keep and bear arms is Wayne LaPierre.

Their membership numbers. Besides, 3m is vastly outnu.bered by the actual population of the nation.

I guess you are saying that we divide up those 3 million people between the 309 million people in the United States (accd. to Wikipedia, as of 2010) - each person would be responsible for fucking 1.006% of an NRA member.

Maybe it would be easier just to tell them to go fuck themselves. The math is easier.
