Scientific Proof That Cats Are Better Than Dogs
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10025237840

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

SPAM of cats in GD, this isn't the lounge as everyone has pointed out. Sure this should be an SOP alert but hosts hands are tied, and they don't take action.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Jul 14, 2014, 07:54 AM, 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: Use ignore or hide thread
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: FFS, GD needs some humor. Leave it! It is absolutely ridiculous and a waste of time calling an alert on this! Grow up!
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Tired of these animal threads. They belong in the Lounge and the Hosts need to do their job or retire.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I don't mind it in GD. 312 views
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is a host issue and it does not violate the rules. Welcome to a 0-7 vote
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It is not this juror's job to enforce the SOP. Trash thread and trash word are your friends.

That is where I would have posted it. But it should have been locked and the poster asked to repost it there, not put to the jury for a Hide. I don't know why this wasn't handled that way.

Still, this is hilarious!
