I was the lone dissenting opinion on a jury.

Hmm. I'm trying to be impartial. I wont mention the thread/post, but the jurors that just served will probably know. I guess I'm just a bad juror...the response that was voted 5-1 to be deleted wasn't nasty or rude. Just stupid and wrong. Is our role here really to filter out the stupid and the wrong, or can we use them as examples to help teach others how stupid and wrong they are?
As I posted in my jury explanation, if I deleted every post I disagreed with I'd have little left to read here on DU.16

"This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate."
IMHO, opposition to gay marriage is (at a minimum) insensitive. I think the vote to hide was justified.
Furthermore, opposition to gay marriage is a DU Terms of Service violation. I have revoked his posting privileges.
ON EDIT: I should have added that I also think your choice is legitimate as well. Reluctance to censor vile opposing viewpoints is completely appropriate. You did well.

That made me snort my bring it on home cup of coffee all over the keyboard.
I bet he actually thinks that too.

That false belief will come back to bite you one day. Don't say you weren't warned.

I just don't post on hot button issues like that. I've been in good standing for years now.

Based upon the purpose of one's mole (as opposed with being one's troll), that's usually the best course of action.
<<Skins has never heard a complaint about.

It couldn't be avoided. I was drinking and .... well, you get the idea.

At some point I will flame out too. When I do I will post it all here cause DU cannot bear to show a dissenting opinion. That way the lurkers can get the low down here and realize they've been talking to me all along.
My goal now is to see the agony and tears when they lose 2012...

My God, is there ANYTHING too trivial for these DUmbasses to use as an excuse to say "Look at MEEEE!"
Mommy! mommy! I made a poooop.

Reading Charlie's DUFUs I am not sure there will be a DU left after DUmmiegeddon.

I know it is a privately owned site that skins can do with as he pleases but just notice the authoritarian tone.
Anyone doubt that if the left had full control any dissenting thought would lead you to the gulag?
Just like what always happens when leftists take over a country.
Freedom of thought and speech are outlawed and those guilty of violating that are sent away or killed outright.

We're free here to support gay marriage, or oppose it, or settle on the civil union compromise.
Unless, hmmm, do you (insert favorite derogatory label here) running CC have a Terms of Service wherein everyone marches lockstep. :tongue: :rotf:
I cannot believe WE get labeled as ignorant and narrowminded when the ****ing pot is boiling over there!
And, word of warning to the DUmmie who claimed it isn't a black and white issue: you're on the watch list for suspected racist tendencies now.
PS: BTW, when I read the thread title, I thought Atman had, oh I dunno, actually done something useful and sat on a real jury. So stupid of me. :thatsright:

WOW! the thread in question was the thread on The Salvation Army and they voted to hide the thread. How embarrassing.

You're not the only one.
Yeah, another Salvation Army thread where they pat each other on the back for not dropping a spare quarter into the kettle. What heroes they are. Salt O' the earth, I tell you.

One can be reluctant to censor an opposing view point as long as one doesn't have an opposing view point.
I guess in the bizzaro world that is DU, that makes complete sense.

Yes, technically, but they are very, ahh, 'Flexible' in applying that rule. Opposition to gay marriage/"rights", advocating for the formation or support of a third party, and expressions of intolerance toward the religion, ethnicity, or cultural horrors of anyone overseas who really truly hates America and wants to kill Americans are the most reliable ways to get kicked off the island.

Du has a politburo! Probably trying to be ahead of the curve in mirroring the greatest wet dream of the big 0 who told 60 minutes others are standing in the way of his being able to "CREATE the country he wants" (paraphrase). I don't know why they ever thought DU3 would work. It's just nuts!

We took quite a haul to the Salvation Army this morning; were it not for wanting the tax writeoff I'd've donated the loot in one of their names. :-)

Knowing little of the Salvation Army except that they feed the hungry, are believers in Jesus but will feed all regardless of faith, have stores for the poor or even the wealthy to shop in for clothing, furniture or shoes for the kids, hire the handi capped, train them and enrich their lives.
So is this dispute about their not hiring healthy able body's that are Gay ??????
Funny that when I applied for a job I was never asked my sexual preference, for all the employer knew I could have been a FLAMER Lesbian, wild as a shit house rat, different partner every night.
So what is the problem the Gays have now, these idiots need to study up on how woman had to fight for the right to vote. Equal pay for equal work, Louisiana had the Napoleonic law up into the 1970' s men had the right to sell wives property without their knowledge.
As you can see I have little sympathy with the Gay community, Sex preference is no reason to expect better treatment then others. Hell if I owned a business and only hired red headed workers, would I be raciest ???
