Jury decisions

Is there a way to appeal a jury decision? Some one made a false claim and I called them a liar and my post was hidden. They said I was beneath their contempt and jury said that post was fine. This seems utterly insane.

1. There isn't, unfortunately. I'm sorry this happened to you. It's happened to me, too.

More than once.

I can't offer any advice other than to try to take it in stride and not personally.
 
The jury members are selected randomly, there could be six great and sympathetic and thoughtful DU members on that jury.
 
Or, there might only be two of them and the other four, well, they might be "different"!

3. Thanks.

Thanks for the quick replies. Shame there's nothing I can do. I'll just have to make sure I'm a good juror if I ever get the chance.

It's pretty obvious.

Skins is busy playing Candy Crush Saga.  Lord Marblehead is caught up in trolling on AdultFriendFinder.com. 

Elad is busy doing...well...whatever it is Elad does.

Anyway, the point is none of them want to actually work to run the site anymore, hence the jury system.   

Sort of like a prison where the guards just get fed up and let the inmates do what they want.

Appeals are for murderers.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

During those two days I was a member of the Taverner primitive's message-board, I read something by the long-ago exiled cross-eyed Iowa primitive, the "HawkeyeX" primitive.

The cross-eyed Iowa primitive lives in Denver, off his wife and rides the social security disability gravy-train (partially deaf); he also "fixes" computers and deals in dope on the side, cash only.

He was the one who organized the primitive "get-together" for the 2008 Democrat National Convention.

Skins and Lord Marblehead EarlG were there at the convention; I dunno why the elusive enigmatic Elad's never taken along, as he wasn't in 2012 either.

The cross-eyed Iowa primitive invited them to meet some of their members, at a bar.

My fellow alum Skins didn't want to bother, and deputized Lord Marblehead to go in his place.

Lord Marblehead showed up for half an hour, and sat on the edge of his chair, much more interested in what was on the big-screen boob-tube than in the primitives congregated around him.  He had a beer, but never finished it.  It was obvious he didn't want to be there, amongst the primitive hoi polloi, the commonplace lower-class lumpenunterprimitiven, and after a few cursory comments, he made up some excuse as to why he had to leave.

The cross-eyed Iowa primitive acted hurt by this, but what did he expect?--Skins and Lord Marblehead are professional Democrats and liberals, after all, with little or no time for their drone "base."

There were some good photographs that came out of that primitive get-together, but I absent-mindedly forgot to collect them.

When I'm on a jury pretty much every thing flies.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

I'm not surprised.  Lord Marblehead looks sort of socially awkward; unkept mop head of hair; unshaven Unibomber beard; big, goofy glasses--one of those frustrated nerd types who gets his only sense of bravado from photoshopping conservative pictures into his Lolz pics of the day.

Which, by the way, are typically filled with transparent bitterness and invective, rather than actual clever humor.
