ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Bigoted troll.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Aug 22, 2015, 09:42 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: BlueJazz is being sarcastic. You have to be familiar with Borowitz. He's bouncing off of Borowitz's mockery of the racist nature of the Trump campaign.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The OP is satire, as is the response. Perhaps a sarcasm emoticon is needed on everything?
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I don't think it's a bigoted troll, but one poster who forgot the sarcasm thingy. If not, shame on them.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I think the alerter is sorta missing the point.

IT'S SATIRE!
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: "Liberal Jew news outlets"? Really, BlueJazz??

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

I'm juror #3 - don't think everyone is familiar with Borowitz
