This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
This person already had a post hidden for making this assertion a few minutes ago http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=5739703 and then ran to a protected group to make the same nasty assertion about DUers again. Making the assertion about DUers without evidence that they are in a hate group (as SPLC calls MRA's hate groups) is bad enough. In the specific case she is asserting, Grayson is paying $600/mo per child in child support and $10,000 a month for their housing. That doesn't come close to being a deadbeat dad by any stretch of the imagination. If you are going to accuse DUers of being in a hate group, you better be 100% correct. Doing it like this without proof and when in fact you are wrong, is reckless and irresponsible.
JURY RESULTS
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Oct 31, 2014, 10:40 AM, and the Jury voted 5-2 to HIDE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I have no earthly idea what this is all about, and I will say that I don't like the term "MRA" or "misogynist" or whatever being used as invective to merely silence or shame someone who disagrees with you (anymore than I like using the word "feminist" as an insult or pejorative). That said, however, this is a group, not a forum (as DU defines it), and I think more leeway should be allowed in protected groups (and yes, this added leeway must go for the Men's Group or the BOG or any other protected group).
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Unfounded and unproven accusation against a DUer and against a person who IS taking care of his kids and is NOT a deadbeat dad, as the alerter stated.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: ID10T
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
