at me thinking the jury system is overused. bonk. sorry I can't stop laughing. So here we are talking about free speech and well somehow that comment was hidden. Well 2 cops are now injured over a shooting I'm not laughing about that. So now I can't comment in that threat. Since when has DU become so sensitive they make Sony look good. So if someone was offended by me stating I've gotten 2 hidden comments in a week and I've been on 3-4 jury's in a week oops. sure on Huffpo you kinda get slammed if you offend someone but since they handed that over to facebook. no problems anymore. on DU .... North Korea has people running scared. So yes on a 3-4 ruling against a post that simply said there's been too many jury alerts of late. That gets hidden in the middle of a discussion about free speech. Sorry some people here are very weird. I must be if I'm posting in this group.. Vent the laughter then I'm off.. this is childsplay. Don't really have time treating the jury system as a joke.
