Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Though the post responded to was ugly, the rules are pretty clear that this is NOT the way to address the ugly post. Sorry⦠I'm angry over how the conversation continues from that camp, but we should all know how to respond to that ugly stuff by now. They bait people to do exactly what you're being called on. Please learn from this. There is a better way to stand up to ugliness.
