Jury Duty today

[GimpyPaw]

Orientation done, now we sit around to see which 12 out of 58 will get to sit on a “multiple day trial”.

I have about 0.02% chance of making it on a jury. My personal hero is Pinoche’ because he threw commies out of a helicopter. I would advocate for the death penalty, but I don’t trust the Government with that kind of power. I think vigilante justice is closer to true justice than can be found in the courts.

I should be the foreman!

Fuck - It’s a child molestation case. Jurors are dropping like flies.

put your hands on a child for that should all get a 45 acp back of the head

2000 volts @ 12 amps. Slower than a 45 acp to the back of the head.

Well, not sure how or why, but they picked me to be on the jury. I can't talk about it right now. Trial will last about a week. It's going to be Hell listening to the evidence and testimony. Already had to sit through a scared 11 yr old girl recount an event from 2 years ago.

Damn! Well, you'll do the right thing - keep the other jurors in line.

Last time they called me two black kids had killed and robbed a couple. During jury selection their lawyer asked me if I could be impartial, No, they were caught with the gun and the jewelry they stole, to me it means they are guilty...guy cuts me off, next I know I get sent home and I later learned the kids were found not guilty.

As bad of a charge as this is, everybody gets their day in court. Its one of the foundations of our great republic. Just because you're charged, doesn't mean you actually did the thing (it usually does, but not always). The last thing you want to do is fry an innocent man because what he was charged with disgusts you.
