Seriously tho I believe its a great system the whole jury thing and I would be honored to serve on a jury but I am the sole proprietor for my company and with the way things are today Im fighting to keep my head above water as it is. Hanging around for a few days mid week to likely be dismissed for some malpractice suit is going to put an extreme burden on my new business.
Although it would give me an excuse to buy the purple lightning shirt @Chinatown recommended.Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
This is bad karma, talking about this. Sure as heck, we'll all get called. People been bitxxin' about jury duty for ever. Generally, they prey on the elderly or retired, was told, obtained through drivers license. I was called about 10 years ago in Milwaukee, twice, 1st time went to trial, and I found it incredibly interesting. We fried this punk who was clearly guilty, that felt kind of good, 2nd time was dismissed. I got called again last year for my little Colorado town, said I had other things going on,( allowed 1) and never heard back. If I get called again, I'm going to lay it on the line, I think our current system stinks, and easily manipulated, and want no part of it. I may get arrested or dismissed.

I think the whole jury thing is the dumbest idea on the planet. You seriously want to be judged by your peers? The actual public?!
Let me remind you the “public” who voted to defund the police, think 45 genders isn’t enough, is the reason we have warning labels on everything, will determine the fate of the individual.
I once had someone tell me semi trucks should be at 45mph limit because at 65mph a semi truck is faster than a car at 65mph because it has bigger tires. Also when I tell this story to people they look at me like they agree and then I have to go into 5 minutes of how a bicycle works when they were a kid to try and get them to see the light.201, RockinChair, Magoo1968 and 4 others Thank this.
