I'm replying to every other comment it seems but I'm serious about this topic and I have personal experiences on both sides of the law. I've been summoned for jury duty twice, pled guilty or no contest to four crimes. I've also given victim testimony in court.

One time I barely got out of jury duty, good for me because my workplace would have been run by idiots if I were gone and great for my bosses because the place would have been run by idiots if I were gone.

The other time is the reason I responded. I sat in a room full of regular ass white people and one loudmouth that couldn't shut the fuck up. We sat in that room and listened to the idiot say untrue shit about many things. I really only remember him claiming "I don't give a damn" in Gone With the Wind was the first time anyone said a no no word on camera. What a jackass.

So after sitting there, backs to the door, the pigs and lawyer pig come in. They say we got him, we just brought him by and had him look in the window and said these are the people who are going to convict you if you don't take the deal.

Fucking disgusting.
