WWAWD Jury Duty

[Ace Orenstein]

It's only for upper class educated white people.

I got a jury duty notice once but they spelled my last name wrong on it so I tossed the letter. Nothing since then.

 

[Udders]

I've done it a couple times, actually seated once. Everyone always shits on it but it's a very interesting experience and you have an opportunity to right a wrong (either way it goes) involving real stakes. I'd recommend the experience at least once.

The last time I went in was a case involving three niggers who robbed a store and ended up killing the owner, a father with kids. I wish I ended up on that jury but it filled shortly before I was up.

The shutdown when covid started got me out of jury duty.

 

[satanssockpuppet]

Fuck jury duty. I've had to go four times, never got chosen though. The last time, they treated everyone like total shit the entire time, then, after six and a half hours of just sitting there, the asshole judge calls everyone in and proceeds to drone on and on for almost two hours about civic duty and the jury system and blah blah blah. He was obviously just fucking with everyone and keeping us there for sheer spite.

I got another summons after that, and I just replied that I'd already served enough, that was it for me, I wasn't doing it again, and asked them to not contact me again. So far, so good.

It's a health department case, you really think the Puerto Rican with birdseed in his pocket is gonna side with us? Dismiss him.

Voir dire was gay the one time I did it. I probably will just not show up next time.

 

[DMAN]

One and only time I went, almost got put on the trial but they made us fill out a paper asking questions like "are you related to any police?" I put down yes, disqualified me. Try to come up with an excuse that one of the kike lawyers will call you "biased."

Tell them you love guns, I’ve been three times it’s fucking awful. Prob just jinxed myself

NEVER have to do jury duty. One of the perks of being a loser.

 

[Stent]

Dress and talk like you're the Malcolm X of crows.

American laws were made by the human for the benefit of the human. America's laws are not the crow's law.

I'm at jury duty for the first time in 16 years.

Last time I had jury duty was the day or so after Kramer had his moment on stage.

I purposely didn't shave and dressed like a bum to lower the possiblity of me getting selected, but forgot I live in Florida.

There's a guy wearing overalls and several others wearing hats with fish hooks on the bill.

So I'm pretty sure I'll get selected

They mailed me a jury summons once and I ignored it completely. I gave no response whatsoever and I never got shit for it. Pussy ass legal system.

 

[Lamont & Tonelli]

What kind of trial? I was on the jury for a murder, that was a really interesting week.

 

[Smeckler's Powder]

I'll admit the judge almost made me laugh when I explained one of the attempted murder charges a relative got a few years ago he said, and I quote, "yeah that's a difficult one." and I thought of Jim saying "it's a tough one, man."

You should have asked him if he knows Owen A

 

[Smeckler's Powder]

I got send a summons or whatever a couple weeks ago. I regret filling it out, I don't know if I'll be able to wake up that early. If it was a noon, I'd love to go. You hope that you get some sort of drug case that you can just say "not guilty" about, or some other bullshit law.

Plus you apparently get blow at the end? @aRTie02150 ?

 

[DMAN]

Watch me get out of my summons: I do hereby declare myself a fanatical O&A Pest who denounces the United States and does hereby declare himself an instrument of The Virus 197 XM 202. YOUR MOM'S BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That sucks, brothaman. If you’re chosen blurt out inoffensive nonsense as an act of petty revenge. ‘The clown stole my shoes!’

If you're in the US just imply jury nullification its really not that hard. You can't be held accountable or responsible for the result you give as a juror. You also are not required to provide the justification for your verdict. This is not explained to you by anyone during the process for obvious reasons. As a logical entailment of those facts, you are legally justified to rule any way you want regardless of the law. If you feel like a law is unjust you can rule however you want. Telling people about this is a bit of a grey area if you are near a courthouse as there have been first amendment cases won and lost with people passing out literature. There is also a small (albeit non-zero) chance if you "hurrr durrr don't selects me here is the Wikipedia article on jury nullification" a judge will hold you in contempt. That's the same as being disruptive in general.

During voir dire (jury selection process), the attorney will hint at this with various questions. Something to the effect of "would you follow the evidence or would your feelings influence your decisions". Something that hints at ruling in a way that isn't per the law. Just respond that if you feel a law is unjust your moral principles would not allow you to vote that way or some shit. No lawyer would ever select you.

I’ve never been summoned but I intend to conceal my true beliefs and nullify the fuck out of anything I disagree with. Or if it’s something legit like murder I’ll just cause a hung jury and they can try it again. Fuck em.

I came on here hoping to read 50/50 reviews about people serving jury duty


...utterly shocked at all the negatives here
