I've learned long ago: Don't do it alone. Have yourself a witness. I'm telling you now that the cops are a bunch of zealots. You didn't listen to sound advice, so here's your sentence. And off the jury duty I go. I see things outside the box

#1 \| 1102 days ago kteacher (+)	Yes......but the summons better not ask for me till summer. I actually want to be on a jury. I've been in a room waiting to be called and on-call -------but have never been questioned to be on a jury. I think I'd be good. I'm pretty fair (most of the time). I'm fair

#3 \| 1102 days ago MartinTide (+)	I'm thorough like hell. I think I would make a good juror because I will look at everything most likely 6 times before giving my response. It's a curse most of the time, but I know I'll make the right choice. I don't believe just by my looks, that I would ever actually get on one. I guess it depends on the trial, but I don't think a big hispanic punk rocker will get one. Well I look hispanic anyway. lol I'm thorough

Both criminal, Extremely educational. Thanks Allen....both for the compliment, and for your service to the community to which you live. It's good to know that in some communities lawyers have no choice but to take people that are able to think. Personally, I regard the establishment of our justice system to be enlightened for the time upon which it was implemented. There are weaknesses, both considering the human condition and various situations that arise in the process. Even so, the foundation is there. Unfortunately (a word that I think has become my trademark 'oh shyte, here he goes again' word), I've studied and observed how the manipulation of the black and white letter of the law has become a tool for administration by officers of the courts and fetters the essence of justice that the jury and judges were charged to ensure which is now more oft times a means for "misconduct" than being able to apply the law to the situation in question. IMNSHO (in this case), it is my belief that a jury's duty is to ensure justice with the consideration of their deduction of the case itself and with the essence of humanity, whilst a judge is supposed to be the facilitator of justice and sword of the people to maintain the integrity of judicial and constitutional intent should one of the mechanisms fail. It makes me sick to my stomach every time I read that a judge was "forced" to apply injustice because the black and white letter of the law says "he has no choice" when the established law didn't consider the specific situation. A judge, and jury especially were established and charged with analyzing the situation as the law applies to such so justice will prevail. Besides, it would probably be fun watching me being pulled from the jury box and getting thrown in jail--kicking and screaming as I was being pulled from the courtroom quoting Jefferson, Madison, and Henry....LOL!

#17 \| 1101 days ago RichyMcWiggleSr (+)	I doubt it! Because most of the people I've talked to who went on jury duty came back talking about the retards they had to sit on it with .... and I don't do well around stupid people! Not saying "stupid people go to jury duty" ... just pointing out the high probability that I'll be stuck on a jury with stupid people.

#18 \| 1101 days ago coyotedances (+)	I would be fair, but I would not like to see the judge give someone the death penalty based on my vote. I think if I would were called for a case where the prosecution was asking for the death penalty I would be excused by the defense atty I'm fair

( I'm not as Liberal as some would like to portray me as)...... A Proponderance of evidence, still can lead people to the wrong decision. All a mouthpiece needs is to put doubt in one jurors mind, and there goes another week. It amazes me that in the court of law, the defendant can't have his record brought up, the complaintant has his address, job info and past record read in court amoungst the defendants family and friends, thus leading to threats and witness tampering. I have been to court on 7 occassions regarding murder cases. All my info was read and I was made to be the one that didn't see the shooting even though I was there! I've had my amount of threats though, but I wait for them to leave court, and let them see me pick up both of my weapons that are secured in the court house, and smile while I walk throug them.

Therefore, you don't build a case one a good for nothing bigot, that has wrongly imprisoned the people you have a hatred for, simple.

You know Norse, I believe that alot of people should read that and the southern poverty law project. And all about those that have proven innocent but was executed in texas before bush made president. Yet he heard of it and FRIED them anyway. No human compassion means no life left for humans to sacrifice. Check it: http://www.ccadp.org/serialpresident.htm
