Desertdawg Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 I have yet to ever be summoned to jury duty... seriously. I guess I'm lucky :dunno: I'll be sure to drop your name in the box when I'm there next month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewstein Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 A jury is made up of 12 people too stupid to get out of jury duty. And people wonder why our Judicial system sucks It's always amazing to me that the same people who will be out waving a flag and telling everyone how patriotic they are will do anything within their power to get out of jury duty. It sucks for a lot of other reasons. You're also terrible at problem solving. Figure out how to not have jury duty be a huge ass waste of my time and I'll go. But I am not Chinese so my time is worth a lot more than $12 a day. I also pay more than you in taxes so in effect I contribute to the country more.

Eddie44 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I'm an advocate of professional juries. It would speed up trials because there wouldn't be all the jury selection or instruction. Thereby it would help unclog our courts. In LE juries are known as 12 reasonable idiots. BTW, you once told me income should not be the measure of a man. Likewise how much you pay in taxes has nothing to do with your contribution to this country. I believe 23 yrs of LE outweighs your few years of hotel management.

I will NEVER have as much money as you Drew, but I have contributed and will contribute more to this country than you ever will. And I'm no where near as big a d!ck as you can be some times. BTW, that Chinese comment was way uncalled for...and I'm not even Chinese. I think you have a very skewed view on just about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstrutt Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I've never been called for Jury Duty and hope I never am. I would go for sure but somehow don't like the idea of someones future or fate resting on my decision. What if I was wrong and the charged was innocent or wrong and the charged was guilty? But I would go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as long as it doesn't inconvenience you then you'll contribute to our community, since weekdays are obviously a problem for you then what do you suggest, how about spending your weekend sitting in court??? I'm not even going to touch the racist comment, but I would ask that you refrain from any more remarks like that in the future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
