I hate jury duty.
I work second shift, so I'm not entitled to jury pay. A good waste of a day If you ask me.
That was my view for many years until I read Vin Supryniwicz's book Send In The Waco Killers.
There's a chapter there that makes an excellent point: The jury might be the best way revolt against oppressive laws and regulations. It's the way the common man can go directly against activist judges and socialist legislators.
Read about the unjust trial and acquital of William Penn. It's an outstanding example of how a righteous jury can set right the wrongs of an evil judge and prosecutor.
The guy over at Straight Forward in a Crooked World apparently wrote a response to Western Mass. Man's comment titled "Do your damn duty".
Thanks for the heads up Terry. I appreciate it.
I go to jury duty, put on my happiest face, and nullify. I don't preach; don't discuss' don't rationalize. As a cranky old injineer, I can find a hole in any case. Even civil cases, where I think the litigation is frivolous, I can just vote against any damages. I wish I could get called more often!
You have great blog and this post is good!

I keep quoting these dead white guys for a reason. We seem to be repeating some particularly nasty history, right now.
Its all in the manual they make you read before they download your being into those tiny bodies in those dark wombs.
