I can also pretty well guarantee you I'll never be selected to sit on a jury. No lawyer in their right mind would touch me with a 10 foot pole. I'm opinionated, hard headed, unpredictable and capable of influencing others in a group setting. I also have some natural degree of prejudice because I believe most stereotypes are stereotypes because they are largely true. And worst of all, I'm pissed off to be there.

State power won't work...ever.
Go to any Local Borough Council meeting, and you'll understand why.
I attend the local town meetings, and provide them on a community website: http://www.wrightsvillepa.com

Watch any of them...they're good for a giggle, and a perfect example why we need some kind of umbrella govt......but not a nanny state.

Easy way to avoid jury duty...all you got to do is this: Ask them to explain how "jury nullification" works?
