Got brutally rejected from Jury Duty today [View All]

guess it was my honest answer to the question about drug policy in this country. (waste of resources - time to try something else - guess the prosecuter didn't like the idea of reducing his workload???:evilgrin:)

It was a possession w/ intent to sell meth and pot, plus a convoluted sounding charge of what I took to be pulling a knife on the cop or cops that were involved.

Same courtroom, same judge, same bailiff, same defence attorney as my last time (got chosen for that one) which was a meth possesion case as well. Gave the same answer then and they still took me. We found guilty on that one.

Always interesting. Lots more folks getting excused on questions of having connection to these kinds of crimes than 2 years ago, and lots of questions about being able to tell the difference between reality and tv shows - they seemed especially to be displeased with something called CSI? (I don't have tv, but assume it is making "experts" of the general public and causing real problems for the courts)
