MODERATORS
they should just require a randomly selected jury for any ruling and the justices only job should be deciding what to present to jurors
I'm not sure I'd like to trust a random jury to determine the interpretation of laws
I can guarantee a randomly selected jury would do a better job than the current court.
If we're comparing with the current SC everything is an improvement. But if we're going to change things, I would prefer a system that does not rely on easily manipulated, uneducated masses.
Yeah you'd have to buy a dozen RVs instead of just one.
I haven't heard of a lot of jury tampering trials go well. And usually isnt it more of a mafia style "nice family you got there, would be a shame if something happened to it" situation?
