Yes, everyone should be informed of their power. I haven’t been sent a summons since I learned about it, which is kinda shitty
My brother in Christ, you made it your username. Unless you have incredible opsec it's unlikely you'll get selected again ever.
I mean as much as feds might be watching, I doubt that's enough for your local courthouse to take you off the list
I think it's the opposite. The feds are almost certainly not looking that closely at users on "Hexagonal Bear Network" to dox them on the off chance they get selected for jury duty.
But if somehow they did manage to find out about this and linked your identity to your account, then you can bet your ass you'd never serve on a jury again in your life.
Might not be, but with how easy it is to sell data I seriously doubt they wouldn't take the opportunity to tilt the courts in some way or another, especially since that is one "legitimate" way to do it.
Peter, man, know what I'd do if I had a million bucks?
yea, me too
I don’t think most people are judging cases based on what is technically legal and what is not.
I have to disagree with you on that, at least when it comes to ways the criminal justice system constantly fucks over marginalized people with extreme prejudice.
In general, the war on drugs is massively unpopular yet people are still being sent to prison for non-violent drug crimes.
Also, even in the deepest red states, the support for legal abortions is at a minimum of 35%. That's West Virginia, most red states are in the mid to high 40s on that. To hang a jury, it only takes one juror to vote not guilty in the face of an otherwise unanimous decision to convict. Given a random jury selection process, we'd only need 8.3% (1/12th) of potential jurors to refuse to convict in order to ensure a guilty verdict on abortion is almost never unanimous. Yet people are being sent to prison for abortions and even miscarriages right now. The only way that could be the case is if jurors are voting based on whether the law as written was broken instead of whether the defendant deserves to go to prison.
