Also, if you get called and can't avoid it, during questioning you can just state that you have no faith in the legal system and explain why, stating that your judgment was likely skewed for life as a result. The judge would probably dismiss you for cause.



I saw a lady do this same thing while I was at jury duty once. She said that she has no faith in the system because she was robbed several times and the police did nothing and when the guy was caught he was let off. The judge kept pressing her to be fair and only decide on the facts present. She kept pushing back, so the judge assigned her to a civil case instead of criminal.

Yardsale, I'd want you on my jury if I was being tried. ...

This is going to sound like a corny slogan, but do it for justice. Play the odds and disarm. Put yourself under their mercy for the afternoon, and hope you get your chance to do your civic duty.

You, probably more than anyone else in the room, will actually try someone fairly. If he's guilty of mens rea and a malum en se act, hang him. If he isn't, hang the jury.

Do it for justice.

Let's say, hypothetically, I were to receive a jury summons from the 2nd Judicial District Court of Nevada. The same court that upheld my obstructing conviction, the same court that has a written policy and practice of depriving people of their 2nd and 4th amendment rights in violation of state pre-emption law.

Should I ignore it? Should I respond and attend, OC? Should I respond and attend without carrying and attempt to fly under the radar and get seated on a jury?

I would fly under the radar and hope to get seated and if it is another anti-constitutional arrest....

JURY NULLIFICATION!!!

BUT most likely your prior experience will come out during questioning (have you ever been party to a trial? If yes; __ defendant ___ witness...)
