Getting out of jury duty for not being "of sound mind and good moral character" ?

[RCG Trader]

Quote from shortie:

ok, this discussion has been gone long enough.

let me summarize the REAL issues here.

there are at least 3 types of posters:
a white who feels the whites are abused by the system and the blacks
a black who feels the blacks are abused by the system and the whites
a white who feels the blacks are abused by the system and the whites

there are also posters who:
try to avoid jury duty
pretend to never try to avoid jury duty

the things are only complicated by the presence of the stubborn whiny b*tches who feel to be abused by ANY issue

As the only black here, I have to say that I do not feel abused by whites or by the system. I work in an all white town and they love me, my girlfriend is white, and at least half of my friends are white. I am trader in the capitalist system made by whites, I am currently listening to Freewill, by Rush, as I type this. Believe me, I do not feel abused in any way.

Most importantly, within all this whiteness, I am happily a black man to the degree where I wear dreadlocks. Look that up if you do not know what that means.

If only it were true, I'm sure it would assuage your fragile psyche.

Hey, I don't come on here crying about what whites are doing. That would be you whining about how unfair it is to be a white man in America, as if anyone buys that shit

I used to want dread locks when I was a kid. So I grew out my hair. Learned my lesson there! Long hair requires a LOT of maintenance.

Anybody ever checked the "Not being of sound mind and good moral character" box to get out of jury duty ? What was the outcome ?

no but after having lost a week because jury duty, I won't vote again until they stop abusing my right to vote by pillaging the voter list for [....] pick an adjective or noun

Good lord. Insert award answer here, I'm too tired on this one folks. 8 1/2 year bump, for naught?

sometimes I look at timestamps, ...but not nearly as much as I should [evidently?]. Or there's meaning here taht's beyond my interests? or timelimit? Sorry, not sure if this is good or bad for you but it was part of my (can't say that word ouloud?, because not sure even how to spell it) scrum, i think ... and I'm likely not using it (in my life plan) the way it's defined, if u happen to find it on google.

essentially, I'm on a path, ... it's good to be on it (for me) and very busy pursuing it, wherever it leads me. .. and I MUST get there quickly.

Just be glad you did not lose a year on jury duty.

first day, I was litterally spinning (best I could) a toothpick in my mouth, or it felt that way, and indeed I had it there, being obnoxious, trying not to get picked. Didn't get picked, but got put on some list for the rest of the week, so ...it didn't eveen help.
