well, he finally gets a chance to talk to the jury box
and folks… maybe I’d have had a chance, but he did it
he said the line
“are you aware we are in a court of admiralty?”
reader, I tried, I truly did, but I simply could not keep a straight face

Did he go so far as pointing out the gold fringe on the flag? loool
…fringe theory.

Kind of astonished the judge hadn't like, put a stop to the whole farce somehow
Batshit insane legal theories to a potential jury isn't that. Well, it might be, but that's on the lawyers to detect.
our friendly sovcit blanket approves everyone in the jury box, and it’s the prosecutor’s turn
her first strike goes to me, clearly worried I am going to fuck up the whole thing because I think it’s funny
But yes, ok, somebody who knows about SovCits could possibly be sympathetic and willing to hang a jury, so I can see why she struck you.
but man, to be a fly in that courtroom....
but alas, she could not know this, and I lost my chance to be on a sovcit jury
I may never get another

They’re never driving, they’re “traveling”. Something something commerce…
My dude, this ain’t the NBA. You driving.
I might defend myself on my next ticket because how often do you get the chance to pretend to be a lawyer without actually going to law school?
I don’t even know what this court of admiralty business is, this is another level from the insufferable replyguy ancaps i’ve known
On my jury, I remain shocked I was allowed to remain. As the plaintiff’s attorney said afterward “You were an expert witness in the jury.”
lol no.
Them: What is your opinion of LEOs?
Me: I'm quite fond of Sgt. Westlie.
Them: [satisfied by my answer for some reason]
But I find the whole process fascinating and want to be on a jury, dangnabbit!
They don’t want me anywhere NEAR a jury.
Which is sad; in a lot of ways, I'd actually like to serve on a jury at some point.
One of the lawyers asks me, "What is your level of education?" expecting "high school dropout".
Me: Two college degrees.
But when the judge asked for Qs, I have the writer's gift of innocently zeroing in on the one thing the lawyers DON'T want the jury to think about. 🤨
We struck him, for cause
"you came up to the counter and said you had a gun-"
"Excuse me, but can you say for sure you can identify the, uh, individual?"
"Yes. It was you."
