JURY DUTY

I think being high on the right stuff could help me sort out through the issues.

My attitude is that anybody on trial is guilty - of something. Better that a hundred innocent go to jail than one guilty person go free. :hippy:

Dude how can you say that? You would seriously rather have one hundred innocent human beings guilty of no crime go to jail instead of one guilty person going free? That is fucked up. The guilty person might have been arrested for posession. And you would rather 100 people who are innocent go to jail than let him free? I hope if i am ever on trial that you are not on jury duty. INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY.

On a side note i think Jury Duty would be really fun. You would get to see how the legal system works and be able to participate in it.

That is extremely fucked up, I hope you are seriously blazed or joking.

Anyways, my dad got out of jury duty cause he said he cant speak english, which he cant lol. I also heard you can get out by saying ure a racist.

So nah, I'd save the tokin for afterward, plus you're there help decide someones fate. I know I wouldn't want a stoned jury deciding was is best for me.

I bet they would all be spaced out and shit. Then when it comes time to decide...the first thing someone says is "I bet a bag of weed he will get ____ years"

I got this shit for my first time in May. Pretty slim chance I will be picked, since I'm young, but we'll see.

And to the 'everyone is guilty' idiot:

"It's not what you know, it's what you can prove".

Hmm..didn't think I'd get so many negative responses.. :cool:


But yea I understand it's someone's life on the line but I mean I think a nice fat blunt beforehand would put my head in the right spot to really think critically about the case.. If I wasn't high it would be hard for me to see past having to waste my time serving

I went once, couldn't smoke during obviously but id smoke tons beforehand. How the hell else am I supposed to just sit there for all those hours?

I doubt me using marijuana would impact my ability to make rational decisions. On the other hand if I was all bitchy each day from not smoking THAT would probably impair my judgment.

Yea, that's pretty messed up. Your logic might make sense, but let's focus on your first statement:

"My attitude is that anybody on trial is guilty - of something."

That's not correct, innocent people can be charged. Your statement claims that EVERY SINGLE person who goes to court is guilty of something (I'm guessing you came to this idea using abduction logic). However, I can show you examples of where this is not true. So it's false.

So go take your substandard philosophical babble somewhere else please, it's very disrupting of the topic at hand. Oh, and:

"Better that a hundred innocent go to jail than one guilty person go free. :hippy:"

The hippies would be saying the exact opposite of that statement... that's kind of insulting. This is a cannabis forum after all...

Jury duty is a serious responsibility.
I wouldn't even sit on a jury with cold medicine in my system.
Grow up.
