Look,
Gil has typed out some of the dumbest posts I've ever read on this site...
Think about that for a second - Based on that fact alone - I was being at least gentle

Secondly
You'll notice in another thread he admits he sat on a jury...
In order to get selected you have to be about an 80 IQ
Even average intelligence individuals get booted from jury selection almost immediately

:dunce:
Sorry if most of my post go over your head.

Just saying a person sitting on a jury has an 80 IQ, to me shows dishonesty. I could have easily walked away from jury duty with some BS story. Saw a lot of people BS their way out of the courthouse. Ended up serving with a school teacher, couple IT peeps, truck body painter, golf pro, fast food worker, substance abuse counselor. Good cross-section of Ramsey County, MN. I don't think any were too smart to think they were better than a person with an 80 IQ.
Don't play the pity card Gil...
Suck it up Eeyore...

Ones IQ isn't about being a "better or worse" person... it's about stupid
One of my adorable step daughters is the sweetest most adorable lovable girl anyone could ever meet
and she's as dumb as a can of tuna

There's no shame in it...
She's wonderful

Again, your cross section of Ramsey County is charming like so many of your posts but also irrelevant...
and if you're interested you should spend a few minutes with what kalm calls "a good Lawyer"
have a real honest talk about what they're looking for in jury selection

No pity here, just calling out a smug prick a smug prick.

I work with lawyers and judges every day, from all over the country. Many of them are good lawyers.

Eeyore,
Everybody knows I'm a smug prick, calling me out for it doesn't really accomplish anything
Identifying that YOU are kind of stupid will actually help people on here work with you

He didn't want to be there. He didn't talk to anyone, pissed the judge off a few times. Always late. Nothing like the ones I've met on CS.com.

Gil,
for years around here I said nothing about your stupid posts
I was fine just letting them go... Then a while back you got after me on something
(I don't remember what it was) But I have to admit it surprised me that you went after me

At that point I was like: Okay... gloves off regarding stupid Gil
and I started pointing out your irrelevant dumb posts

Honestly
I'd prefer going back to just ignoring your endlessly peripheral extraneous posts
You successfully marginalize yourself - no assistance needed here

:coffee:

So, Gil
I apologize for antagonizing you and making fun of you
please accept this apology because it really is genuine - I wish to no longer rudely engage you
and I would agree that any hardship between us would be largely my fault not yours

:nod:

I apologize to you

I would think there's a mix of different cognitive levels on any jury.

If you're the "favorite" in a trial and appear to have the better case I'd think you don't want easily-manipulated ding-dongs or people who might have any emotional investment in the trial.

The underdogs probably don't want a sharp jury. So with both sides selecting the jury you'd get a mix, am I wrong?

I'll deal with you later

Which is always an honor and a challenge

Took 2 days for us to get from 3 votes not guilty to 12. Phone records and eye witness accounts matched the defendants testimony better. The key witness was in the front seat of the car and said he didn't see the driver get shot in the side of the head, from the back seat, while reaching under the front seat for some weed.

You get tired of sitting in a small room with 12 people, no phones, no outside contact, no TV in the hotel rooms.
