16th Nat'l NT Rally - Jun 17-20, 2026 - Spearfish, SD

[Coyote Chris]

I am VERY sorry to say I"m out. Got a "Jury Duty" letter in the mail today....I'm on call all of June.

But the last time I went in for a jury selection and when it was over they told us we had done out duty and were done. If that happens I'll pack quick and motor toward Spearfish!

I was lucky. Ever since a certain high profile murder trial of a sports legend, I completely lost faith in the jury system, but since I worked for a police agency, no one would ever pick me anyway. I was also soured on our judicial system when I was supoened to appear in court testifying for the State of WA that Radars actually worked. The only reason I was ordered to appear was that the blankety blank defense attourney hoped I wouldnt show up so he could get his scumbag client off. When I hit 65, in the state of wa, I didnt need a medical exemption letter to get out of this travesty of justice. I fully support Archy Bunker's assessment of who is actually on juries.

I have been summoned serveral times over the years for jury duty. I have yet to be selected. During the screening process as soon as they find out that you are/were a LEO, you are out. Even for civil cases the defendant's lawyer wants no part of you.

Same same....I'm way to conservative to be chosen. All I have to do is answer one question with "Hang the Bast*****" and suddenly I'm a pariah On the other hand that sweet compensation of $19.00 a day is hard to pass up.... LOL

I had a plan. If I was put on the stand to be questioned as a potential jury member, and a lawyer asked me if I could be impartial...I would have said, "We wouldnt have arrested the guy if he wasn't guilty!" LOL!
