Hypothetical question, I am going to do jury duty, I then go and tell the judge and every one else I am going to side with the accused and take any advice from the accused what do you think what kind of reaction would I get?

You can say whatever you want.They might just think you’re “off” and weed you out.

Depending on the manner in which you do it…

If you subtly let them know you have a strong prejudice, they’ll tend to not have you on that jury.

If you blatantly tell them you’re not willing to be a fair juror, you may get sternly warned and/or fined and/or thrown in jail for a while for contempt of court.

Getting out of unpleasant jury is something they all know many people try to do. You’re in a competition with the other unwilling jurors too. Judges are smart and have developed their countermeasures. They tend to not put up with disrespect, and are good at spotting character, lies and deceit… and some may also be paranoid and defensive about it.

Being respectful and honestly open about your biases while not omitting that you know there is a legal obligation to serve as an unbiased juror to the best of your ability, seems like a good approach to me. Sometimes just displaying intelligence and free thinking, or unpredictability, may be enough for the lawyers to take you off, because they want to feel they can predict how each juror will decide.

They would simply excuse you and send you home. It is unlikely you would get a chance to talk to the judge.

A charge of contempt of court.

“Ignore the dumb schmuck, he’s a silly trucker!”
Something of that order :D

This is a parable about The trumpster isn’t it? They all know they are above the laws.

Guys, he’s asking if one of us did what Lindsey Graham did when he said he he wouldn’t look at the evidence and would side with the president no matter what. None of us could get away with it.

@Dutchess_III and @YARNLADY got it dead on, a normal citizen wouldn’t and couldn’t do it,but these idiots admit to the world how they see it laws be damned because they are above the law.

Now certain Rep/cons are going to say the whole thing is fake and they don’t care,let’s play by the letter of the law if he is innocent(yeah right) then they can show the world it was a waste of time and money to just admit they won’t listen to witnesses or any evidence just what their orange hair master tells them.

Moscow Mitch and Lindsey Graham may have an interest in your answers.

You would be charged with contempt of court and thrown in prison. This does not apply to Lindsey Graham because Senate impeachment trials do not use voir dire for jury selection. What Graham has said is obviously terrible from the perspective of good governance, but it is perfectly legal. For better or worse, Senate trials are simply not the same as—and do not follow the rules of—ordinary criminal trials.

Lindsey will have to take an oath to set aside politics, and listen to the evidence.
He has already said he won’t.

trump would make you Secretary of State or possibly choose you as his running mate in 2020!!!

TRUMP IS OFFICIALLY IMPEACHED!

Yeah but the senate won’t remove the orange freak, they have already said so.

OH GAWD! THERE WILL BE CARS SET AFIRE, WINDOWS SMASHED, PROPERTY DEFACEMENT…...............
oh, false alarm. That would be the behavior of Democrats.
So, let’s all watch our driving tonight. Be careful of celebrators passed out in the streets.

What the hell are you talking about @Patty_Melt?

Hypothetical reaction to the impeachment. Then I realized, Republicans don’t behave like that over a loss.

I would put you in jail for contempt
