I have been on 2 jurys and did not discuss it with anyone until after it was over.  If you talked about it with all of your friends and family on a daily basis, I'll have to go with you being the ignorant one!  Next time do us all a favor and just decline jury duty.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2008 12:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Juror Kicked Off Trial After Asking Facebook Friends for Help]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/11/26/juror-kicked-off-trial-after-asking-facebook-friends-for-help/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/11/26/juror-kicked-off-trial-after-asking-facebook-friends-for-help/</guid><description><![CDATA[What an idiot. I have been on a jury and didn't discuss it with anyone.Somebody like that must have a problem making a decision in everyday life.One thing that did irritate me on a jury was having to leave the room all the time because the defense was trying to keep information from the jury so they had to argue it. I want to know everything about this person and their past record,everything so I can make an informed decision.Keeping things from the jury is wrong. Otherwise how can you make the right decision.I want to know if they have a past record of drunk driving,rape,murder,child molestation,robbery,carjacking or whatever.The best predictor of future behavior is past behaviour.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sue]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 30th 2008 1:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Juror Kicked Off Trial After Asking Facebook Friends for Help]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/11/26/juror-kicked-off-trial-after-asking-facebook-friends-for-help/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/11/26/juror-kicked-off-trial-after-asking-facebook-friends-for-help/</guid><description><![CDATA[This has NOTHING to do with maturity people.

Ignorance is not an excuse, in this case. (In my opinion- ignorance isnt an excuse in any situation.) Its my job to educate myself about decisions I intend to make, particularly when that decision is not time sensitive, as was the case here.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kate]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 1st 2008 5:02PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
