Have you ever had Federal Jury Duty before?

[Demo24]

Because I don't want to get paid by the tax payer, but then I realized I could just burn the check that they give me.

So you'd rather just give the government money? 😵 Your logic, like always, is really failing here.


I have this feeling your parents believe you to be certifiably insane and are keeping you at home to keep an eye on you.

If Op were ever on one of my juries I'd probably throw him through a courthouse window.

Fixed.

That means the government would issue you a check -- you wouldn't be writing a check. It wouldn't be the IRS that issues the check. Oh, and BTW - if you burn the check, the funds will probably be declared "unclaimed" after a while, which means that a record will have to be kept and maintained for some period of time, so that the funds can be claimed by you (or, under certain circumstances, others entitled to your money). Thus... more taxpayer money being used to maintain that credit balance. It would certainly be less burdensome (and therefore costly) for the government if you were to just cash the check, as opposed to destroying the check.

We have plenty of election workers that don't want to be paid for working. The law says they must be paid. Therefore, we issue a check. They fail to cash the check. We have to maintain lists of people, and funds credited to them, which is substantially more costly for us than if they just cashed the checks in the first place.

I love how the guy's name is Anarchist420 but he needs mommy and daddy's permission to skip jury duty.

This is easy. Wear a shirt with the anarchy symbol. Answer any questions, about anything, with your usual asinine responses.

Example: do you understand what I'm asking you?
Response: I do not acknowledge your authority, because the Constitution is an illegal document, and.......

At the very least, I bet you'll be excused. And in the best case scenario, they'll call in the nice friendly men in white coats to escort you to someplace safe.

All I know is that the OP is fucking stupid.

I'm pretty sure that is all we do know for sure in this thread.

So you're 18 and live with your parents? Aren't anarchists supposedly all about self-sufficiency? Or do you rationalize your hypocrisy by "not buying into the system", even though it's that same system spoon-feeding you food via your parents? 🙄

Just be yourself. You'll be disqualified in an instant and both the prosecution and defendant will thank you for it.

Anarchism is generally defined as the political philosophy opposing authority in the conduct of human relations.

Proponents of anarchism (known as "anarchists") advocate stateless societies based on non-hierarchical voluntary associations.

I'm what my profile says I am and I'm going to be moving out when my dad retires in a year. It took me an extra year and a half to graduate college (I did take a semester off and I took a light load a few semesters and failed 2 courses. However, I got one of the highest grades in my College Algebra Class although I took PreCalc in my freshman year and got a decent grade in it after barely passing it in the 12th Grade. If you think I'm dumb, you should've seen the students who couldn't even do college algebra). So I haven't even had a degree a full year now. I volunteer and do a few things around the house.

Anyway, I'm just going to write a letter to them that says I have a disability on the Austitic Spectrum (which I do) and that it causes me to be impatient while waiting. That should be enough so that I don't have to worry about getting paid.

you do huh?

could you link to the austitic spectrum?

i've never heard of it.


unless you mean autism spectrum.

In which case.. you're living on the government teat... so stop pretending to be an anarchist...

 

[FoBoT]

i have never actually gone in for jury duty
once when i was in the navy i got it deferred or whatever because i was out to sea
then i think another time i had to call a phone number every day that week and it was a message saying they didn't need me

Good, you're being defensive. Shows at some level you know how fucked up you are.

Frankly I couldn't give two shits about your math grades. Plenty of mathematical savants out there who can barely tie their shoes, and you're not even one of them. Getting a "decent" grade in a class you took twice is nothing to brag about. I'm sure there are people dumber than you. That's not saying much.

You're wrong as I'm not living on the government teat other than using public roads and went to public schools; my father's a physician FFS.
