@meena That's too often true, but I still believe that #jurynullification can be used for great justice, and when I AM permitted to serve on juries where it's obvious that the accused is being persecuted for shit I could get away with doing because I'm white, I try to convince the jury to acquit because it's the right thing to do.
I tend not to survive voir dire very often, though.

@starbreaker it took me a while to figure out that "judged by a jury of their peers" is some kind of BS that just means white folks get away with anything.
