The attorney does not sound very stupid to me. His remarks do show what he
thinks of the jury.



And as a further comment, why would he not think that? Juries are made up of
people who have nothing better to do than watch Oprah. Not only that, but
they actually believe the idiocy spewing from people like Oprah. Anybody
smart enough to actually do something productive for a living either is
excused from jury duty or is excluded by an attorney who does not want
anyone with critical thinking skills on the jury.

The last time I was in a jury pool I told the judge the truth when he asked
whether I would serve on a jury. I told him that no attorney would accept my
presence on a jury because I had an IQ greater than that of a meatloaf
(granted, it is not a lot greater). I said that I had been called for jury
many times and that I had never been allowed to serve on a jury for that
reason. He agreed and excused me, somewhat to the discomfiture of those
already selected to the jury.

The jury is made up of your peers only if you are a complete moron.
