Survey Time
Wasn't meant to be. I was called to jury duty many years
ago. When we were called into the court room the judge asked the panel a question about our opinions. I said I had an opinion of the subject and he asked what it was. I gave a full and honest explanation and both the defense and prosecuting attorneys jumped to their feet like synchronized jack-in-the-boxes and said "Excused." The question, Do you have an opinion about drugs? My answer was yes and I asked if I could explain my entire opinion. I explained that drugs had been a serious social problem prior to 1910 when controls were applied. Alcohol prohibition created a black-market in alcohol and organized crime. Repeal left organized crime without a product so they moved into drugs. I suggested that all drugs should be made legal for adults and anyone who provided drugs to minors should be executed. BTW, the judge nodded his head. "Peter Duniho" wrote in message ... | "Jim Macklin" wrote in message | news:0LMKf.103006$4l5.39815@dukeread05... | See http://www.fija.org/ more about your rights and duties. | | That's an interesting slant on the whole "jury duty" issue. Hardly | definitive though. | | |
