Why didn’t this get brought up in the OJ trial?

Good luck screening for “subconscious racist beliefs”

The lady juror had the good sense to tell the judge she was being stalked — and the Court of Appeals slams her for it.

More crap and you should see the black racist jurors in inner cities who let black defendants off the hook. They are never held to account.

The court in the OJ case did everything it could to ensure that the jury included black racists.

Maybe minority drivers get pulled over more because they are bad drivers. Most minorities have an entitlement attitude that makes them think a different standard should apply to them. Speeding, weaving in and out of traffic, running red lights, those things are their way of sticking it to the man, and thus they can do those things with impunity.

"subconscious"?

How is it possible to prove that nobody on any jury is a subconscious racist?

No, they already figured that out. All white people have them. Ergo all whites must be excluded from juries. That’s is where this is going.

The day that the verdict of “Not Guilty” came down for OJ I was listening to talk radio and it was the main discussion.

A black woman called in and said she was glad OJ killed the Nicole and Ron because it was payback for white people killing blacks and this woman was dead serious. The radio host was taken aback as was I and I will never forget it.

Generally the jury system is defended as a composite of the experiences of jurors applied to the facts of the case. I don’t know how you can ever get a jury that does not bring their life experiences to their deliberations. They do not walk into the jury box with a brain that is a tabula rasa.

Attorneys are charged with ferreting out biases and making sure that the juror can put them aside and give the party a fair trial. Otherwise, they get the juror dismissed from the jury. But the emphasis is on ashing them about putting their biases aside to be fair. Otherwise you would never empanel a jury.

This judge seems to be setting a new and impossible standard for jurors if he thinks that ‘latent’ and “subliminal” biases can be found and eliminated from all jurors.

‘e have unequivocally condemned this specious and hateful practice when it was used by the law enforcement community in this state to target minority motorists as they traveled our highways. ‘

Hoax.

The real question: Do they get to keep the car? (Oh, and did they kill the old woman?)

Everyone knows that if you want to get out of jury duty all you have to do is "casually" mention during jury selection how you think "all the niggers, chinks, spics, and queers should be hanged".

Easy Peazy, Japanesey.
