It was out of sync when it came to OJ.

In every trial, lawyers are allowed to dismiss jurors. Why don't you know this?

Yes, you are supposed to be tried in front of a jury of your peers, so do you want gang members to only have jurors who are also gang members?

My post argued that lawyers should not be allowed to dismiss jurors.

"Yes, you are supposed to be tried in front of a jury of your peers, so do you want gang members to only have jurors who are also gang members?"

Since we are all supposed to be created equal, I contend that any citizen is a peer of the defendant.
