When being interviewed for jury duty, all you have to do is casually mention that you are associated with the TEA Party movement and the defense attorney will seek to have you relieved.

Or mention you are a believer in jury nullification.

Just follow every answer you give during jury selection with, “Why do you ask?”

The only times I got seated on the jury was when defense counsel had run out of challenges.

I showed up in jacket & tie & identified myself as “Army reservist, Vietnam veteran”.

Prosecution rubbed his hands with glee & grinned, “Present the juror”. Defense rolled her eyes & exclaimed, “Excuse the juror!”.

One time I stated “The roads would be so much safer if all the women were home where they belonged” during the initial questioning, and they sent me home.

...and then he'll turn over your personal contact information to the IRS for an audit.

I've always wondered what would happen if I said "That guy sure looks guilty!" (pointing at the judge).

probably nothing good would happen.
