Day in Court
Wow,
I experienced a first this week. I have been called in for jury duty only three times in my life, this week was the first time that I was actually selected for the jury. I have to say that I learned a lot about people and how they function. Some good and some that are very hard to swallow. The most aggravating thing was how their lawyer would use tactics to get the case dropped or sway our judgement even though he himself knew they were guilty, as they say beyond a shadow of dought. What really fascinated me in the end was that 12 people from all walks of life, Christian and heathen could reach a decision of guilty in less than 30 minutes of deliberation.
The other thing was how 12 people going through the three day process bonded together. We could learn from the experience for small group gatherings. Because we were not allowed to talk about the case to any body for two days we talked about all kinds of things in our life like how many times we got into trouble with the law. I sure hope nobody had a recording device. I wonder if this might just might be the reason why God hasn't sold my home in Clark County?
Well I'm glad its all settled and I can spend the afternoon at the car show. If you get this soon enough come on down. Their are some great machines here.
