They are struggling so hard to find somebody who doesn't know anything about what happened and why.

they were blasting his news for the first 2 weeks, and couldnt come up with a way to make it a "left problem" until a month later.
Maybe that's why? If you blast it loud enough, then you will only find the absolute most tuned out ignorant people to put on the jury.
He can’t get a “fair” trial because the corporations have screwed everyone over for pure profit. Only people who haven’t been screwed over are the rich. It’s a show trial that will convict and demand the death penalty because how dare the rich faces consequences.
How dare we not have a supervillain like Bane to fight for the people, build an army and break Mangione out
Jury nullification.
Shared or haha’d a segment with Bill Burr adamantly saying Free Luigi?
Holy shit lol
"I love how they acted surprised. 'Wawawhhwawawaw why did that happen?' He wrote on the bullets why it happened."
Bill Burr FTW
If there's someone out there that hasn't heard about this case, I don't think they should be allowed on the jury either. They're obviously incapable of paying attention to anything
"Neutral" jurors, of course, crucially being ones both 1. ok with corpos killing regular people and 2. not ok with regular people killing corpos.
Also 3. People willing to consider the death penalty for a mugging.
I think being pissed at health insirance companies is universal and therefore neutral
It just says a jury of peers.
If a cannibal is on trial you can't call a jury impartial because none of them are cannibals, or based on the fact that they all think cannibalism is disgusting. Form the jury up, and let's get this Jury Nullification party started.
I guess they'll have to have a jury made of nothing but CEOs.
Ah yes....his peers
Cool. Get him a non-neutral jury. I've got bigger shit to worry about.
If nobody's neutral, everybody's neutral.
Gee seems like every American has experienced a moment of wishing they could get revenge on an insurance company and then took in interest in the case where a hero did. Weird that.
I haven't had an experience like that with anyone I'm close with, but I'm still pissed the fuck off at them because a) I could and b) I have empathy for the many people who have. So they just need to fill the jury with people without empathy.
So what happens when they can’t find a jury? Had there ever been a case of that in U.S. history?
There's always someone, although they might struggle with the whole "his peers" thing if it's basically just a bunch of mennonites.
Yeah but such a jury wouldn't be his peers, put me in coach I'm literally one of his peers
Everyone's favourite video game characters are the Super Mario Brothers.
Ha! This is so true. Most people have at least an opinion on healthcare companies, and that's before we look at experiences.
Screwed is the new neutral.
No one should be on death row. Set this man free!
The idea of "neutral" long ago hit an iceberg and is sinking into a grim experience of mass suffering, this is really less an economic and policy issue now and more of a weird rhetorical contortion of a war against the average USian into abstract terms that disguise the fact that a war is going on.
Good
