So, I have had one hell of a day today. It starts off back at the courthouse early this morn for jury duty. Both the Prosecution and the Defense are asking us all questions. Turns out it’s a brandishing weapon charge that may have included the death of a dog and a gun being held on someone.
Lots of weapon questions. Do you have one? More than two? Do you actively carry? Ever been charged with a gun charge? Then several dog questions.
Bingo! My way out!
They never asked what I wanted, so I waited until they ask if there was any reason one felt that they were biased. Yes! Now, here we go!
Answer from me on both counts. I would be biased because I worked in animal medicine for 15 years and had more empathy for the animal than the human, and as a long range competitive shooter, I had a very dim view of anyone mishandling a gun, more so as a range master taxed with making sure that does not happen at a shoot.
BAM!!! Home by 11:30
