If the jury is comprised of HN readers, you'd be correct. They are not. And it's on purpose that they are not. That is my main problem with juries. Whatever

If the jury is comprised of HN readers, you'd be correct. They are not. And it's on purpose that they are not. That is my main problem with juries. Whatever they are, they are decidedly not a jury of my peers. They are people who are selected to be as dumb and open to suggestion as possible. Effectively a popularity contest between counsel. One day in a courtroom during jury selection should show any thinking individual that the whole process is a complete farce. Only the least capable (in general) end up on juries - and it's entirely by design.
