Varies from state to state and even within a state. Voting and driving are the main culprits.
Why is Eric Holder campaigning to restore voting rights for convicted felons?

Seriously, I was never called for jury duty until I registered to vote, but I wasn't 18 until then either. I've been called 4 times, but never selected, never even interviewed. But still had to miss a couple days work every time. I was called as a witness in a murder trial once, but the defendant plead out. Did they call me and tell me I didn't have to come in? Hell, no. Bastards.

I don't vote. Nothing the government wants is without an ulterior motive.

I think you're right, like Obama's meeting today with all the democratic governors.
They want to push the democratic party in whatever way they can.
I've heard on the local news this meeting was to find nominees for the 2016 election to raising the minimum wage.

Never heard there was a fight but ..

Holder gets away with murder and Obama pardons him.
Why are democrats such a circus?

Dude, in America to vote you may aswell just flip a coin.
Dont pick it up tho, cos both sides will be covered in shit.
As for Holder trying to restore voting rights for felons, it's probably cos most of them are "his people".
As in, der blerk.

You keep bringing that up, you have impure thoughts about black people you aren't telling us? It's ok to admit you're a recovering racist. Everyone should be allowed a change of perspective without people thinking badly of you. Even Mien Fur-her Obama is evolving that character trait too.

Seems to me that if you've paid your debt to society, any privileges taken away should be restored.
To Racerboy, the jury pool was expanded in most states from voter registration to just about anything they can get to increase the jury pool. Not enough registered voters. I know when I last lived in Georgia, they were allowed to call you every quarter too. You could serve jury duty 4 times a year in some counties there.

No worries. I make mistakes just like everybody else. I have been on juries a couple of times for trivial offenses. It was kind of boring, although I am sure the defendant didn't feel that way.

Jury duty is an opportunity for good people to nullify bad law. Google jury nullification. If more people took cases where this no victim to trial there wouldn't be so many stupid laws.

If you think whatever politicians we elect have no effect on the future of this country, you haven't been paying attention. I will grant that Holder is a racist ("I didn't take this job to prosecute people of color"), but I believe he is more motivated by personal ambition than racism. He may desire to harm whites, but that doesn't mean he wants to help blacks.

Serving time doesn't mean you have paid your debt. Those you have wronged. have not been made whole. I think that phrase, "paid your debt to society", was made up by some con who thinks he has a "right" to be forgiven and trusted again. Felons are routinely dismissed from jury pools for "cause" by prosecutors and sometimes by the defense.

so if you're not anti-black, you're a racist?
what an odd statement from the guy who claims that blacks are more inclined to criminality.

whoever pays you to write for them is getting ripped off. i'm beginning to suspect your wife is just deceiving you into thinking this is true so you'll be less psycho.
i bet she just sends all your files to the trash bin and transfers money from her account to yours.
you really are that horrible of a writer and a human being.
