Irrelevant the shirt proves nothing nor does his attendance at the rally prove diddly
The juror said they wanted people to look at jury duty as a way to make a social change. Jury duty has nothing whatsoever to do with that. That's an extremely inappropriate thing for any juror to say.
2. Again irrelevant
The trial was fair. Get over it
Not irrelevant at all. You would not be cool with a pro Chauvin shirt juror who ended up voting not guilty. Fact. The trial does not seem to have been a fair trial at this point. I will not get over it. Of course these new developments do not get posted by anyone in the Chauvin thread, because people don't care whether it was a fair trial or not. I personally care about the legal system operating in a proper and fair fashion however, so I'll keep defending Chauvin where it seems the right thing to do, and the principal of people having the right to a fair trial. You get over it.
