| Topic | Mueller establishing grand jury now |
| CW_McGraw 08/03/17 4:07:36 PM #10 | Liberals have way too much faith in the moral courage of a Republican Congress. They'd bend over backwards to concoct justifications for Trump if he fired Mueller. --- |

| Topic | Trump haters, say something nice about Trump or his policies |
| CW_McGraw 07/31/17 1:57:49 AM #68 | His ideological commitment to many of the tenets of conservatism is nonexistent. His recent call to ban transgenders from military service isn't about Trump's prejudice towards transgender people. It's about demonstrating ideological purity to hardline right wing loonies who give a shit about that stuff in order to win their votes for his stupid wall. If there were a world where Democrats both ran Congress and weren't fervently impeaching him, Trump would probably go along with Democrats on stuff that he thought would make him look good. --- |

| Topic | Damn. Trump talking shit about Sessions behind his back while he's at the WH. |
| CW_McGraw 07/27/17 12:03:46 AM #32 | If your last name isn't Trump, your loyalty to the president is irrelevant. At a time that it seemed politically dangerous to hitch your wagon to Trump, Sessions was among the earliest and most strident of Trump's supporters. --- |
| Topic | What are some good excuses to get out of jury duty? |
| CW_McGraw 07/26/17 9:22:08 PM #6 | For my case, they asked if you would favor the opinion of a cop/expert over other people. People who said stuff like, "I would automatically trust a cop more than a citizen," tended to get off. --- |
| Topic | Remember all of the 'Halo killers' and 'the next Halo' games back in the day? |
| CW_McGraw 07/25/17 7:45:49 PM #30 | Brute Force had the unfortunate issue of being made before Xbox Live took off. I remember eagerly anticipating its release and enjoying the shit out of it. Back before competitive online multi-player and linear action setpiece based campaigns became the bread and butter of console shooters, there was a ton of emphasis placed on AI. Brute Force especially benefited from that. Its entire single player campaign was built around streamlined squad based combat that demanded the AI actually pull its weight, and it largely did. I genuinely consider it a forgotten gem of the original Xbox catalog. Halo died because COD. People grew to like loadouts, upgrades, and quick death more than Halo's slow purist arena shooting. --- |
| Topic | Chick-fil-A always skimping on the fries |
| CW_McGraw 07/25/17 1:19:18 AM #4 | The food is perfectly fine, but Chik-fil-A's portions are positively European in scale. Horrendous value for how much you end up paying. Five Guys costs an arm and a leg, but that large fry could feed a family of four if need be. --- |

| Topic | Got a fuckin jury duty summons letter today. |
| CW_McGraw 07/21/17 12:19:47 AM #47 | You can't just be racist to get out of jury duty. The way to get out now is to say you love cops and value their opinion over anyone else's. --- |

| CW_McGraw 07/21/17 12:13:31 AM #25 | GiftedACIII posted... What state is this if you dont' mind? Florida DivideR posted...
Nope The Admiral posted... What was the main evidence that he was guilty? Witnesses that saw him commit the murder? The two eyewitnesses that went with him to pick up the drug money. They positively ID'd him. A third guy, the victim's roommate/fellow crackhead, also ID'd the defendant with 60-70% certainty, which by itself means jackshit, but matters in context of the other two witnesses. sabin017 posted... Were any of the jurors holdups to a unanimous decision? It took like half an hour to unanimously find him guilty with 1 holdout and a few people who were very weak in their commitment to his guilt, but we really did hem and haw about whether it was first or second degree. --- |
| Topic | I just finished serving the jury of a murder trial. AMA |
| CW_McGraw 07/20/17 8:50:41 PM #18 | Anteaterking posted... Seems pretty open and shut? Mostly, 1st or 2nd degree was something the jury mulled over a lot, but premeditation has a low bar to argue. lilORANG posted... What was the defense's position? why did they think there was reasonable doubt? The prosecution was built largely around the testimony of the two runners, who were quite bad as witnesses in a lot respects. They contradicted their depositions, made inconsistent statements in the years since the murder, had criminal histories, and didn't do well when grilled by the defense. If all we had to go on was their testimony, this guy would be free. Cleo_II posted... Did you have to look at any graphic pics of the crime scene/body? Yeah. If you've been on 4chan, you will have seen worse. It was a guy with a small bullet hole over his eye and some blood. --- |

Any hot girls in court? Prosecutor was a reasonably attractive mid 30s girl. One of the jurors was a girl around my age, but married. Chaze_the_chat posted... I need to know the deets Additional deets: We didn't have an actual gun found, but a picture of a gun matching the description given by his two runners were found on the killer's phone. Killer made a bunch of calls from jail that sounded incredibly guilty. "I got dudes snitchin on me," etc.. Lawlfulcoptors1 posted... Did you and the rest of the jurers get rich or did you have to pay for parking and your own food as well? Parking was free and reasonably plentiful despite being a major metropolitan center. Food was not free, but there were quality places within walking distance. Unknown5uspect posted... Eh. Been on jury of murder and capital murder cases. How'd it feel knowing someone's life is in your hands? Horrifying. I was genuinely unsure about how I felt going into closing arguments, but despite the potential holes in the evidence, the totality of it presented a convincing case. I am quite sure he did it. --- |

| CW_McGraw 07/20/17 8:32:31 PM #12 | CagingElephants posted... Did you stand up mid-trial and yell "I OBJECT!"? No, jurors say nothing until deliberation basically. Colorahdo posted... What were the details of the case? Did he go to prison? Defendant was a drug dealer who killed a customer because the customer didn't have $30 to pay for crack he bought. I didn't hang around, but we determined he was guilty of first degree murder, so I assume he will go to prison for a long time. thronedfire2 posted... did he do it? Yes Kazgotflred posted... What was the outcome Defendant was guilty of first degree murder. Doe posted... Give us a rundown. Defendant sent two teenage runners to go deliver crack to a guy and get $30 from him in exchange. He didn't have the money, so the runners go to the dealer, who comes back with his runners to get his money. He shot the customer in the head after an argument where the customer says, "If you're gonna kill me, kill me." --- |

If I wanted something resembling a normal pizza, I'd order from literally anywhere but Pizza Hut. When I eat from Pizza Hut, it's because I crave that pan cooked monstrosity. --- |
| Topic | Best president of the last 40 years |
| CW_McGraw 07/13/17 9:17:30 PM #24 | Carter was the most consistently anti-imperialist president of the 20th century and appointed Paul Volcker, who was the architect of the monetary policy that allowed the Reagan era economic boom. It is hard to know exactly what is ultimately a President's fault, but in two areas I value highly, Carter was fantastic. --- |
| Topic | Wait, why is CNN getting shit when Fox news has been biased for years? |
| CW_McGraw 07/08/17 9:34:01 PM #38 | Because the Right has adopted post-modernism and are using its methods to erode the idea of objective reality as a means of securing their power. --- |

| Topic | Remember Terri Schiavo? |
| CW_McGraw 07/03/17 2:38:58 PM #11 | I supported the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube, but this is completely different. This is an infant who's totally reliant on its parents. Terry Schiavo was a married adult. Her parents' whims don't hold the same weight as the parents in this scenario. If they want to put themselves into bankruptcy on the off chance they can save their baby's life, that's their right. --- |

| Topic | Lol democrats just keep losing huh? |
| CW_McGraw 06/20/17 11:25:55 PM #20 | Spiritlittle posted... We won for the past 8 years. What do you expect? The political pendulum swung to the right, and then it will swing back to the left, and then back to the right. That's the way it goes and that's the way it will always go, unless the two-party system changes. The Democrats won the presidency on the back of the Michael Jordan of presidential candidates in 08 and 12, and lost power everywhere else. Obama and a few positive SCOTUS rulings made the party appear much more successful than it actually was. The party's a shit show and will in all likelihood fail to make significant gains in efforts to curb Trumpism. --- |

| CW_McGraw 06/19/17 4:03:56 PM #3 | The Pit. It's a more focused style parody of generic 90s alt rock, which is still relatively fertile comedic ground in a way an 80s hair metal or synthpop parody wouldn't be. --- |
