I encourage folks here to use their jury blacklists to the fullest extent [View all]

many of you know more about this than me, but if you don't keep in mind:

if you're a feminist or other type of liberal or civil rights activist, in a way you're targeted by a minority here, but a minority that is very effective in getting on juries.

just a hint of how this all can play out...if someone posts something offensive to feminists, when the feminists and their allies respond in the thread, all of these people will not be called to serve on juries about any post in that thread.

who is left? those who aren't offended and don't post in it, those who are "meh" about it or those who hang back and wait to serve on juries (get a life right?).

but you see it time and time again.

so talk to each other and update your jury blacklist. i think it makes a difference because those who oppose feminists don't have the numbers here that you do.

thanks for listening.
