To my 20-year-old jurymate who wrote "#ACAB" on your jury questionnaire...

we salute you.

I cannot imagine the cajones it took to answer 20+ minutes of the district court judge's and prosecutors' questions about what "ACAB" means without flinching, especially since the trial was a felony assault on a police officer, obstruction of justice, and resisting arrest. I especially cannot emphasize the commitment it took to do this in the country's largest military town, in front of 50 people (!!), with a wildly Conservative judge and his speaker system over your head.

When the district attorney asked, "I work with cops, does that make me a bad person?" and you said: "You may not consider yourself to be a bad person, but your work perpetuates a bad system," the person next to me nearly clapped.

May we all have the testicular fortitude of this skinny white guy with an anime t-shirt and big glasses.
