ok guys I took (virtually) all

off my Ignore list - it's been almost 24 hours. No jury duty. Sooooo, for the sake of my sanity and blood pressure, they are ALL gong back on. Except for The One who's on there already, and will remain so in perpetuity or, until June 16 at which point it won't matter a damn. I am now going to (gasp) GD-Pee to get it done.

I'm reminded of the 60's with many of the Hillary crowd. That conservative, "the establishment knows best" attitude. I'd thought we had moved past it but it seems it will always be with us.

I've done the same, this week. Checked my profile; 100% eligible, but still no call to duty. Whatever can be the explanation?

Well, I'll let it ride for awhile.

busy with that stuff (in a way) I'd turn on the phone on the subway and it'd be "Hello LiberalElite!" but radio silence since mid-April. I guess they're just thoughfully giving me an enforced vacation...

More often than not, it's a Whisky Tango Foxtrot moment. As you say, NG for the BP

it doesn't mean you really are. In ATA, Skinner made it clear he was blocking people from jury participation without changing the jury status in their profile.

Skinner said he's just removing people from serving. It's beginning to look like they're all Bernie supporters. This complaint isn't happening anywhere else on DU but here.

but had to put 2 of the vitriolic trolls back on. So far, so good. I did hide both the HRC group and GDP, which keeps my blood pressure down.
