    they should just require a randomly selected jury for any ruling and the justices only job should be deciding what to present to jurors

      I’m not sure I’d like to trust a random jury to determine the interpretation of laws

        I can guarantee a randomly selected jury would do a better job than the current court.

          If we’re comparing with the current SC everything is an improvement. But if we’re going to change things, I would prefer a system that does not rely on easily manipulated, uneducated masses.

            I haven’t heard of a lot of jury tampering trials go well. And usually isnt it more of a mafia style “nice family you got there, would be a shame if something happened to it” situation?
