(4,392 posts)2. What does that mean for my right to tried
by a jury of my peers in Virginia? (Not that I'm going there anytime soon).
I've always thought that if I were to be arrested for anything I'd want a jury of all gay men as my real peers. And I'd hope to have good grounds for appeal if they weren't.

(6,755 posts)3. would it be fair for a straight white man to have a jury of all straight
white men as his peers? I think we tried that before and it wasn't quite so fair.
