Do you understand how juries are selected in a criminal trial?

SC Judicial Department

You're scenario is also making the assumption that even if the jury was "lily white", a white person is going to automatically convict a black person because of racism. I don't live in SC but I do work with the some of the Navy civilians in the Charleston area (most of the folks I work with are white) and none appear to be racists. I find that premise of your scenario to be offensive and racist.

Hey SS33 are you guys heading to Harborfest this weekend?
