And I was asked, and answered truthfully. About guns and beers.

Benton county washington?I was called to jury duty in Benton county. The case involved a felon that was found with a firearm. I was called up to the stand and asked if I owned any firearms. I told them I owned multiple guns. I was promptly let go from the jury.

This is probably an odd question ,but I was Just wondering if anyone has ever been asked( or is allowed to be asked) at jury duty if they have a CHL(which is not public info right?) or own any guns.
If you don't answer would it be perjury?
And if you do acknowledge that then make it public information?

While not in Oregon ... But I have been on a jury twice.
My first time I think it was the fact that I have a CPL , am a gun owner and had military service that got me on the jury.
All three of those things were relevant to the case.
Serving on jury duty or being on a jury is very important and not to be taken lightly.
I found the experience to be enlightening , as in I was willing to do my duty and learned a bit about the court system, but also damn glad I wasn't on trial.

That's funny ... and we do indeed talk about concealed carry of guns from the 1760's -the 1880s during our show / displays at times....
I don't always carry... But when I do carry its a Colt Series 70 Government Model in .45acp.

^^^^Fastest way to get dismissed? Tell 'em you're a member of Fully Informed Jury Association and believe you are empowered to act as trier not just of fact but of the law itself. (Which was part of the Founders' intent, but the Ambulance Chaser Class hates wild cards of any kind.)
After years of not being able to take the time off to serve ( small business owner), I was called and selected to serve last fall. Quite an eye opener. Sorry I didn't do it sooner. The rule of law is held by a slender thread, recommend serving to all who can. One person can make a difference.I'd like, if required, to be judged by 12 people that are more than willing to serve their civic duty.
I swear I'm the only person that doesn't curse when that letter comes in the mail.
