In this article an African American juror was rejected with cause because he was opposed to the Confederate flag in this death penalty trial.
I think it is time we start rejecting Confederate flag supporters and persons sympathetic to the Confederacy from juries.
Professor Euan Hague and I had this article proposing that jurors sympathetic to the Confederacy be removed from juries.
