Analytically, they did several things wrong in this video, (but at least they did something!) Don't call it "fee-juh" activism, noone knows what that means. Use English words that others can repeat without sounding awkward. Call it "jury rights activism", or "handing out information about jury rights". The essential words are the ones you want to stick in people's minds without explanation: jury rights. Or even "due process". Association: Bill of Rights. Not "Fee-juh". Presentation matters
Person in chewbacca costume not helping cause. If you must wear a mask (and thus associate the libertarian movement with silliness), at least let it be a guy fawkes mask. You see, that would be ON TOPIC.
For libertarians, image is not important, logic is everything. For unphilosophical lemmings, logic is not important, image is everything.
Figure this out, you will be much more effective.
Also, if you are not focusing on "surviving voir dire", then you have already lost.
Thank you for this very informative video. I agree that the juries may be our best hope of reforming the legal system. Thanks for the link to FIJA. I will print up the material next time I go down to the County Courthouse for jury duty.
It is baffling to me as well that this is not happening all over the place. If anything, it seems like Manch would be leading the way considering how many activists they have available.
But I've always said Keene was about quality over quantity, even though we're getting both lately.
the costume is very bad idea.

This, I think, is one of the most noble forms of American activism. This is such a profoundly noble cause.

the highest court of law is a jury of your piers and nobody or thing, even a high court judge has the right to "instruct" anybody.

Is the FIJA movement hurt or helped buy a guy dresssed as a Wookie outside the court house? Doesn't it make us look like a bunch of lunaticks?

Most probably because it is known as the citadel of anarchists and it has a lot of promotions reaching out to potential movers to move to Keene.

Nice job with the B-roll and keeping all the audio. Hope it encourages someone to do this elsewhere.
