Good

Is the amount meant to prevent Alex crom being in business in this case, or do you hope he can still operate as long as he takes it as a learning lesson.
How has Jesse's passing affected his brother JT, how old was JT.
Are gun control and "take away guns" different?
Is defense using "blood feud" reckless, given their client?
How will the outcome of this trial allow you to restore Jesse's legacy
How will the money help you heal, what would bring you closure.

Bad

Have you found it in your heart to forgive (Adam?) or Alex jones, will you after the trial is over.
Did you try to reach Alex directly.
How did you not hear Alex's statements during Megyn Kelly?
How will you use the funds?
Have you saved copies of written threats shared or via email?

Who knows

When did you first meet with detective Jewish (lmao)
When did you start therapy with Dr. Crouch
When did you hold your son?
Harassment was frequent and substantial, can you further define?
Can you describe how your reputation has been affected?

Chili talk makes me feel bad because my go to recipe is super basic and Midwestern outside of the assload of habaneros I use.

Every time I've tried more daring recipes, it's never been bad, but not as good as the chili I make where half the ingredients are canned. I got that Midwestern-rear end pallet.

Perhaps the defence's merciless stratagem of playing a half-hour of InfoWars for the jury has finally paid off and someone has successfully been red-pilled.

Does the jury have to unanimously decide on the damages like a regular trial where everyone has to agree or can only some agree to it .

No. Compensatory damages do not need a unanimous verdict. Punitive damages do, but they're going to be less than 1% of compensatory damages so it doesn't really matter outside of the headline.

Also, remember, there are 16 jurors and four will be dismissed before they begin deliberations.

Very normal, it's alternates in case a juror has to be dismissed during the trial for whatever reason (sickness or death, breaking the rules, etc)

It's something that came up during the Kyle Rittenhouse case, too. There were 18 jurors for the same reason, and the judge allowed the defendant to pick 6/18 names out of a hat to dismiss.

No because I wouldn't want that to be accessible to anyone later on, so I can make sure I'd be on that jury.

This is fun since it's the first time I've personally seen people who are "demonically possessed" so I know what he means by that. Which apparently is uh... people who don't like him.

You know, I just finished fermenting a bottle of my home-made hot sauce. It's not my best work cause it was just a tester for a new way of getting a funky flavor, so I didn't put in as much garlic or other fun stuff as usual. It's hot and funky and tasty, it's just not what I usually make.

But it is a bottle of hot sauce made with peppers I grew myself, and I'd totally be willing to volunteer it as a prize if we come up with a cool thing.

I think an "Alex Jones Sucks Commemorative Chili Cook Off" Thread could be fun - either here or in Goons with Spoons. Iron Chef SA-style effort posts describing the preparation of your chili and minimum 2 sides, plating, and ideally how your guests (or partner/children/demon master/fish with human eyes) reviewed it.
