Before a burglary trial, the judge explained to the defendant, "You can let me try your case, or you can choose to have a jury of your peers."
The man thought for a moment. "What are peers?" he asked.
"They`re people just like you “ your equals."
"Forget it," retorted the defendant. "I don`t want to be tried by a bunch of thieves."
