Talk:Just Eleven Jurymen

Pun
I think that the title "Just Eleven Jurymen" is supposed to be meant as a joke because in a typical jury there are 12 people. So it's saying that there are only 11 of them and they do what is right. Should that be mentioned in the article?--DancePowderer 02:12, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

12 people? May I see links to the head count please? I don't know, I kinda didn't pay much attention to that part of EL. And please don't use the anime, because things change. One-Winged Hawk 23:56, November 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * DancePowderer said that "There are 12 people in a typical jury." As in a 'real-life' jury:


 * Belgium:Twelve jurors decide by majority whether the defendant is guilty or not.
 * Republic of Ireland: Consisting of twelve persons, juries are selected from a jury panel which is picked at random by the county registrar from the electoral register.
 * United States: In 1898 the Supreme Court held that the jury must be composed of at least twelve persons, although this was not necessarily extended to state civil jury trials.
 * So DP is suggesting that the just in the "Just 11 Jurymen" of Enies Lobby may be a pun on being both "fair" and having 1 less than a normal jury. He is wondering if we should add that trivia to the page.
