Jury Duty

And how did you accept it when you learned 2 weeks before,
you were court ordered to,
1 year of Federal Grand Jury,
the US Marshall's asking BS questions at your door?

Then every other Wednesday, for what seems like a lifetime.
You true bill, 52 to 120 illegal Hispanics,
then move on to the reservation,
convict an Indian,
and the rest of your day was drug or gun cases?
Once in a while a pipe bomb or 2, or some commerce BS.

So anyway just register to vote,
find yourself on list to a jury.
You will love it, you get to learn so much.

Jury Duty

The Opening Post:

I am currently serving as a district court grand juror. This is the first time I have ever served as a juror and it has been very interesting. In my work as a Child Protective Services Social Worker, I spent plenty of time in court for judicial reviews and in both civil and criminal trials as a witness.

This experience is rounding out my exposure to the judicial system very nicely. A lot of it is pretty routine stuff, but there are cases that make one wonder just how evolved we really are as a species.

I was wondering if anyone here has had the opportunity to serve as a juror and if you feel as I do that this service is both a duty and a privilege.

If you were called to serve, would you do so willingly, or would you do your best to get out of it? Why?

? An opportunity, duty, privilege willingly served ?

Not RANT.

Thank You
