I don’t consider jury duty to be an honor.On the contrary it’s an imposition that cost the potential juror not only time but money as well.

Just ask a judge if you can skip out of jury duty or fail to show up on the appointed date.You will probably get a contempt of court charge thrown at you.Proving how involuntary and honorable the jury system really is.

The Only way I would look foreward to being on a jury is if I could nullify all of these anti-Second amendment prosecutions that will follow all of these new gun control laws.

I would look foreward to that.

I don’t know that I consider an honor..but it is a civic duty. Kind of like voting. So maybe it is an honor, on second thought.

Do I get annoyed that pertinent evidence is with held during a trial that might affect my decision? You bet.

Do I get EXTREMELY annoyed if I spend my time sitting in a jury pool all day...and then they settle “out of court”? Dang right. That shouldn’t be allowed imho.
