Heh. I'm a lawyer - they TOOK me on a jury. We reached a verdict.

I collared the lawyers afterwards and asked, "What WERE you thinking?" They said they had other panel members they needed to get rid of worse than they needed to get rid of me (they were right. It was a bad panel. Lots of students, housewives, millennials. Those sorts generally lack the practical business/real life experience to do the job.)

In Texas the law is or used be that (This is not an exact quote) in order to serve on a jury you must be ethically and morally able to render a just verdict. One of the judges in Denton County would simply ask the jury pool; “Does anyone here feel that they are ethically or morally unable to be a juror? If so, stand up and clearly say why you are ethically or morally unsuitable and I will dismiss you if I feel your reason is justified.”
