In a One Day One Trial State, you’ll get called more often ...

I agree that many jurisdictions treat jurors like crap. That doesn’t excuse ‘shirking’. People who try to get out of jury duty by any means necessary have no business complaining about the sort of decisions juries make.

Like it or not, We the People, as jurors are an important defense against governmental over-reach. Imagine if Mr. Trump had been afforded decent jurors.

“I agree that many jurisdictions treat jurors like crap.”

Not only that, there is no instruction on how broad the power of a Jury is and how to wield it effectively.
