Administrator: I have an emergency summons for you. You must go to the court right now.
Me: Do you have a gun?
Administrator: No.
Me: Do you know who I am?
Administrator: No.
Me: Goodbye. (Going on about my business.)
that was my first thought.
Me: Do you have a gun?
Administrator: No.
Me: Do you know who I am?
Administrator: No.

LOL. Pretty much sums it up.
The fact they were able to get so many to comply is astonishing, and a little troubling. Women just went with strangers claiming to be officers of the court? I'd wager not one of them knew what an official summons or ID looked like.
Administrator: I have an emergency summons for you. You must go to the court right now.
Me: I can't - at least not today.
Administrator: Why not?
Me: I have a CCW Permit and if I were to report now, I would trip every alarm in the Court House. I can report tomorrow morning if you wish but before I do so, there's something else you should know.
Administrator: What's that?
Me: I believe in the principals espoused by the Fully Informed Jury Association and that it's my Responsibility to render judgement on the merits of the law as well as the facts of the case. Do you still want me to report to the Court House? I'll be glad to do so - tomorrow morning.
Administrator: Hmmm....
