>A jury is made up of twelve people who aren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

You're assuming that every citizen is either ignorant or disdainful of their responsibilities as citizens.

That's sad. I've never tried to get out of jury duty, because I see that as part of my responsibility to my community.

That said, in the half-dozen or so times I've been called, I have yet to be selected for a jury.

But I'll do the same next time, because it's the right thing to do.

I'd add that if I were involved in a trial, I certainly wouldn't want someone who would prefer to shirk their responsibilities as a citizen on my jury, that's for sure.
