I sat on a murder case. Sequestered and all. Never, ever again. If
I ever get called I'd rather have the judge throw me in jail for
contempt than go through that again.

What happened that was so bad?

I agree completely. It is our duty to serve. It may not be pleasant,
but it's required if we are to remain free.

Agreed on all counts.

One thing that struck me, it is amazing when you start talking to people
in detail, how wide the variation is between what will seem "fair" to
one person and the total opposite is "fair" to another.

And another thing... when did you start attributing quotes??

Alos, if everyone with intelligence took that stance, then we would
be left with only the ignorant and clueless to judge us ehrn our
time comes. Sort of like having a conversation with Bobbie...

I agree. And when the Judge can show me that all the other citizens
in the jurisdiction have served on a special venue, capital murder
trial requiring sequestering (sp), then I'll do it again. Until then
I plan to be in contempt of court.
