No More Jury Duty

Something snapped in me this morning as I read this ludicrous outrage of the no-fly list, a click of my future as a citizen fitting irrevocably into place: I’m never serving on a jury again. It’s a small thing, sure, but damn right I’ll take it, it’s one less thing. In no way will I ever let my soul and intellect be shit upon by participating in our legal system, never, and no judge will ever allow me to be in a courtroom very long when it’s discovered who I am.
My last experience in a courtroom approximately two years ago was very instructive and is the source of my utter conviction that my intelligence never be grossly insulted by partaking in the unjust joke of American law again. I got that nasty summons to appear at Santa Clara Superior Court for a fucking electronics industry intellectual property case, Jesus, I might lose six weeks at my job for this?
