I only got the letter one time.  I answered their questions honestly and they decided not to take me.  Good luck, my Captain.

The prosecution, yes.  The defense will toss his ass out.

The last time they tried to pick me the defense lawyer asked as he pointed to his client and said "Does anybody in this room think my client must be guilty of something or he wouldn't be sitting in this chair?" I raised my hand. Poof. I was gone. BTW the kid pled guilty three days later of robbing a bank with a ski mask on.

Gee, thanks. It's all a waste of time for me and the courts. I'll never sit on a jury. And with my back ground in law enforcement, they shouldn't want me.
