Hi,
I don't want to sound like a slacker. I think that serving as a juror is important.

But I freak out in the courtrooms. One of my friend who has an anxiety disorder things that the rooms in court houses are designed to cause anxiety -- to make one feel the power of the gov.



--The second time I was in the fed court house was right after 9/11. A guy was found on the wrong side of the airport without proper papers. (an illegal maybe)
And it was mostly going to be a he said/he said kind of case. They asked us if we would generally believe a cop. I said no. I was surprised that most people said yes.

I really really didn't think I could stand sitting there another minute. And I was scared that I would do something obnoxious and get hauled away to jail or a hospital.
