Not a single juror raised his or her hand. I wanted to stand up and raise my hand, but I chickened out.
That was a couple of years ago, so no kilt for me either.
As a Lutheran pastor, I'm sure they would've excluded me from the jury anyway. 
I've never been asked for jury duty, but reading this i can't help feeling sad that we have gotten to the point where Godfearing men are not considered desireable for such an important duty. (if I understand the post correctly).
sick world..
