Jury duty... again...but maybe NOT!!

I received my second summons to jury pool duty in ten years a couple weeks ago...

The first time, I felt proud to be doing my duty as a citizen.... for about five minutes.

That's how long it took BOTH attorneys to learn during actual jury selection how I felt about attorneys...

and I was promptly excused! (I cannot tell a lie!

)

This time, I felt it would be best for all involved if i saved everyone some time and effort. I went online and filled out the questionaire and asked to be disqualified aforehand.

Again, I had to be completely honest (under penalty of law

) so I explained that I "had ABSOLUTELY no faith or trust in the corrupt debacle our government has devolved to and could not in good conscience lend credence to it by playing a part in it. And I still hate lawyers, for they tend to become politicians, which is even worse!"

What do you suppose the response will be?
