Uncle Sam. The Star Spangled Banner. The Pledge of Alegiance. All symbols of our great country;
things we all honor, things we all repsect. But there is one vital, indispensible symbol
of our country that many of us don't honor. In fact, it is one symbol that many of us
do everything we can to avoid; everything we can to disrespect. I'm talking about jury
duty.
You know that letter you get every few years. The letter that asks you to come down to the
courthouse and for a few days serve the cause of justice -- justice that is the very cornerstone
of our liberty and our freedom.
You know, if you think of it like that, a few days of service every few years in exchange
for being free. You've got to admit, that's a pretty good deal.
