Unpopular perhaps, but correct in my opinion. Rights and responsibilities are two sides of the same coin in terms of civic duty I think, if I was being tried for a serious crime I would much rather my jurors were people interested in seeing justice done according to the evidence than people who wanted it over with as soon as possible justice be damned. I suspect everyone in a country with juries would want that.

For what it's worth, I probably could have wriggled out of jury service on medical grounds but made sure to do the opposite.
