Finally, after well over 6 years of being registered in Washington, I got my first Jury Summons.

2. Well, the lawyers have the right to question the panel and they can throw out a certain number

I don't remember how many, but when they got to me,they always asked about my beliefs around drugs and while most of them summarily dismissed me, one actually argued with me as though he thought he was going to change my mind or he might just have thought I was bullshitting him, who knows, but yeah, the jury of your peers has a few loopholes.

So, I'm hoping I neither get a drug trial nor a potential death penalty trial, because I have just as strong opinions against the death penalty.
