Jeez, I am all of those (well not a ghetto exactly, but not well to do).  I
am not a peer?  Should I feel slighted?

I'm proud to serve too, but when I got called I was basically needed at home
with young kids (infants) and I was nursing, etc., so I asked to be excused.
I just can't take out that much time when my primary responsibility is as
mother.

If I could be sure I would not be out for two weeks at a time, I would be
happy to do it.

My problem is: I feel that often juries determine innocence or guilt based
on their biases, whether they like the people on trial, racial issues. Not
fairly, based on the evidence at hand. I don't want to wrongly convict a
person. I also don't feel that someone who grew up in a ghetto, who comes
from a broken home, or who has never gotten a higher education is my peer.
