Most Americans dread the appearance of a jury summons in their mailbox. Many will do all they can to avoid serving on a jury. A large number refuse to show up. Can a jury of unwilling participants, randomly selected and not clever enough to escape jury duty ever really render an impartial and fair verdict?
Considering the movie 12 Angry Men and your own experience, is the jury system fair? What would make it more fair? Would you rather have a judge (a bench trial) or a jury (a jury trial) decide a case that you were involved in?
