OK so I've recently received a Jury Summons from Her Majesty's Court Service (HMCS) and whilst I am kind of excited I do know that it is a serious and not meant to be 'fun' matter.

I was just wondering about the whole process and stuff. I've visited the websites that they include the addresses of within the details but I'd love to hear from you lot here on Yahoo! Answers. I'd especially love it if you've done it before and you could detail it as good as possible.

I'm excited because this is something that I've wanted to do ever since I heard about it. Funny thing was when I got it in the post, it comes in a brown paper envelope with a pink background behind the address details, flipped it over to see it saying that it's from Her Majesty's Court Service and thought to my self "Oh F**k, what's this going to be? What have I done wrong?". LoL.

The most useful/detailed answer (selected by me) will result in that user receiving a wonder 10 points!

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!

required to retain honor? Never missed an election(even while stationed outside US) ! Even when no good choice... as mostly its a choice between two of same BUT you must find the slightly more enlightened path... or if eligible to vote have you registered/ registered not bothered/ your reasons? Or have you already fled in fear of your life... wise man once said he who sacrifice liberty for security soon has neither... last part of question Honorable answerers...

We know the companies that produce the electronic voting machines that don't have audit trails are owned by Republican Party supporters so can we trust the results to be accurate? Of course the same question would apply if the owners were Democrats.
The machines should print out a card with the vote that was cast printed on it so that the voter can check it is correct and then that card would be dropped in a voting box on the way out.
After the election 10% of the polling stations boxes would be counted to see that they tally with the electronic vote. The polling stations to be checked would be selected at random after polling closed to make sure the checking was random.

This is a real question, my wife is Jewish and tends conservative but every other member of her family leans heavily democratic and quite liberal, and proud to tell me. Recently, I asked why they thought the democrats had been so silent on what is going on with hzbollah and why (it appears this way) that they are leaving Bush out on a limb to support Israel and have quite literally gone into a shell. I am not interested in holy mantra's or political sidelights I am really very interested in hearing from serious observers and if they happen to be Jewish so much the better.

Well I wrote it like that to get attention.

The U.S. President is considered one of the most powerful men in the world.

Why would we allow our country to appear weak by bashing our own president???

Sure it may be funny and he may be foolish or worse. I am not into a debate on what he does..we know this...do we have be so ignorant?

By making our leader appear a clown we are going to get our $#% Kicked.

Just in case you have forgotton, Pearl Harbor was a sneek attack----the only way to actually take America down---- theoritically speaking.

So do not think for a moment that we will see it coming. The world looks at what we do and we are making a mockery of ourselves.

Perhaps it's better to encourage people NOT to vote, unless they're willing to educate themselves.

Pat Robertson wanted to have a world leader killed some time back and Bush's war is causing vengeance and killing on both sides like ALL other wars do. And the United Nations was set up to stop ALL wars but can they in truth unite ALL the nations to really do that? And since America is said to be a Christian nation, do they have the right to take vengeance on others at any time if they read their Bible right? It does not say, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says" in "Hallowed" name of Pat Robertson, George Bush or any other religious or world leader, does it? (Matt. 6:9 & Rom. 12:19)
Please see website and squeakywheel (about ACLU facts) link first so to give a wise educated answer. I am not trying to be a wise guy, just trying to get ALL on the same page for PEACE & SECURITY! People talk about it from time to time but in truth can they get ALL leaders focused on that one great needed subject and really get it done? Without killing ALL?
