I've served on 3 juries and returned verdicts on 2 of them.
Yes, it's my civic duty, but for awhile there, I was being called every frickin' year. Finally I told them I knew a prosecutor for the city (true) and guess what, I was never called again.
So go for it, but the downside (besides being there) is the reality doesn't measure up to TV, especially when you get a rape, beating and beating, like I did.

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C.
