    Do you say the same about jury duty?

    In my opinion, as long as the system for who is required to participate is fair and equitable, then it’s fair to consider it a civil duty.

      the system for who is required to participate has practically never been fair and equitable, jury duty is not comparable to military service, and forced labour is slavery

      civil jury duty is a really weird example to use anyway, since civil jury trials are practically non existent outside the USA
