Jury Duty in Doylestown...
Well.. I got selected for Jury Duty in January. I'm definitely not looking to be the test case for "I have a weapon, can you put it in a storage locker.
Regardless, has anyone tried carrying to a courthouse and asking the gaurd to secure your weapon?
And.... What can I expect when being on a Jury?

Re: Jury Duty in Doylestown...
Yes, I enter the county court house armed all the time---they have lock boxes and the "guard" for lack of a better word hands hand me a key whenever he sees me.
The Sheriffs office is in the court house and business there a good bit.
Darn must be nice to get jury duty---any time I get called, I call them back and they tell me that I am disqualified for jury duty---darn I would like to sit on a jury.

Re: Jury Duty in Doylestown...
Congratulations on your Jury Duty notification.
You are the last check and balance in the system.
PLEASE, inform yourself to your rights of "Jury Nullification"
I've gotten called for Jury Duty three times this year.
Too bad I havent lived in the state of Delaware for about six years. I wonder why they keep on calling me.==============

Had jury duty earlier this year, if you are picked bring some reading material or your laptop.
If you carry, lock your firearm in the courthouse I would not trust in vehicle due to the amount of auto and foot traffic going through the parking lot or on the side streets.

Surprised nobody brought up civic responsibilities as a citizen. I've been called for jury duty a few times (but never picked) however as with voting, I consider it a solemn duty and serve with pride.
