I think the odds of me getting picked for jury duty at all are pretty slim, but I can't say I would run away from it. I think I live in a place where the total event is unlikely at least right now. I guess a federal jury pool might still take me into Houston. Much more likely there if anywhere.
If I were on the jury pool, I would hope I would do the right thing as I saw it. I would not want to go through the rest of my life lamenting a bad decision or that I avoided doing what I thought was right because I was afraid. At least, that is what I say now with no kids to worry about. Never been faced with active threats like that myself.
Either way, engineer, gun owner, LTC license holder, etc. If they ask me a bunch of questions, I doubt I would get selected.
