I've found that the easiest way to get out of it is during the voir dire section. They'll go over the laws relevant to the case and ask if you understand the law and agree with it or whatever. I normally just come up with some semi-sensible, but sometimes rather ridiculous way to disagree with the law in question.

I was once summoned for a case of a woman contesting her speeding ticket. I told them I thought speed limits were too low as it is.

Another time, I was summoned for a case about aggravated sexual assault against a child. Someone else brought up that they think the defendant is guilty since they're at this point and couldn't be a fair juror. I raised my hand to say that I agree with that notion.
