People that advocate jury "nullification," while often well-intentioned, sometimes don't realize that what they are really advocating is lawlessness and something that is actually contrary to the principles upon which our country was founded. Do we really want to live in a society in which jurors can simply choose to ignore laws that they don't agree with? Why have a legislature at all? And if I can choose to acquit because I don't like the law, what's to keep me from convicting an innocent person because I don't like what he did, even if not a violation of the law? It is NOT the job of the jury to veto legislation. It's the job of the jury to determine the facts from the evidence and to apply the law to those facts in determining whether the govnerment (executive branch) has met its burden of proof. Nullification is the process by which Klan members were acquitted of lynching blacks despite overwhelming evidence of guilt. Not something I can support.
