Jury nullification, a great American tradition, that you
won't be told about in court. A jury is allowed to judge
the defendant and the law. The Judge will tell you to decide
if the defendant violated the LAW as written, the jury has
the right, duty and power to also judge the LAW and its
application in order to render Justice. If the jury is only
allowed to decide that the law was violated, the jury will
become part of the tyranny and not the shield that the
Founders wanted.
