Imagine what would happen if jurors discovered that they can call and question witnesses or determine what is and isn’t admissible evidence for themselves.

The whole legal landscape would shift.

The key to understanding how this would allow patriots to recover the Republic is that you only need 1 in 12 to nullify. So, realistically if you could just get every so-called patriot educated.. you win. I don’t blame leftists for my loss of freedom and never have. I blame my ignorant brethren.

“Imagine what would happen if jurors discovered that they can call and question witnesses”

I imagine they would discover that they were in the military and involved in a courts-martial under the UCMJ. The first time I testified in one I was really shocked when a Juror asked me a question. I think it is a very good idea. Cuts through the lawyers BS.
