The selfsame people at FR who argue for prohibitions & insane tax codes , argue against nullification.

You obviously haven't read the entire thread, paine. I encouraged at least two posters to use it, if they saw fit. No one can take away anyone's right to declare a defendant not guilty if they don't like the law.

But, your fellow jurors may not agree with you, and an appellate court may also disagree with you.

I have a feeling you don't get picked for many juries anyway, paine.

Wrong. I've read every post and answered all rational questions addressed to me.. Which is more than you can say.
- Your favorite ploy is to ignore the tough questions sinky.. We all notice..

If my generality on nullification doesn't fit you, sinky, -- congrats..

I'd take my chances, sinky, but your side on this issue wants to outlaw nullification.. Admit it, fess up..

Tell someone who cares.
