If 12 of one's fellow citizens refuse to deliver a conviction, what do you propose to do about it?

It's not jury nullification. It's simply a jury deciding that porn is not "patently offensive."

We have to give them credit for learning from the liberals --what you can't win by the will of the people, look to the courts (or jury) for your victories.

Jury nullification is big with the libertarians anarchists on the drug threads. They'd like to make it mandatory for every judge to read it to every jury -- like a Miranda warning: "You have the right to free this scumbag drug dealer if you don't like our drug laws" type of thing.

Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel? Nope. Jury nullification is.
