lets turn your silly acusation around, from your position, no wonder we have idiot gun control convictions.

so you would really convict a person of a law you know is not right, that you firmly believe is un-constititutional??? knowing fullwell that this person will be jailed, fined, family broken, job lost, criminal record, etc... you would hope that that bad law be overturned,(but you may do nothing to lobby for its overturning) yet still convict. is that what you are telling us is your duty as a juror????

it is your duty to save persons from conviction of bad law.

to answer your thing about illegals, someone on a jury has that right to vote not guilty, just as they do to vote not guilty on a hate crime trial. I would agreee with one, and not with the other. I believe that becuase one law is good, the other law is bad, no other reason.

now honestly, you wouldn’t really convict someone of a law you believed to be a violation of rights would you???? are you really going to say what ever is law is law, no matter what it is, and all laws must be applied, even the bad ones??? ones that you know are a violation fo the bill of rights??? you would let a man be convicted of breaking one of these bad laws????

Unfortunately I do not think that I will be able to carry you around with me to tell me what laws I should obey and what laws I can violate. By the way, what part of the Constitution makes YOU the sole lawmaker of the country?
