The judges always try to do that. Its funny though, they cant sit n the jury room. And a juror cannot be held to answer for their vote, except something like bribery.

Its a POWERFUL weapon we need to use as conservatives.

Here's an interesting quote from the supreme court regarding who holds greater power, the people or the supreme court.

Justices GRAY and SHIRAS, UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT (Dissenting opinion, Sparf and Hansen v. U.S., 156 U.S. 51, 154-155 (1894)): "The report shows that, in a case in which there was no controversy about the facts, the court, while stating to the jury its unanimous opinion upon the law of the case, and reminding them of 'the good old rule, that on questions of fact it is the province of the jury, on questions of law it is the province of the court to decide,' expressly informed them that 'by the same law, which recognizes this reasonable distribution of jurisdiction,' the jury 'have nevertheless a right to take upon themselves to judge of both, and to determine the law as well as the fact in controversy.'"
