"KSM is not entitled to a jury trial under our laws. You already know that, so you are arguing dishonestly."

Terrific, pick Hassan - the psychiatrist murdering Major then. He certainly is entitled to a jury trial and all the Constitutional rights of any citizen. Would you defend an act of jury nullification by one of his fellow Muslims that happens to be sitting on his jury? I'll eagerly await your convoluted logic where you say "no".

You apparently do not understand what jury nullification is.

One person in disagreement is not nullification; its merely a ‘hung’ jury. Nullification requires a majority large enough to dissuade further prosecution.

You argue with vagaries, and convince only those as statist, mentally lazy as yourself.
