Ever since I decided to be honest and up front about my opinion of the judicial system, I have not had to worry about serving on a jury.
Even the suggestion of the possibility of jury nullification makes all the major players' (judge, defense attorney and prosecutor) heads explode.
Just because something is deemed a law, doesn't mean it is immune to misapplication or abuse.

And nullification is a bulwark against laws we the people don’t agree with as well.

Very true, and just because there’s a law it doesn’t mean that it is valid.
