“Jury nullification at least has the benefit of being non-violent.”

Not if it’s being used to break the justice system.
Do that, and justice will move to other means. Violent ones.

A question most blacks refuse to ask......sadly......only maybe it should be asked this way:

“Why do blacks kill blacks?”

Because of Whites!

I kid you not. That would be your answer.

The law can be changed at any time. That could be construed as an act of war what she proposes. Another dumb person.

Many don’t even raise their own children. Don’t expect much from any community that doesn’t do that.

“Whites could do the same right ? Yea, lets play.”

I think his entire point is that whites have done the exact same thing and have done it for a very long time.

Do you believe that jury nullification is ever justified?

Let em do it. We’ll just start shooting black criminals instead of calling the cops on them.

***White juries regularly refuse to convict or indict cops for murder. White juries refuse to convict vigilantes who murder black children. White juries refuse to convict other white people for property crimes. White juries act like the law is just a guideline and their personal morality (or lack thereof) should be controlling.***

I disagree with the premise here, and would like to see proof of what he’s alleging.

This actually lies in the ideology and principles of the NOI (which is not Islamic by any means). They have been advocating for their own nation in the middle of the Heartland. One way for them to do this is by segregating their people from everyone else. Soros has been backing this concept as a way to destroy the USA in which he sees as the villain because America joined WWII and helped defeat the Nazis. Soros is a Fourth Reich advocate. What better way to take revenge on the USA than to divide its people and tear it down from the inside.

And maybe his drivers license, and his dog license.

I think you are right, that conversation must have taken place about 1990 give or take.

Thanks for catching that.

i’m wondering how the author managed to write 1500 words about black jury nullification and failed to include one word about the O.J. Simpson trial...
