Though it’s funny ... it’s misguided IMO. Jury nullification may be one of our last weapons against the tyranny of the government

I fail to see the humor in it. The guy’s a jerk to write something like that and a moron for thinking he wasn’t going to be held accountable for it, an ingrate for not accepting his responsibilities.(I wonder how he would react if he were trying to put together a jury) He should have jailed!

fullyinformedjuries"... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one MAKES them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. ......just pass the the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted -- and you create a nation of law-breakers -- and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."- p.411, Ayn Rand, ATLAS SHRUGGED, Signet Books, NY, 1957 "...

Not to many jury's have enough sense to use it. I would never set on a jury and find in favor of the IRS.

But then I also agree with the man's excuse!!!

Jury nullification is a two edged sword powered by a boomerang.
