Eminent domain? You don't LIKE certain laws; I don't LIKE certain laws. Overturning them in the jury box is quite another matter.

Eminent domain. Asset forfeiture. Choose your poison.

Jury nullification is a bulwark against such abuse.

And the big brother knows best judges/lawmakers have been attacking that bulwark for many years.

Didn't Jesus warn the Pharisees about laying a heavy burden of laws on the people and being more concerned with appearances than righteousness ?---That could be applied to our lawmakers today.

This thread has certainly illustrated who believes in statism v. constitutional republicanism.
