Yet another argument from professional whiners that the people are unable to rationally apply what their alleged representatives enacted for them. I wish all of these people that don't like this idea would just take their superiority someplace other than SD and shut up.

They generally just fail to realize that jury nullification is another check and balance. It doesn't need to be "answerable to the people" because juries are the people.

The best analogy I know of is to simply say that anyone who opposes jury nullification should also support revoking the president's power to grant pardons. It's essentially the exact same power; the only differences are that the president's office abuses it more, while the people have more need of it.
