Jury Nullification Free Speech

This Christopher Daley guy is a blowhard, un-American, ignoramous.

The cop who shows up is also a blowhard, un-American, ignoramous, but at least he showed a little bit of humility in upholding free speech rights in the end. But a lot of people would just cave in for the cop and not stand up for themselves and their rights would be trampled. I’m glad these guys didn’t.

Jury nullification is where jurors refuse to convict a suspect, because their personal opinion is that the law is unjust or being applied incorrectly–even if they believe the suspect is guilty. You can find out more about that at fija.org.
