I hope everyone remembers this is you ever find yourself on a jury in a case like this. You have to find the man totally innocent of all charges and not allow the judge to get a crack at him.

As a citizen I refuse to play by their rules and instructions of guilt or innocence when their rules are unjust. Evidently alot of other people feel the same way, thus the attempt to over rule and do away with jury trials.

Agreed. Being a juror, is the most powerful position in america,we can overrule the legislature, the judges, the president, the governor, the police, etc. Never try to avoid jury duty, and used jury nullification, it is something the founding fathers wanted us to have as a last resort.
