Right...Because we all know that the people expected to enforce the law in the jury box are faaaar too stupid to tell whether the law is just or not.Correct...The final arbiters were meant to be the people, via fully informed and properly empowered juries.Perhaps, but Jefferson said the final arbiter should be the people. If you invoke Jefferson to hold up people and slap down judges, be careful what you wish for. After all, correct me if I'm wrong, but your disdain for democracy seems to arise from the power of the people to vote themselves wealth distribution.
Unfortunately, today's judicial oligarchy is very good at concealing these powers/responsibilities and actively persecuting those who know and exercise them.

Jury nullification is one of the worst ideas ever.
