There, I said it. It wasn’t hard. It didn’t hurt. Now, I don’t smoke pot like some people I know smoke pot. I smoke it once in a while, usually socially. I enjoy it. I enjoy partaking with friends. I likely don’t need to state for everyone here the health facts about marijuana use: it’s [...]

This is actually pretty funny.

Jury Nullification: Should Juries Be Informed Of Their Right To Ignore The Law?

Jury nullification is a process by which a criminal jury determines that a law is unconscienable, either morally or as it applies to a specific case, and therefore is to be ignored despite the guilt of the defendant. The US Supreme Court has determined that juries do have the power to nullify, but they also [...]
