    Now your asking them to commit perjury

    Only if they specifically ask “do you know about jury nullification?”

      No, they usually ask something like “Do you have any personal beliefs that would prevent you from returning a guilty verdict involved with this type of crime?” - seriously yall, this shit isn’t hard to look up and is usually posted right alongside explanations for what jury nullification is. Frankly, I doubt anyone reading this is rich enough to pull the “you didn’t specifically ask about jury nullification therefore I technically did not commit perjury”-card.

        Well at least now I know it’s effectively illegal for me to be on a jury for the rest of my life. So that’s cool.
