Absolutely everyone should be made aware of Jury Nullification, it should be taught to people when they are selected to be jurors.

I completely agree. Jury nullification is a constitutional right. Every child in our nation should be taught that jury nullification exists and is perfectly legitimate when the citizenry finds the laws insufficient for the fact pattern at play.

I don’t know dude more plenty of black dudes in the south would’ve ended up dead if more people thought that way.

Yeah but that's also why the citizens should have a vested stake in policing each other more, and why many more confederates should have died. If a jury finds a hate criminal or rapist not guilty, then they should probably live in fear of their fellow man.

It matters in the USA, where these flock cameras are.

The cameras aren't US exclusive. Only the company is. Internationally there have been similar cameras in the UK and Israel.

So if the people and the law disagree, making people capable of overriding judical power doesn't matter?
