As a matter of fairness, nullification presents dangers. It was used many times, it seems, as a means to acquit white people of crimes against blacks, during the Jim Crow era. I'm sure there are more examples but this one will do.
I'm not implying its a double edged sword, however nullification shouldn't be applied loosely in any case. Still, I maintain its use is on par with a single vote for office and should be common knowledge amongst the people. I can see why the legal system wouldn't want it to be, but I can't excuse it.
