A judge cannot find a defendant non-guilty by virtue of an unjust law. Only a jury can do that. Trial by jury is the true safeguard against government over reach and tyranny. A judge can assume more power than common law grants him\/her and think he\/she can decide a case but that is not the correct application of the law.<\/p>\n<p>Just think, if every person who violated the present unjust, draconian laws came before a trial by jury of 12 of their peers, the whole debacle would fizzle and fade in no time at all.<\/p>\n<p>No matter who wins elections, trial by jury is the control mechanism that keeps them in check 124\/7. Not just every 4 years.<\/p>\n<p>I encourage you to get behind and support the restoration of common law trial by jury at every opportunity.
