    So you established that lying under oath is illegal. So the knowledge of how jury nullification works and answering that you have no idea / intention to do it when you do is illegal. So now in the context of this thread - calling people to knowingly lie under oath and nullify the jury is illegal. You even called it “naughty stuff”. So stop being a pedant and saying “oh but people might not know about it and do it” yeah, they can. Doesn’t mean someone spreading the info on how to do it and encouraging it isn’t calling for a crime to be committed.

      In reference to the comment from the mod. Stop taking my words out of context.

      We are discussing legal terms here. Jury nullification is not illegal. Lying under oath is. They are two separate things. Declaring that jury nullification is illegal is wrong.

      calling people to knowingly lie under oath

      Would you kindly point to any instance where I advised lying under oath?
