"And, yes, a juror may be removed if the judge learns that he or she is intending to exercise jury nullification. Consider the 1997 ruling in United States v. Thomas:

We consider below whether a juror’s intent to convict or acquit regardless of the evidence constitutes a basis for the juror’s removal during the course of deliberations under Rule 23(b). ? We also consider what constitutes sufficient evidence of that intent in light of the limitations on a presiding judge’s authority to investigate allegations of nullification required by the need to safeguard the secrecy of jury deliberations. ? We conclude, inter alia, that-as an obvious violation of a juror’s oath and duty-a refusal to apply the law as set forth by the court constitutes grounds for dismissal under Rule 23(b). ? We also conclude that the importance of safeguarding the secrecy of the jury deliberation room, coupled with the need to protect against the dismissal of a juror based on his doubts about the guilt of a criminal defendant, require that a juror be dismissed for a refusal to apply the law as instructed only where the record is clear beyond doubt that the juror is not, in fact, simply unpersuaded by the prosecution’s case."

FIJA works to:
• Inform potential jurors of their traditional, legal authority to refuse to enforce unjust laws
• Inform potential jurors that they cannot be required to check their consciences at the courthouse door
• Inform potential jurors that they cannot be punished for their verdicts
• Inform everyone that juror veto—jury nullification—is a peaceful way to protect human rights against corrupt politicians and government tyranny

Jurors take oaths to follow the law, even if they don't like it. There are ways to change laws we disagree with.

Mucking up the system by lying in an attempt to push your own agenda is not democracy.
