      Yeah we’re not allowed to discuss jury nullification.

        A legal part of the justice system cannot be discussed?

          You can for past crimes, not future crimes.

          If it’s confirmed, I don’t see why not. Depends on the community, of course. I’m sure !lemmybewholesome would remove it.

            Not an American and we don’t have jury system here.

            What’s jury nullification and any notable cases where it was applied?

          We have previously asked moderators to remove content relating to jury nullification when this was suggested in context of murder or other violent crimes. Following a discussion in our team we want to clarify that we are no longer requesting moderators to remove content relating to jury nullification in the context of violent crimes when the crime in question already happened. We will still consider suggestions of jury nullification for crimes that have not (yet) happened as advocation for violence, which is violating our terms of service.

        Not true - we’re just not allowed to discuss jury nullification in the context of encouraging someone to commit a violent felony which includes the promise of absolution through jury nullification.

        Or something, idk. It was kinda weird.

        Jury nullification as two English words that can be spoken one after the other, however, is perfectly allowable.
