You're not. If you advance jury nullification ideas within the jury room, you'll be replaced by an alternate (if available, obviously the size of the trial will impact that). Now, there might be different laws in different states on the matter, but the ones I'm familiar with allow removal.
Best thing to do is vote not guilty (assuming the case and charge allow it), and just say you're not convinced past a reasonable doubt.
So how can jury nullification even take place?
I mean, historically used, often everyone agreed "killing that gamer-word was cool and good". That's why there were lots of Federal civil rights trials after local juries refused to convict.
Now, it's more likely that you'll hang a jury rather than get 12 to agree with you, since nullification was cracked down on after all that.
So basically everyone would just have to refuse to convict without it being coordinated?
No, if it's coordinated then no one has to worry about being dimed out to the judge :) but, it's very risky to bring it up openly, so someone has to do it, and it can't be you, since you know you'll vote not guilty. Prisoners dilemma type problem.
ah so just ignore all the old whites and hope everyone else isn't on some uncle tom shit
