Jury nullification is the endeavor to gain acquittal nevertheless, in even darkly absurd tacit conspiracy with a sympathetic and complicit jury fully knowing and understanding the defendant to be entirely guilty. Traditionally, jury nullification finds long and ugly application primarily to revenge killings and, indeed, the most blatant and unambiguous forcible rape. So, what possible sympathy could there be for rapists, except from other at least self perceived potential rapists, in fear that anything at all howsoever alarmingly deemed normal or customary and reasonable being in danger of actually becoming treated as actually criminal as under the law? Over every desire or aggravation imaginable, we have all had our feelings toyed with. Should a victim of such actually ever be permitted or even encouraged whatever forceful redress by their own hands?` Or does the very premise collapse under its own weight? In specific, what about implications of forcible rape as ad hoc restorative justice in remedy for blue balls? Seriously: Surely anyone of so pitilessly low a moral standard, may also likely have a similarly either chronically enraged or coldly sociopathicly low threshold of temptation to begin with.
