Lysander Spooner: “Men have also a natural right to convey their natural rights of property from one person to another.”

One answer is, that this power, which juries have of judging of the law, is not a power of absolute decision in all cases.

And he can rightfully be held to no greater knowledge of the law than this.

In this manner all unjust laws are established, and made operative against the rights of the people.
