Lysander Spooner: “There would be substantially the same reason in enacting mathematics by statute, that there is in enacting natural law.”

In nearly or quite all the States of the United States the juries are illegal, for one or the other of the same reasons that make the juries in England illegal.

All other laws, it is optional with each man to obey, or not, as he may choose.

Practically speaking, no government knows any limits to its power, except the endurance of the people.

It was simply, that they would neither convict the innocent, nor acquit the guilty.
