Do you know what jury nullification is?
If you don’t, don’t feel bad—most adults don’t. And that’s not an accident.
Here’s the short version: jury nullification is the power of jurors to vote “not guilty” if they believe a law itself is unjust or being unfairly applied.
(I actually told a cool story about it the other day. Check it out here!)
Anyway, jury nullification is one of the most effective checks the people have against government overreach, but almost nobody talks about it.
Why? Well, because an informed, empowered population is a problem for those who want control. I guess they think it’s dangerous for people to actually know their rights.
But here’s the reality: what’s dangerous isn’t jury nullification.
What’s dangerous is people being kept in the dark about their rights!
This is why we wrote The Tuttle Twins Learn About The Law.
It’s a book based on Frederic Bastiat’s timeless work The Law, and it introduces kids to foundational ideas about justice, government, and individual rights—concepts most adults today were never taught. It even plants the seeds for understanding things like jury nullification, showing kids why unjust laws don’t deserve blind obedience.
If we want a future where people can stand up to tyranny, it starts with teaching our kids these principles now.
The truth is, those in power aren’t going to teach kids to question the system. Why would they?
That means it’s up to parents and grandparents to fill that gap.
That’s why resources like The Law are such important tools!
This book helps kids understand the proper role of government, the importance of protecting individual rights, and how to think critically about which laws should—and shouldn’t—exist. It’s the kind of knowledge that changes the way a generation sees the world.
If you want to raise kids who know their rights, question authority, and stand up for liberty, this is the place to start.

Because the less people know about their rights, the easier they are to control. And I don’t know about you, but I don’t want my kids to ever be under anyone’s control.
