Called " jury nullification", which the judge will order/threaten the defense lawyers they can't tell the jury they can do that (and they won't). Then the judge "orders" the jury that if you find from the facts the defendent did break a law (with which you disagree) , then you MUST still vote guilty. Then from what I've heard, if the judge hears nullification is being discussed by the jury, he or she will likely make additional "stop talking about" orders and start threatening jurors, too.

I remember an incident that happened in Texas over 20 years ago. A man's car was being repo'd, and he shot the repo man. He later used an old law that basically equated his vehicle to a horse as defense which allowed horse thieves to be shot if caught stealing a horse, and he won.

[@wesrurede]

I would assume with the several felonies committed in the first few seconds of video shown, against the homeowner, a citizens arrest would be a real world potential repercussion.

The three armed felons were within the curtilage of the property and commenters are missing the fact that carport is attached to the house which is basically a garage without walls.
