An aspirator is a device that makes vacuum, because of the Venturi effect.
In the aspirator, fluid flows through it.
The tube gets more thin, making the fluid flow faster, and making the pressure smaller.
Then, vacuum is taken from it.
The aspirator is also known as an ejector or a filter pump.
The most common type of aspirator is the water aspirator.
It is used in laboratories for chemistry and biology.
The aspirator has a fitted tee, which is attached to a faucet.
It has a hose barb on one side.
The flow of water passes through the straight part of the tee, which restricts the water flow at the intersection with the hose barb.
The vacuum hose should be connected to this barb.
The strength of the produced vacuum is limited by the vapour pressure of the flowing water.
However, the strength of the vacuum is not limited if a gas is used as the working force.
The Venturi effect is a case where fluid flows through a tube that is narrow.
The velocity of the fluid increases as it flows through the narrower tube while the pressure decreases, due to conservation of energy.
The effect is an example of Bernoulli's principle.
With the B.E. a simple flow of either A. Fluids, or B. Air, will cause pressure.
Within an amount of time, this will cause a decrease in pressure and have the potential of creating energy.

It can be divided into three parts: the Pampas in the central part of the country, Patagonia in the southern part down to Tierra del Fuego; and the Andes mountain range along the western border with Chile, with the highest point located in the province of Mendoza.
This article is about a list of retired Atlantic hurricane names.
Atlantic hurricane names only get retired if and when they are notable enough by causing a lot of damage or killing many people.
They can also be retired if and when the government or country requests the name to be retired, by the World Meteorological Organization.

The Asturian language is the native language of Asturias.
Between 200,000 and 600,000 people speak it in Asturias.
This language is very similar to Leonese Language, spoken in other territories that once made up the Kingdom of León (León, Western Zamora, Salamanca and Northwestern Cáceres where is called extremaduran), and to Mirandes Language, spoken in Miranda do Douro in Portugal.
In Asturias, primary and secondary students can choose to study it.
Roman religion joined with Greek religion over time.
This began in the eighth century BC when Greeks colonized Magna Graecia in southern Italy.
The two traditions had joined to the point of being almost the same by the first century BC.

Allen Klein (December 18, 1931 - July 4, 2009) was an American businessman.
He studied to become an accountant, and made his living as the business manager of many celebrities, musicians in particular.
Klein was born in Newark, New Jersey and was of Hungarian Jewish descent.
He married a woman named Betty, after he graduated from college.
He first became well known when he helped a singer, Bobby Darin, to recover money owed to him by his record label.
Darin received a $100,000 check for unpaid royalties, and split it with Klein.
Klein was called the "Robin Hood" of popular music, liked by artists but hated by the companies they worked for.
Klein bought a struggling record label, Cameo-Parkway, and tried to make it more profitable.
When he got into legal trouble for "talking up" the value of shares in the company, he changed his plans.
He merged Cameo-Parkway with his own accounting firm, creating a company called ABKCO (for Allen and Betty Klein and Company).
Among Klein's clients were pop singers Connie Francis, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé, R&B singer Sam Cooke, folk musician Donovan, record producer Phil Spector, and rock bands Herman's Hermits, The Animals, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles.
While he helped his clients with money matters, and to make new contracts that paid them better, not all his business choices were the best for his clients.
Klein ended up owning much of the music of the Rolling Stones, the Animals and other artists, which cut into their long-term earnings.
The artists also sometimes lost the goodwill of the businesses they dealt with, because of Klein's work for them.
Klein played a role in the breakup of the Beatles.
He impressed John Lennon enough to sign up with him overnight, and Lennon persuaded George Harrison and Ringo Starr to go along.
Paul McCartney, though, decided to let his wife Linda's father Lee Eastman become his manager.
Eastman and Klein did not get along, and Eastman treated Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono poorly.
Disagreements on what the Beatles should be doing with their company Apple Corps, and their own business interests, helped to tear the band apart.
After the Beatles broke up, Lennon, Harrison and Starr liked the things Klein did for them less and less, and eventually split with him, giving Klein a final payment of about £3.5 million for his services.
Later, Klein got into tax trouble, and served a two-month jail sentence for income tax evasion.
Klein continued his career, and ABKCO continued to issue records from the old Cameo-Parkway label, and the artists Klein had managed.
Nearly all the records were taken off the market for many years, making classic songs like "96 Tears" (by ?
and the Mysterians), "So Much In Love" by the Tymes, and "Bristol Stomp" by the Dovells impossible to buy.
Klein's son Jody became the controller of ABKCO, when Klein's health became poor.
In 2005, ABKCO finally began to issue digitally remastered compact discs of the music owned by the company.
Klein died in Manhattan of complications from Alzheimer's disease in July 2009.
Mark David Chapman (born May 10, 1955 in Fort Worth, Texas) is an American prisoner.
He is known for murdering British musician John Lennon.
Chapman grew up in Georgia, and was a fan of British band the Beatles when they first became famous.
He learned to play guitar and wanted to become a musician.
He later became a fundamentalist Christian, and his values changed.
He came to believe the Beatles were a bad influence on people, John Lennon in particular, because of Lennon's views on God and religion.
When Lennon released his song "Imagine" in 1971, many fundamentalists disliked it.
Chapman parodied the song, singing it as "Imagine John Lennon dead."
As years went by, Chapman had little success and much trouble in his personal life.
His hopes to become a missionary were dashed when a civil war started in the country where he went on a mission.
He returned to the United States, and later moved to Hawaii.
In 1979, he married a Japanese-American woman, as Lennon had done, but Chapman's marriage was unhappy.
Chapman worked a low-paying job, as a security guard.
Meeting (and murdering) Lennon
In 1980, after years of retirement, Lennon made a new album, Double Fantasy, with his wife Yoko Ono.
Chapman learned from a book where Lennon lived in New York City, and that it was not hard to find him around town.
Chapman flew to New York a few times that fall, thinking about what he wanted to do.
He thought about committing suicide, before deciding finally to kill Lennon.
He felt that doing this would somehow lessen the problems in his own life.
On December 8, 1980, Chapman again visited New York, meeting Lennon and Ono as they left home to go to a recording session.
Lennon signed a copy of Double Fantasy for Chapman, and a photographer took a picture of the two men together.
Chapman waited around until they returned.
As Lennon entered their apartment building, Chapman drew a pistol, called out to Lennon, then shot him several times.
Lennon collapsed, and died later on the way to a hospital from blood loss.
Chapman did not try to get away, and was reading a book, The Catcher in the Rye, when police came to the scene.
They arrested Chapman, who later pled guilty to Lennon's murder, telling the court God had told him to do so.
He was sentenced to twenty-five years to life in prison in 1981.
He later wrote to Yoko Ono, trying to apologize to her and explain his actions, but she did not answer.
In 1985, actor Mark Lindsay Chapman lost the chance to portray Lennon in a movie about his life with Ono, because his name was similar to that of Lennon's killer.
When Chapman became eligible for parole, he applied but was turned down.
Ono gave a statement to the court, telling them that Lennon's death still hurt her and their son Sean Lennon every day, and they still felt his loss.
She reminded them of how Chapman's act was only one among many celebrity stalkings and murders, and that paroling Chapman might give others the idea that what he did was acceptable.
The court heard her words, and Chapman continues to be refused parole.
Lennon's murder was echoed in December 1999 when a young man, Michael Abram, broke into the home of another former Beatle, George Harrison, carrying a knife.
He wanted to kill Harrison for many of the same reasons Chapman killed Lennon.
Harrison and his wife Olivia fought back, however, with Olivia striking Abram with a lamp, and the pair holding him down until police arrived.
Harrison was stabbed by Abram, but he recovered.
Abram was sent to a mental hospital.
It is believed that Chapman will never leave prison in his lifetime, because of the impact of his crime and the many death threats he has received over the years from other inmates and Beatles' fans.
His name has been used in arguments promoting gun control, claiming that he would not have killed Lennon if he could not get a gun. (
It is counterargued, however, that his plan was not simply to shoot Lennon, but to kill him; if he could not have used a gun, he would likely have tried another way.
Abrams's later attack on Harrison supports this argument.)
Many fans of Lennon have threatened to kill Chapman if he was ever released from prison.
In 2000, Chapman said that Lennon would have wanted him to be free, saying "I think he would be liberal, I think he would care."

Diana, Princess of Wales (born Diana Frances Spencer; 1 July 1961 – 31 August 1997) was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales.
She was one of the most famous women in the world.
Diana was a part of the same family of Sir Winston Churchill (Spencer Family)
Diana was born to royalty on 1 July 1961 as Diana Frances Spencerr.
She was born at Park House Hotel in Sandringham, Norfolk, England.
Her father was the Earl Spencer.
She left school when she was 16 and moved to London when she was 18.
Marriage, family and divorce
In 1981, Diana married Prince Charles at St. Paul's Cathedral.
They had two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry.
Charles and Diana separated in 1992, and divorced in 1996.
Diana said Camilla Parker-Bowles was responsible for the problems with her marriage.
Diana was the first Englishwoman to marry an heir to the British throne in 300 years.
Charles' brothers married commoners: Andrew, Duke of York, married Sarah Ferguson in 1986, and his youngest brother, Edward, Earl of Wessex, married Sophie Rhys-Jones in 1999.
The couple had residences at Kensington Palace and Highgrove House, near Tetbury.
On 5 November 1981, Diana's pregnancy was announced.
In January 1982—12 weeks into the pregnancy—Diana fell down a staircase at Sandringham, suffering some bruising, and the royal gynaecologist Sir George Pinker was summoned from London; the foetus was uninjured.
Diana later confessed that she had intentionally thrown herself down the stairs because she was feeling "so inadequate".
On 21 June 1982, Diana gave birth to the couple's first son, Prince William.
She subsequently suffered from postpartum depression after her first pregnancy.
Amidst some media criticism, she decided to take William—who was still a baby—on her first major tours of Australia and New Zealand, and the decision was popularly applauded.
By her own admission, Diana had not initially intended to take William until Malcolm Fraser, the Australian prime minister, made the suggestion.
A second son, Prince Harry, was born on 15 September 1984.
The Princess said she and Charles were closest during her pregnancy with Harry.
She was aware their second child was a boy, but did not share the knowledge with anyone else, including Charles.
Diana gave her sons wider experiences than was usual for royal children.
She rarely deferred to Charles or to the royal family, and was often intransigent when it came to the children.
She chose their first given names, dismissed a royal family nanny (and engaged one of her own choosing), selected their schools and clothing, planned their outings, and took them to school herself as often as her schedule permitted.
She also organised her public duties around their timetables.
Throughout her life, Diana was something of a rebel.
Her work with victims of AIDS could, in some ways, be seen in this regard.
She was one of the first very high profile people to be pictured touching those afflicted with AIDS, and this had a significant impact in changing people's opinions and attitudes to the disease.
It was certainly a charity not following the protocol and tradition of the Royal family.
As Princess Diana said:
“HIV does not make people dangerous to know.
You can shake their hands and give them hug heaven knows they need it”
Diana had a very personable touch.
She was very at ease in meeting people from any background and even if they were ill or in hospices.
The patients would react very favourably to her meetings, they warmed to her life energy and heartfelt sympathy.
Part of her appeal was her sympathy and natural compassion.
She could empathise with people’s suffering, having suffered much herself.
As well as working on charities such as AIDS she lent her name to the campaign to ban landmines.
Her personal support is said to have been a significant factor in encouraging Britain and then other countries to support the Ottawa Treaty which sought to introduce a ban on the use of anti-personnel landmines.
When Robin Cook brought the second reading of the landmines bill to the house in 1998 he made a point of paying tribute to the contribution of Princess Diana.
Diana and her boyfriend, Dodi Al-Fayed, died in a car crash in Paris, France, in the early morning of 31 August 1997.
She was 36-years-old when she died.
Many people left flowers, candles, cards and personal messages for her in public places.
She had a big funeral in London on the 6 September 1997.
Concerts for Diana took place shortly after her death.
The concerts involved Elton John and numerous others.
Elton John released a remake of his song, "Candle in the Wind" in memory of Diana.
1961–1975: The Honourable Diana Frances Spencer
1975–1981: Lady Diana Frances Spencer
1981–1996: Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales
in Scotland: 1981–1996: Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Rothesay
1996–1997: Diana, Princess of Wales
Diana's full title, once married, was Her Royal Highness The Princess of Wales and Countess of Chester, Duchess of Cornwall, Duchess of Rothesay, Countess of Carrick, Baroness of Renfrew, Lady of the Isles, Princess of Scotland.
Legally, she was still entitled to use her previous royal courtesy titles after her divorce as long as she remained unmarried.

Dylan Mark Postl (born May 29, 1986) is an American midget professional wrestler.
He is better known by his ring name Hornswoggle.
Postl is currently working for the WWE.
He was the last WWE Cruiserweight Champion ever.
Postl originally wrestled under the name of "The World's Sexiest Midget" Shortstack.
Prior to working on SmackDown!,
Postl was best known for his work with NWA Wisconsin where he won its X Division Championship.
Postl signed with World Wrestling Entertainment in May 2007.
He is the fourth wrestler from NWA Wisconsin to sign with WWE.
The others were Daivari, Ken Kennedy and CM Punk.
Postl first showed up as the leprechaun partner of the Irish wrestler Finlay on SmackDown!
during the May 26 episode.
After Finlay’s victory over Paul Burchill, a little man (Postl) crawled out from under the ring and jumped on Burchill.
Finlay pulled him off, only to slam him back down onto Burchill again.
For the next few weeks the as-yet unnamed man continued to appear from under the ring after matches.
Eventually, SmackDown!
commentator Michael Cole began calling him the Little Bastard.
The name became popular and became his "official" name.
Commentator JBL refused to call him "Little Bastard".
JBL said, "he might have parents".
He instead called him a leprechaun.
This was confirmed in one edition of SmackDown!
by Finlay.
Little Bastard soon became meaner.
He started attacking during Finlay's matches even though it upset Finlay.
Many times, Finlay either physically shoved Little Bastard back under the ring or was forced to tackle him before he could hit the person he was wrestling.
At one point, Little Bastard attacked Finlay, biting Finlay when Finlay tried to stop him from attacking Gunner Scott.
On February 23, his name was changed to Hornswoggle on WWE's website and all references to the name "Little Bastard" were removed.
The name change became official on the March 2 episode of SmackDown!.
Postl attacked JBL and Michael Cole.
Afterwards, Finlay told Cole that Little Bastard's name is Hornswoggle.
Despite this, Cole continues to occasionally refer to Hornswoggle as "Little Bastard".
On July 22, 2007 at The Great American Bash Hornswoggle won the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.
The other people in the match and commentators did not know that he was a participant in the match until the pin and he was given the belt.
This made him the first person with dwarfism to win a Championship in WWE history.
Hornswoggle is both the lightest and the shortest wrestler to win the Cruiserweight Championship in WWE history.
He is also the smallest wrestler to win any title in WWE.

A sand filter is a layer of sand which is used to clean water of bacteria and other microorganisms.
It is a type of filter.
A layer of sand or gravel is used when sewage goes through  sewage treatment.
Before sewage comes to the bacteria bed, it should already have gone thru part of the sewage treatment.
At the bacteria bed, sewage gets exposed to (or has contact with) air, while microorganisms make some change to that sewage.
The oxygen in the water kills the microbes, which are anaerobic.
The name "bacteria bed" is sometimes used about this type of filter.
A filter is a device used to remove unwanted parts from something.
For example, removing solid particles from a liquid.
Filter can also mean the act of filtering: it can be used as a verb.
The different branches of science and technology often mean a particular kind of device when filter is mentioned.
In chemistry
The simplest filter is the kind called filter paper.
Liquids can pass through the paper.
Solid particles are stopped.
More advanced filters are possible.
Two that are often used to make water more pure are activated carbon and zeolites.
In electrical science
The most usual thing meant by filter in electrical science is a wave filter.
One common kind lets through some frequencies and stops all others.
This is a band pass filter.
For instance, in a radio it can select the radio station the listener wants to hear.
The frequency of that station is passed, but all others are rejected.
There are digital filters which can be used to filter things besides frequencies.
A common use is to improve the quality of pictures.
For instance, there are filters which can make the edges of objects look more clear.
In optics and photography
Optical filters act on light.
They change it certain ways.
This can be used for photographic filters.
In mechanics
Filters can be made from mechanical components.
They will do very similar things to electric filters.
Most especially, mechanical filters can be wave filters.
That is, they can block some frequencies and pass others.
Because of this, electric filters are sometimes made by first making a mechanical filter.
The electric wave is turned into a mechanical movement, then passed through the filter, then turned back in to an electric wave.
This kind of filter is often made from quartz crystals.
A device which changes electrical signals into mechanical signals is called a transducer.
A device which changes mechanical signals into electrical signals is also a transducer, but one of a different kind.
In information technology
An internet filter removes certain kinds of information.
For example, certain words can be blocked.

The first bridge across the Brahmaputra river is situated at the northwest perimeter of the city.

Henry Clay, Sr. (
April 12, 1777 – June 29, 1852) was an American politician from Kentucky.
He served in the House of Representatives (as Speaker), in the Senate, and was Secretary of State.
He ran for President several times but never won.
He wanted the United States to fight the British in the War of 1812.
After years in the Democratic-Republican Party he started the Whig Party to oppose Andrew Jackson.
He helped pass the famous compromises over slavery leading up the Civil War, including the Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850.
He is considered to be one of the greatest Senators in United States history.
Henry Clay was born on April 12, 1777, at the Clay farmhouse in Hanover County, Virginia, in a story-and-a-half frame house.
It was an above-average home for a common Virginia planter of that time.
At the time of his death, Clay's father owned more than 22 slaves, making him part of the planter class in Virginia (those men who owned 20 or more slaves).
He also ate copious amounts of cabbage to survive the cold winter months.
Henry was the seventh of nine children of the Reverend John Clay and Elizabeth Hudson Clay.
His father, a Baptist minister nicknamed "Sir John," died four years after his birth in 1781.
The father left Henry and his brothers two slaves each, and his wife 18 slaves and  of land.
Henry Clay was a second cousin of Cassius Marcellus Clay, who became an abolitionist in Kentucky.
The widow Elizabeth Clay married Capt.
Henry Watkins, who was a loving stepfather.
Henry Watkins then moved the family to Richmond, Virginia.
Elizabeth had seven more children with Watkins, having sixteen.
His stepfather secured Clay employment in the office of the Virginia Court of Chancery, where he showed a skill for law.
There he became friends with George Wythe.
Wythe chose Clay as his secretary.
After Clay was employed as Wythe's faculty for four years, the chancellor took an active interest in Clay's future; he arranged a position for him with the Virginia attorney general, Robert Brooke.
Clay received no formal legal education but, as was customary at the time, "read the law" by working and studying with Wythe, Chancellor of the Commonwealth of Virginia (also a mentor to Thomas Jefferson and John Marshall, among others) and Brooke.
Clay was admitted to practice law in 1797.
After starting his law career, on April 11, 1799, Clay married Lucretia Hart at the Hart home in Lexington, Kentucky.
She was a sister to Captain Nathaniel G. S. Hart, who died in the Massacre of the River Raisin in the War of 1812.
Seven of Clay's children died before him and his wife.
By 1835 all six daughters had died of many conditions, two when very young, two as children, the other two as young women: from whooping cough, yellow fever, and complications of childbirth.
Henry Clay, Jr. was killed at the Battle of Buena Vista during the Mexican-American War.

Daniel Webster (January 18, 1782 – October 24, 1852) was an important American statesman.
He first became famous because of his defense of New England shipping interests.
In his life, he became more and more nationalistic, and convinced many people to become nationalists too.
This made Webster one of the most famous orators and powerful Whig leaders of the Second Party System.
Webster did not like slavery, but he thought it was more important for the Union (the United States) to stay together than anything else.
Webster became the northern member of a group known as the "Great Triumvirate".
They included his colleagues Henry Clay from the west and John C. Calhoun from the south.
His "Reply to Hayne" in 1830 was generally seen as "the most eloquent (powerful, fluent, well-spoken) speech ever delivered in Congress."
Webster tried to keep the nation from civil war, and make them have a firm peace.
His efforts did not succeed, but he was still respected for them.
He was officially named by the U.S. Senate in 1957 as one of its five best members.
Daniel was born on January 18, 1782.
His parents were Ebenezer and Abigail Webster (née Eastman) in Salisbury, New Hampshire, now part of the city of Franklin.
He and his nine siblings grew up on his parents' farm.
Daniel Webster's great-great-grandfather was Thomas Webster (1631–1715).
Thomas Webster was born in Ormesby St. Margaret, Norfolk, England and settled in New Hampshire.
As Daniel was a "sickly (unhealthy) child", his family often let him have whatever he wanted and he didn't have to work on the farm.
Daniel Webster became a lawyer and politician.
He was elected to Congress as a Federalist.
He supported free trade, opposed both Abolitionism and the expansion of slavery, and opposed the War of 1812 and other policies of the Democrats.
When the Federalist Party declined, he joined with other former Federalists and National Democrats to form the Whig Party (United States).
Always Webster supported the unity and harmony of the nation against various divisive schemes.
The Catcher in the Rye is a novel by author J. D. Salinger.
It was first published in 16 July 1951.
The book is about a young man, Holden Caulfield, who travels home after being expelled from an exclusive preparatory school.
Instead of going directly home, Caulfield takes a wandering trip, thinking about what he wants to tell his family, and how best to deal with being kicked out of school.
Caulfield narrates the story himself, to a psychoanalyst. (
Hints are made as the story moves forward, that he is in a mental hospital.
At the end of the book this is revealed.)
The book contains many profanities, and many people do not like the book for that reason.
It was banned in many places.
Other people see the profanity as Caulfield's way of showing his feelings of frustration and isolation with life.
Many young people, boys in particular, relate to the story and its language, and feel that Caulfield would understand them if he knew them.
For this reason, many schools require their students to read it.

His hits included "Mack the Knife", "Dream Lover", "If I Were a Carpenter", "Splish Splash", and "Beyond the Sea".
He also helped Wayne Newton begin his musical career.

His record company paid up, and Darin split the money with Klein.
Darin was married to actress Sandra Dee from 1960 to 1967.
They had a son, named Dodd.
Darin died late in 1973 after heart surgery.
In 2004, a movie, Beyond the Sea, was made about Darin's life and career.

The idea of justification is found in several books of both the Old Testament, and New Testament.
Protestants believe justification is the line that divided the Roman Catholics from the Protestants during the Reformation  Martin Luther and other reformers taught that faith alone made a person right with God, apart from doing good works.
However, they taught that after they were justified by faith, good works would follow.
Catholics tended to stress that the good works were part of what made a Christian acceptable to God.
In recent times these two positions have come closer together.
Jury nullification is a jury on purpose ignoring evidence or refusing to apply the law as explained in the jury instructions.
A jury may feel the application of the law is unfair, unjust, or immoral in some way or may want to "send a message" about some social issue.
It is clear that juries have the power to nullify.
However, it is another question on if they have the right to nullify.
Once the verdict of not guilty is returned, double jeopardy applies and so the defendant cannot be tried again.
If a judge learns that a juror intends to nullify the verdict, the judge has the right to remove that juror.
Typically, jurors are not told by the court that they have the power to nullify.
Judges fear if they told jurors they would have jury anarchy on their hands with jurors doing whatever they please.
However, jury nullification can provide valuable feedback and is sometimes useful if it is used wisely.
Jury nullification goes back to the beginnings of the jury system in England as established by the Magna Carta in 1215.
The practice came to the United States during the colonial period.
The case thought to be the precedent for jury nullification in the US is that of John Peter Zenger in 1735.
He was put on trial for seditious libel.
Zenger had criticized the governor in his newspaper, The Weekly Journal.
Trying everything he could to insure a guilty verdict, the governor even had Zenger's lawyers disbarred to prevent him from having legal representation.
But the jury refused to convict him, going against the judge's orders.
Discriminatory acquittal
An example of discriminatory acquittal is when jury nullification is used to punish female rape victims by allowing their rapists to go free.
The same is true of female victims of domestic violence.
The "appropriateness" of a female victim's behavior in court can a great deal to do with how a jury will act, according to studies on the subject.
Another example is the 1991 case of Rodney King.
King was an African-American man who was beat up by police officers on videotape.
The jury acquitted the police officers of beating him up even though they watched the video in court.
Arguments against jury nullification
Jury nullification can be a way for a jury to express their own prejudice and bias.
Examples include all-white juries enforcing Jim Crow laws on black defendants while letting white defendants who committed racial crimes against blacks go free.
Also, it can seem unfair to allow one defendant to go free for committing the same crime while another defendant is convicted, just because one jury decided to nullify the law.
This challenges the concept of equal protection under Fourteenth Amendment.
In the 1895 Supreme Court decision Sparf v. United States the Court ruled that judges did not have an obligation to tell jurors about jury nullification.
The decision did not say judges could not tell jurors about nullification or that jurors did not have that power.
They only said judges were not required to tell jurors.
This led to the now common practice of judges in the U.S. penalizing defense attorneys who try in any way to present a nullification argument.
Arguments for jury nullification
When a jury lets guilty people go free, it is called jury nullification.
When a prosecutor decides not to charge a guilty person of a crime, it is called "prosecutorial discretion".
Prosecutors are legal professionals while jury members are not.
However prosecutors are also politicians and may make politically motivated decisions or may be corrupt.
Judges will often instruct a jury to return a verdict based on the merits of the case and not the merits of the law.
But one argument is that juries have a responsibility to decide if they think the law is wrong in a particular case.
A person who overreacts when seeing someone commit a crime may be guilty of a crime themselves.
For example, if a child is killed by a drunk driver and the father then kills the drunk driver, according to law the father may be guilty of murder.
The same is true if a man seeing someone sexually assaulting his wife or daughter and beats the attacker to death (in many jurisdictions).
A jury is made up of people who live in a community.
They can decide to let someone go free if they think is it safe to do so.
