I don't know if that's more genetic fallacy or poisoning the well. Possibly both. "Their failure to do so in fact breaks the law." Well, no kidding. The whole idea behind jury nullification is to prevent people from going to jail because of unjust laws. Are we supposed to be surprised that the same system that has an unjust law makes it against the law to refuse to enforce an unjust law? Why not just make it against the law for juries to find proponents of jury nullification innocent? Jury nullification would not have that great of an effect, and it certainly wouldn't make society "fall apart". It would affect one trial by jury at a time. In each one you would have to convince 11 other people that a law was unjust, if just one was convinced of the law's correctness and the defendant's guilt, you'd have a hung jury.
