I support it, but in addition to being able to nullify bad law, they should also be able to declare a law unconstitutional and choose to nullify it on that basis.

When you say "declare a law unconstitutional", I assume you mean only for the purposes of that case. If so I agree with you. If you mean juries should be able to strike entire laws in court cases permenantly, then I don't.
