====21st century==== In the 21st century, many discussions of jury nullification center on drug laws, which some consider unjust in principle or because they are seen to discriminate against certain groups.<ref>Fukurai, Hiroshi, and Richard Krooth (2003). ''Race in the jury box: affirmative action in jury selection''. Albany, New York: State University of New York Press. p. 178. {{OCLC|872139501}}</ref> A jury nullification advocacy group estimates that 3β4% of all jury trials involve nullification,<ref name= FIJA /> and a recent rise in [[hung jury|hung juries]] is seen by some as being indirect evidence that juries have begun to consider the validity or the fairness of the laws themselves.<ref name= WashPost />
