I support breaking unjust laws and if jurors knew what nullification is and applied it in terms of unjust laws it'd be no problem.

You support breaking unjust laws? I have 0 sympathy for you and your kind. Breaking unjust laws is more "wrong" morally than the unjust law existing in the first place.
Repeal/change them peacefully, slowly, and legally (See the way Marijuana is headed) the way the system is intended to operate. If you don't like that route people can move to wear that law has no mandate.
Simply breaking them because you think they are "unjust" is wrong and people that do deserve punishment.
Jury nullifications haven't really been a thing in American since the 19th century, they are virtually obselete.
