you are right that we can not blame to bitcoin and any currency can be used for any type activity so its depend on people good people will be use any currency for good activity and bad people will be use their currency for bad activity.
Each people does spend and use regular markets to make their transactions, but people that sell drugs and forbidden products can do the same at those marketplaces, soo dark marketplaces get interest and people do busines with any crypto and with fiat not a surprise at all.

Yes, it depends on individual mindsets and the purpose for which the person intend to use bitcoin. Bitcoin is not actually meant to be used for illegal activities but to provide some for of privacy,freedom and simplicity in terms of financial transaction. I have never use bitcoin for illegal activities and I do not think I will ever. 
Every currency is used for illegal and legal purposes. Its the people who and for what purposes they use it. As BTC is a digital currency and can be transferred anywhere without the knowledge of anyone else, it has much chance to use for illegal activities. Though the one knows it is illegal, he/she still goes beyond to use the btc for illegal. None can stop unless he/she stops himself.
Yes. And not only is it used for illegal activities but its pseudo-anonymous nature also encourages certain adopters to entertain a level of immorality which they would not otherwise promote under their real world identities. Those are facts....the question is: are those facts hurtful to the bitcoin economy and do they reflect the attitude of the community as a whole?
While it’s true that when you give some level of anonymity to a person, that person will do things that probably he will not do if his identity is known, we are talking about criminal activities here, I really doubt that those that sell illegal stuff are any better in the real world.
We all know that owning bitcoins is so advantageous. Unfortunately, these advantages has been fully abused by some.
Since bitcoin is known for its anonymity, people take advantage to it. People tend to use bitcoins for transactions of some illegal activities. For instance, purchasing or acquiring illegal drugs. Some may use bitcoins as mode of payment to hide its real identity because all you just need is a wallet to make transaction. No other personal informations. That's the sad ang alarming part.

i do not think that bitcoin can be use for illegal activity because bitcoin is very modern currency and there is a lot of modern mind people are using bitcoin for their business so we can not blame to bitcoin and i think bitcoin is very good than other investment .
are you in your mind mate? bitcoin was designed to be use inside the darkweb which cater many illegal activities, though bitcoin already adopted which now used in many other form of transaction we can't say is not use in illegal activities since bitcoin is currency and every currency can be used illegally.

If we consider the payment of erotic or pornography material on the Internet, there is a lot of pros and cons. The fact that the pay bitcoin is very profitable because of the anonymity, but there is still banned for files that can be punished by law.
If you don't think bitcoin can be used for illegal activities then how do you explain all the darknet marketplaces that have been accepting bitcoin as payment since 2010, it's basically how bitcoin got it's start and the man we have to thank for that is currently being illegally held in a US jail (he should at least be on bail pending a retrial due to all the corruption in the case)
Yes its actually disappointing that the some of the agents investigating the Silk Road case are now in prison for stealing Bitcoin,
yet Ross William Ulbricht remains in prison.
(However, not surprising)
If you have ever had the police get on the stand and testify against you, swear to tell the truth, and lie to the judge and jury,
you will realize how helpless you are against the police state. Normal citizens have no rights once a person in a position of authority decides to use their power against you.

Anonnymous thing... Well, drugwar is a broken cause to support.
