You are a dumbass if you don't get it. And I doubt he tried to have anyone "murdered". Don't believe everything you read...if you manage that somehow with your feeble brain.
As long as the media is not unbiased, we should not believe anything that is pasted out in the mass media. And talking about the American cops, they are very famous for planting the evidence.
Sure - like Ulbricht is just this innocent guy minding his own business when BAM! Cops planted evidence against him. Hahahahaha. Nothing is more clear than the fact that Ulbrict is a drug dealer of the highest order. He is the same as a common drug dealer who employs a little kid on the street to make the handoff. An then argues that the kid was the actual drug dealer. Ulbricht devise the most sophisticated drug trading platform in history and he knew that was its purpose and he benefited to a very high moentary level. These 'tricks' like: 'bitcoin is not money, therefore he is innocent' is completely silly. Ulbricht is a world class drug lord who got caught red handed. Stop screaming if he is convicted, it will destroy internet freedom. You are not free to make drug trading platforms on the internet. Get back to work.
Just to clear a definition up. Ross is not a drug dealer, just as much as bit torrent is not an illegal file. You do with the platform as you will.
I've heard mixed things about the murder charge. I thought it was dropped then not. Anyone?
Anyway, if you want to attack something unjust, go for the War on People, I mean drugs. That seems to be something that just benefits corrupt governments.
What Ross is accused of doing, was actually decreasing violence and allowing people to get what they wanted in a safer way. What someone does with their
own body (barring of course that they are too young to decide) is their business, not your business and certainly not the State's business.
When people judge things based on their legality, which is set from mostly corrupt institutions, they are removing thought, compassion, etc. from the equation and
relying on others morality. That is a dangerous game, please see War and the medals you get to kill.
Sometimes you actually have to break a law to do the right thing. Don't let corrupt governments tell you right from wrong but at the same time, be a compassionate individual.
The reason many Bitcoiners liked Silk Road, was because it weakened the State, much the same way that Bitcoin does.
