I was making a generalization dude, chill out. The finger pointing is annoying, you're making assumptions about me because I don't think people should be killed. I think rats definitely deserve jail, they shouldn't get a free walk just because they're a rat. I don't think they should be murdered. No one should be.

Thanks for putting all the quotes together now it is easily possible to see how pathetic the stand you've pigeonholed yourself into really is. Keyboard warrior with no sense and superiority complex. You've got blood on your hands mf man up and accept the fact. Also, learn when you've lost a pathetic argument that you never understood to begin with, and finally, change your username because you are a thoughtless individual and are simply unworthy of it. Have a nice day mr. Intellectual!

I don't think your opinion is pathetic, I just think it's wrong. Is it so hard to be afforded that same courtesy? Don't I have the right to be wrong? Jeez, you'd think I drowned your cat or something.

Can an opinion be wrong? An opinion may be supported by facts, in which case it becomes an argument, although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts. Opinions rarely change without new arguments being presented.

Right on. A logical "argument" is not the same as a "fight", and I'm getting a lot of hate because my argument opposes the general consensus in this community. No reason to pick fights over an argument. If my opinion makes someone so mad that they want to pick a fight with me, then maybe that person should step away from the keyboard before responding.
Fights aren't very shroomy.

Okaaaay...can we now get back to giving attention to the horrid legal precedent that has been set by the tool of a federal judge?
The federal prosecutors must be walking around with raging hard-ons right now clucking to themselves about what a masterful job they did at ruining a life and carrying injustice to a new level of indecency. It is my fondest wish that every one of their dicks spontaneously explode in their hands.

What can we do about it?
Keep up with the Drug Policy Alliance, take action when they call to action, do what we can to educate people on harm reduction, do what we can to put the right people in office to change the tide. Unfortunately, the only way to change the system is from the inside out, using the tools of the system. Oppose the system radically, and it will destroy you.

What the fuck is the problem with putting a hit out on a guy threatening to turn you in to the government? Seriously, anyone want to explain what is morally wrong with that? It's not like he was going after innocent people. The people he was trying to take out were threatening his livelihood. He had no other options. If you fuck around like that with a guy that powerful, expect to not wake up in the morning?
I see nothing wrong with putting hits out on snitches

Why hasn't the lady who runs backpage been locked up for running a site that sells underage sex slaves? This whole thing makes me mad, but even more so, sad.

And who died? No one. Nothing ever happened. Not one person ever got so much as a scratch. Actual murderers and child rapists get less time. The sentence is unjust. Period.

Of course. There's no sense arguing over the illegality of trying to arrange a murder. I get that. But it NEVER HAPPENED. There are people free in society who HAVE killed others, and spent less than their entire life in jail. THAT is what I'm angry about.

So the long term effect of this case is: Every Marketplace owner will exit scam 1 year or less from starting up.

I think that is a real possibility...and screwing how many people out of how much money when they suddenly shutter their business and disappear?
I gotta go to bed, guys. Spent an exhausting day tripping and hiking. G'night!

Conspiracy to commit murder is, many times, just as bad if not worse than actual murder. It displays criminal intent. MOST murders happen in the heat of the moment, unplanned, in a fit of rage or something. This is premeditated, malicious, evil intent. He seriously WANTED someone to die, in a sober state of mind. That is why contracting a murder is EXTREMELY punishable, even if the murder doesn't occur.

The problem is that the evidence is dubious at best. And Carl MArk Force, the DEA agent who supposedly gathered the evidence for the murder-for-hire, was arrested for corruption.
The whole case stinks to high heaven. Multiple agents were arrested for corruption, the NSA most likely broke the law to obtain the location of SR's servers, and the FBI lied numerous times about how they obtained certain evidence.
Which should be enough to get the whole case thrown out - but not when you have the prosecution and the judge literally working together to crucify you.. which is not supposed to be how the justice system works.
I mean come on - Judge Forrest wouldn't even let Ross *take a glance* at his own family in the courtroom because it might elicit sympathy from the jury.
So she had a bailiff block him from turning around to glance at his family and threatened him with consequences if he tried.
She's a heartless woman who probably thinks the drug war is the best thing since sliced bread (it is paying for her fat checks after all)
But, it's really easy to judge someone you've never met instead of considering the facts.
