...an assault rifle stuffed with heroin.
Er.. This, again...
I think the media liks using the most outrageous examples in an attempt to drive pageviews/ratings. I highly doubt that a heroin-stuffed assault rifle will ever be sold for bitcoin in any other context than "See! I told you it could be done!". Both of those items are logistically better handled separately.And anyways, I would much rather that money go to supporting small businesses and charities, and I am fairly certain I am not alone in that. I just don't see a purpose to recreational drug (ab)use.
I sensed a bit of sarcasm when I read that.
Perhaps a bit.
I guess I'm just a bit tired of the media trying to paint us all as druggie ponzie schemers involved in Fast and Furious gun trafficing. There theoretically could be one (or maybe two) of those here, but I am not among them. It seems like every article the media puts out mention drugs, guns, ponzi schemes or all three. The only reasons I can think of for this is ignorance and malevalence, and the more it happens, the more the cynic in me leans toward the latter. Now I'm just ranting. Again.
