The Ulbricht family would like to argue that a conviction of Dread Pirate Roberts would 'threaten internet freedom'.

You are not free to use the internet for murder, money laundering, drug sales, et cetera. Why do people think 'internet freedom' means one is free to murder, rape, steal, cheat - over the internet? WTF??? If you do this shit, whether over the internet or over morse code smoke signals - you are going to get popped. Doing something over the internet doesn't mean all laws are nullified.
What a dumbass. That family hired one stupid ass lawyer.
its the same as people that think the freedom of speech means their free to make threats. there is a major difference between expressing an opinion compared to making a personal attack
its the same as people that think the freedom of sexuality means their free to rape.. their is a major difference to socializing in flirtatious manner with someone that is receptive to it. compared to forcing yourself on them using threats or violence.
some people need to learn the words responsibility, and not ignore it any only quote rights.. as they both work hand in hand with each other
