Why do people think 'internet freedom' means one is free to murder, rape, steal, cheat - over the internet?

I don't believe Ross is being accused of any of those crimes that you so blithely toss in to further confuse the issue.

According to FreeRoss.org, "The murder-for-hire allegation is now an uncharged crime, which does not require proof. It is mentioned in the narcotics trafficking conspiracy section of the indictment. It is NOT a formal charge."

He has not been accused of rape. He has not been accused of stealing. He has not been accused of cheating (I don't think that's a crime).

I encourage everyone to take a look at this:

It would be a shame if the Bitcoin community lets this guy get thrown under the bus in its desire for "legitimacy" and speculative profit.

Personally, I'm really starting to question what behaviors are considered criminal in the USA. Nothing strikes me as more stupid than marijuana prohibition and it seems really wrong to prosecute people stupidly.

Are you serious?

"according to FreeRoss.org" Oh yeah that website certainly isn't going to put a positive spin for freeing Ross now are they? I swear some people just CANNOT CONTEXT. L2Context bro!
