Literally one of the best movies of all time.

Does this bit not seem questionable?

I think the argument is more, “Sir, I’m the manager at this Walmart and I have no idea what these people were exchanging amongst themselves in the back aisle.”

Either way, double life + 40 years is a bullshit sentence for what this is.

Woah, woah woah. You need to check you facts on this one. He was not sentenced for having people killed. He was publicly accused of murder for hire, but not charged. He was sentenced for running a website and the judge wanted to “make an example”

By all means link me a source that shows he was convicted of murder for hire if you think you can find one, but I can already tell you that you can’t.

I agree that Trump doesn’t care about the fentanyl issue. If he did, he’d be ending the war on drugs.

I would like to point out, Ross Ulbricht wasn’t sentenced for selling/trafficking drugs though. He was sentenced for running a website, to double life plus 40 years in prison without possibility of parole. It was a bullshit sentence that came at the end of a trial of questionable integrity. The fact that neither Obama or Biden pardoned him is one more embarrassment for the Democrats.

Are there crypto scams? yes, and plenty of them. Can you buy drugs with them? sure (and I thinks that’s great!) Do either of the above statements get at the core issue here? not at all.

The issue here is not with the crypto itself. The issue here is the same issue that is regularly a problem anywhere software is deployed, digital security. The take away here is that many (all?) crypto exchanges are failing to properly secure their systems. Which is why the general rule that anybody investing in crypto should follow is never keep crypto in an exchange wallet unless you plan on trading it in the very short term. As an extension of that rule, you should never keep your crypto in a wallet that you don’t hold the private keys for. If you don’t have the private key for the wallet, it’s not your wallet. Not your wallet, not your crypto.

Red Cards / Tarjetas Rojas | Immigrant Legal Resource Center | ILRC

All people in the United States, regardless of immigration status, have certain rights and protections under the U.S. Constitution. The ILRC’s Red Cards help people assert their rights and defend themselves in many situations, such as when ICE agents go to a home. Special thanks to our many partners who contributed translations in the various languages now available, making these red cards accessible to more individuals.

…and pair that with “this is what you voted for when you voted third party or stayed home, to say nothing of directly voting for this mess,”

Lol, if that’s the approach the Dems are going to go with, I hope you loooove the current Republican regime. Attempting to shame people into voting for you is not likely to win much support.

I’d argue that the will of the people has no correlation with what is moral. The will of the people can be just as immoral as the will of an autocrat. Tyranny of the majority is no better than tyranny of the few when it’s your neck the boot presses down on.
