WINNING. THE PLANT REPRESENTS NEW GROWTH. WE ALL HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WORLD.
It took a long time but it was worth every moment
now advocate for the release of most black prisoners
My part will always be to make it clear that what he did cannot be illegal
He literally broke the law and lead one of the top illegal websites of all time
Are you retarded or trolling? In any case, fuck off to my mutelist where you can say hello to your buddy frphank. I prefer to keep my Nostr experience free from disgusting statists like you.
He literally ran one of the top illegal websites of all time and was convicted of many crimes
Silk Road emerged as the most sophisticated and extensive criminal marketplace on the Internet, serving as a sprawling black-market bazaar where unlawful goods and services, including illegal drugs of virtually all varieties, were bought and sold regularly by the site’s users.
Ulbricht also demonstrated a willingness to use violence to protect his criminal enterprise and the anonymity of its users, soliciting six murders-for-hire in connection with operating the site, although there is no evidence that these murders were actually carried out.
Ulbricht, 31, of San Francisco, California, was convicted of the following seven offenses after a four-week jury trial: distributing narcotics, distributing narcotics by means of the Internet, conspiring to distribute narcotics, engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise, conspiring to commit computer hacking, conspiring to traffic in false identity documents, and conspiring to commit money laundering.
It's a good thing Nakamoto never revealed his identity… amazing
What crimes did Nakamoto commit?
Create an alternative to money without state control, which is what some criminals trade with
but what real crimes ? Bitcoin is not illegal. Governments are even investing in it
We can apply almost all of the things you mentioned before to Nakamoto…
The only justification is: the government says that this is not a crime
Nakamoto did not break any laws. His dream came true.
Ross wsa a computer gangster basically doing bad shit that broke many laws.
Can't compare the two
All the accusations involve him indirectly just for being the creator of the website, such logic should lead Durov and many other CEOs to jail
Hence the comparison with Nakamoto, he cannot be judged by what other users do with his creations

TAKE HIM IMMEDIATELY TO NOSTR!!!
The best pic of him walking free baby! Yay!
Love to see it.

nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx get Ross on Nostr ASAP!
Let's fucking party! This week is so wild and we have not even reached the middle of it! Be free Ross!
Might anyone have a link to an article or documentary or something about his story? I don't know much about it and where to start. I hear conflicting things.
Thanks for the link!
I'm happy for him, but I do not agree with his actions on the dark web. He crossed a line according to the law, but two life sentences were ridiculous.
Free markets for free people.
Everything else is socialism.
Murder for hire and six deaths
Prosecutors also claimed Ulbricht was willing to use violence to protect his criminal enterprise.
They said he solicited six murders-for-hire - including one against a former employee - although there was no evidence any of these actually took place and Ulbricht was never tried for them.
The former employee has also voiced support for the campaign to free Ulbricht, and said he did not believe he was dangerous.
Six deaths were connected to drugs sold on the site. Among them, was a 27-year-old Microsoft employee who was found unresponsive in front of his computer, which was logged into Silk Road. He had died of a heroin and prescription drug overdose.
Two sixteen-year-old boys, one from Australia and one from California, both died from taking 25i-NBOMe, a powerful synthetic drug designed to mimic LSD (and commonly referred to as "N-Bomb") that they had bought on the site.
What's that about? What do you want to tell me?
I mean, there are a lot of death related to the selling of kitchen knifes, too.
Is walmart responsible then?
😂😂
In that case anymore is innocent right? If I I kill your child im also innocent? Because my shoes can be sold anywhere right?
Drugs fuck with your mind. That's the main issue. They make you do things a normal being usually don't do.
Drugs don't fuck your mind.
Users fuck their mind when they use drugs without responsibility.
I know/knew SO MANY drug addicts (most are dead by now).
ALL OF THEM had a fucked up childhood (sexual abuse, No father, alcoholic father, beatings, you name it).
You can't ban drugs (there are drugs even in totally controlled environments like prisons).
You can just stop criminalizing them, so price goes down, quality goes up, Cartels loose their selling point.
A drug addict will take anything, when all is banned they just take alcohol.
They all have a problem BEVORE they go drugs, they take drugs to make life bearable.
It's not on people to decide what other people do with their own body.
Just stop robbing people ('taxes') and redistributing it to 'people in need'.
Remembe when cocaine was still legal? Remember when that stuff was inside CocaCola?
They all gone mad as hell, right? Oh wait - they didn't.
They just bought some Coke and Heroin ('Cough Sirup') and enjoyed live.
I agree. However, Ross Ulbricht knew he was breaking the law in his country. He should have either moved to another country where his website would be considered legal or refrained from doing it altogether. That was my point at the start of this conversation.
Well, I don't think Ross signed a contract or anything.
These "laws" he broke are worth nothing, they are imposed one-sided from "the government" and you can't opt out.
This is totalitarian.
He is a native american, born in texas. Why should he move?
Censoring a marketplace is the same as censoring free speech.
You and you alone are responsible for your actions.
If you use a car to kill somebody, neither the car manufactor nor the car dealer is responsible.
People kill people, not drugs or weapons or marketplaces.
Drugs fuck with your mind. They make you do things you normally not wouldn't consider
And the state should decide what I am doing with my own body and put me in jail for buying and consuming magic mushrooms or weed? In fact, alcohol and cigarettes are worse drugs. Especially alcohol kills many people all around the world, often those who are not even involved in consuming alcohol (car accidents). Magic mushrooms have no harm to the physical human-body. It's just, they are breaking the barriers of the brainwashed mind and can be mind-expanding and damaging to the government, who is very happy to keep this barriers shaped and intact That's why they are prohibited almost everywhere in the world.

His smile is infectious. Great job very happy for Ross. amazing!

Talk about waiting for a more dramatic impact, the orange man likes making a statement just as we were beginning to doubt him. This is awesome, much better than an SBR, because it is about self custody and personal responsibility, and I have my own SBR (until it went to the bottom of a lake, fack)

About time
When I was in an existential crisis in 2015, writing my master’s thesis about Bitcoin, Ross Ulbricht was already in prison. A few years earlier, his actions introduced me to the world of Bitcoin.
There I was, realizing the immense potential of Bitcoin, but also becoming painfully aware of the dangers posed by those who seek to suppress free thinkers in order to protect what Bitcoin threatens. Ross was made an example to silence all of us.
That he is free today, and that the community is stronger than ever, fills me with pride and optimism.
The entrenched power structures can put obstacles in Bitcoin’s way, but they cannot stop it. Wishing Ross all the best as he embraces his freedom. Onwards. 🫡
Bitcoin sure is Hope.
🙏👏👏
Checked his mango plant
Unconditional love
How did you get the picture if you’re not in X? 🤨🤨 Is your wife still there? Live accordingly.
X isn't the only method of sharing photos.
Amazing news. I can’t believe how well he looks. Also hope he’s a tech man after the forced Hodl
WHAT SHE HAS DONE FOR HER SON IS INCREDIBLE.
SO HAPPY SHE GETS TO ENJOY HER SON’S FREEDOM
