i mean, many consumable products are not safe. the questions are how safe are they, how safe can they be, and how often they are used? there are many legal consumables that are not safe, and i think that's okay. there are also many illegal consumables that are not safe, and legalizing them can only make them safer.
Potentially, yes. I do understand where you are coming from but I personally do not see the merit in many of these drugs "safe" or otherwise being easily accessible.
the more illegal they are, the more "black market" they become, and thus, there is less telling what's inside them. i sold/traded a little bit of blow and weed in high school like a lot of kids did, and i can say for a fact blow was often cut with all KINDS of different shit. i can only imagine what's in things now.
Maybe so. I have not done an exorbitant amount of research on the topic, so a lot of this is just personal experience and feelings for me.
Ah ok he was skimming off the top no matter the transaction, he got life without parole I think right?
I didn't have pardoning online purveyors of drugs and weapons on my bingo card, fuck knows what libertarians have to do with it..
President Donald Trump pardons Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht
Fulfilling a campaign promise to libertarians and the bitcoin community, the Silk Road founder's life sentence without parole is now over.reason.com
President Donald Trump, fulfilling a promise made at the Libertarian Party's National Convention in May, pardoned Ross Ulbricht today. Ulbricht had been serving a life sentence for his role in founding and operating the dark web marketplace Silk Road.
As Trump put it in a Truth Social post: "in honor of [his mother Lyn Ulbricht], and the Libertarian Movement, which supported me so strongly, it was my pleasure to have just signed a full and unconditional pardon of her son, Ross." He said "the scum that worked to convict him were some of the same lunatics who were involved in the modern-day weaponization of government against me."
Pretty wild. I didn't think this guy would ever get out. I recommend American Kingpin for a read or listen to the case file podcast episodes on this story if you guys aren't familiar with the case.
That's the beauty of a pre-emptive pardon that is backdated to certain timelines for some strange reason. It stops potential investigations into wrongdoing, since it's a pointless endeavor because they all have immunity. You should be asking if they did nothing wrong, why the pardons? Is the thought process here, is that Trump is just gonna make some shit up to charge them with? He can do that with or without the pardons, if he were to be so bold. Just plant some drugs in Fauci's house. Done. He ain't pardoned for that.
No, dumb, as in reference to your below 70 IQ, would be someone who thinks this guy was convicted of drug trafficking. Or even charged with drug trafficking.
It's doublespeak. It is clearly meant to be deceptive.
The stench of hypocrisy over these last minute pardons by Biden is maddening.
Silk Road drugs were tested for potency and purity generally. And lack of street level sales did make it the safest way to partake.
Dude is brain dead lol. He's been partaking in too much silk road product
take a walk along hastings street in vancouver while stepping over all the dead bodies and come back to me if you think safe supply is going to work
I think you just live to bitch honestly
