Ross Ulbricht is Innocent. All he did was program computers. By submitting this text post, I have programmed a computer.

True, and your programming of a computer was not intended to facilitate illegal acts.

Ross Ulbricht was convicted for being a political dissident in the drug war

Nope. You're allowed to oppose the war on drugs, and millions of Americans do.

Ross Ulbricht is not the Dread Pirate Roberts.

According to his own diary, he was in fact the Dread Pirate Roberts. It turns out one should not diary one's illegaal acts.

Saying he ran a drug business is like saying I work for Uber or Lyft. Uber and Lyft are phone apps, not companies (I know there are also companies by those name)

So you can work for those companies, and many people do. Good to know.

If I oppose the drug war the way poor Ross did I'm going to be seperated from those millions of Americans by a federal fortress.

According to my diary I'm Darth Vader. Is that illegal?

Wrong. There aren't that many people in the federal prisons.

According to my diary I'm Darth Vader.

If by "Darth Vader" you mean "the crime lord calling himself Darth Vader who hired hitmen to kill six people" you'd be screwed.

Darth Vader only hired hitmen for one person, and Vader wanted him alive. Ulbricht is worse than Vader.

who do you think would win in a fight, Homer Simpson or Family Guy

Family Guy, he's not as nice a person as Homar

Crime lord? For programming a computer? Did the program kill somebody, make their car run off the road? He was convicted of running a drug empire consisting of people and drugs he never met and couldn't identify. And wrote in a diary.

Running a market for illegal goods.

Did the program kill somebody,

He tried to have six people killed.

He was convicted of running a drug empire consisting of people and drugs he never met and couldn't identify.

Most drug lords don't know the dudes at the bottom of the organization. That does not excuse them.

And wrote in a diary.

He wrote about committing crimes in a diary.

Ah there you're mistaken because he didn't run anything. He programed a computer that let people communicate somehow. That's not exactly Scarface. I'm not sure the drafters of the RICO act quite had him in mind.

Drugs are not illegal per se. Certain drug activities are illegal.

Ah there you're mistaken because he didn't run anything.

His diary says otherwise.

He programed a computer that let people communicate somehow.

That "somehow" being "to do illegal stuff."

I'm not sure the drafters of the RICO act quite had him in mind.

He's a drug lord.

My diary says im very important . Sometimes I leave a pen and paper out where just anybody can leave messages even drug dealers. It's on a community bulletin board and you need a secret decoder ring only available in Kellogs brand cereal to read it. Btw I'm in Tahiti running around naked most of the time but when the paper gets worn out I put a new shhet up. Can you guess my occupation?

Im a drug lord, when I'm not too busy being a REAL PIRATE, just like in the movies!

Ulbricht didn't do this. If he did, he would have been able to raise that as a defense.

No defense for the Dread Terrorist Ross Ulbricht, he had a lawyer!

I'm guessing you don't know what that is.

inducing someone to commit a crime they wouldn't have otherwise committed. It's not being coerced by violence, as you suggested.

They didn't do that.

And that's a white collar drug ring. He deserves to rot in prison as much as the people he emulated.
