What Deep Web’s Director Learned Investigating Silk Road

Silk Road Was Just Another Tech Company

Outside of the tech press, Winter notes, a lot of the media coverage on the Silk Road has been “drugs and guns and hitmen—just wildly off-base.” Off-base, he says, because when he started interviewing the people who knew Silk Road he didn’t see an outfit that was all that different from those littering Silicon Valley. “I started to meet all these core architects within the Silk Road: vendors, engineers, sellers, administrators, people who were helping with scaling,” he says. “It’s obvious in retrospect but it was just like any large tech company. But it was just not represented that way in the media, so even I was caught off-guard.”

FK – It’s all about keeping the skeer on while pretending to do something about a phenomena they really can’t and maybe don’t want to control…

SAF CONSIDERS NEXT MOVE AFTER JUDGE DISMISSES I-594 LAWSUIT

The Second Amendment Foundation is disappointed that federal Judge Benjamin H. Settle today dismissed without prejudice our lawsuit challenging provisions of Initiative 594, the 18-page gun control measure passed in Washington State last November.

However, SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb noted that in reaching his decision, Judge Settle acknowledged that “The Court is sympathetic to Plaintiffs in that one must actually be prosecuted or under actual or immediate threat of prosecution before the Court may address the constitutionality of a statute.” The judge further observed that “the fairness of this rule may definitely be questioned…”

“It is mind boggling that a law-abiding citizen evidently must put their civil rights, not to mention their clean criminal record, at risk before a court can rule whether a law is constitutional,” Gottlieb observed. “It is definitely unfair, and we believe every American will think it unfair that someone has to be chained and incarcerated before they are allowed to challenge an attack on their constitutional rights.

FK – There’s nothing ‘mind boggling’ about it. We’re at war. Our domestic blood enemies want us disarmed so we can’t hunt and eradicate them after enough finally see the necessity of doing so. That’s all it’s ever been about. The crime issue is a red herring, an excuse to persuade the ignorant.

FK – Why would someone that smart bother with shyster school, all that debt with no guarantee of a job?

Chuckie Schemer is the real danger. It should’ve been tried for treason and executed years ago. But ‘conservatives’ and ‘libertarians’ lack the brains to work together and the backbone necessary to form the militia force that would be necessary to do what will be required.

Vote for an honest Kentucky politician

FK – Why I take deep umbrage at this. We don’t have any jerks like this in Ol’ Kaintuck, just mccommie, and heiny, and the guv, and the attny. gen. and most of the House… Sigh.

Sourced here.

The politicians have to reflect the willful ignorance of the voters to get their votes.

What they say during a campaign means nothing. Their records and affiliations, past and present, are all that matter. Questions for your candidate

CUE HYSTERIA: First ever feticide conviction in US

FK – The “Liberal”(commie) trash, the real ‘red’ team(their propagandists switched the colors) want to have sex with everything and anything and the ‘christian conservatives’ feel some deep set need to produce more babies for their sadistic asshole of a god to hold by their heels over hell-fire so it can tell them “Be my mindless slaves or I’ll torture you and/or kill you!” just like the ancient tyrannical kings it was patterned after.

The human race is insane and we still exist in a very dark age. Supposedly they’re working on a fool-proof birth control for men now. If it’s proven to work every 14 year-old should get it, but we know that won’t happen. As a society we’d rather hand out condoms and bibles to 8-year-olds.

Both sides in this absurd ‘culture war’ are getting it wrong:

FK – So all the great men/women of the past who gave us science, Liberty, matches, bananas, snow sleds, cars, milk shakes, their lives were meaningless?

Most are truly incapable of seeing beyond their own piddling existences. That’s why old grave yards are forgotten and children are told to ‘go get a job’ and billions are waiting to get beamed up before things get too bad and billions more waste all their time in the pursuit of money, things, false security, all while knowing they too will die.

GOA Alert: Battle over Loretta Lynch Nomination Gets ‘Curiouser and Curiouser’

— Call, email and show up at Town Hall meetings of your Senators

Three months ago, the lapdog media was convinced that the confirmation of Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch was a “slam dunk.”  Now, not so much.

Lynch, as you may remember, has been characterized as “Eric Holder in a skirt.”  She committed, under oath, to continue to push Holder’s unconstitutional anti-gun executive amnesty.  She is in favor of a semi-auto ban, which should be of interest at a time when the Justice Department is using every means possible to ban semi-autos by executive fiat.

In addition, when asked about the central pillar of Barack Obama’s anti-gun push — the universal background check/gun registry — she claimed not to really know anything about it.  Which leads to one of two conclusions:  Either Lynch is a liar and a perjurer or she is far too ignorant to be Attorney General.

Lynch’s nomination is particularly pivotal because she is viewed as being groomed to be the fifth anti-gun vote on the U.S. Supreme Court, replacing either Anthony Kennedy or Antonin Scalia. Of course, if Lynch were to be confirmed to the court — riding on the wings of her AG confirmation — both Heller and McDonald would be overturned.  The Second Amendment, as far as the courts are concerned, would be a nullity.

FK – The SCOTUS is NOT the final arbiter of our rights. We are. Time to prep for what will be required.

Kansas becomes the 6th constitutional carry state

Republican Gov. Sam Brownback gave his signature to a popular bill Thursday to allow lawful concealed carry of handguns in Kansas without a permit starting this summer.

Introduced to the state Senate in January with an impressive 26 co-sponsors, the bill passed that body with ease by a sweeping 31-7 vote before heading to the House in March where it was approved by a healthy 85-39 bipartisan margin.

“Responsible gun ownership, for protection and sport, is a right inherent in our Constitution,” Brownback said at Thursday’s signing ceremony. “It is a right that Kansans hold dear and have repeatedly and overwhelmingly reaffirmed a commitment to protecting.”

FK – One wonders how a politician with a clue actually got elected…

There are Kentuckians who are working on catching up.

Here’s a guv that’s obviously firing for effect:

With Sarah Brady’s passing, a little candor from the press

FK – It should have been kicked out of the country 20 years ago at best, if not arrested, tried for treason and executed. We tried to build a militia force then for what will ultimately be required.

The SCOTUS is NOT the final arbiter of our rights. We are!

It’s time to stop apologizing to our blood domestic enemies for every time one of the creatures votes it votes to kill us. Why do so many have such a hard time understanding this? We are at war.

D.C. gives up total carry ban to focus on ways to deny permit applications

FK – Maybe no one but bureaucrats and Marxist NGO employees should be ‘allowed’ to actually ‘live'(loosely defined) in the District of Commie Criminals so we know exactly where they are at all times. We could erect a 14’ high fence around it and help out the environment by stocking the enclosure with bear, cougar, wolves. coyotes and rattlesnakes. Too bad the Potomac is too cold for alligators. Of course they’d be forbidden from defending themselves since the critters would only be acting on their nature and not to blame for the hoped-for carnage.

Anti-gov’t activist arrested after buying machine gun from undercover agent

Defense fund grows for NJ man busted by cops over antique pistol

CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb issued a bristling press release late yesterday, stating that the case is “appalling.” If convicted, Van Gilder faces up to ten years in prison, amounting to a life sentence for the septuagenarian.

“New Jersey was the first state to ratify the Bill of Rights,” Gottlieb observed, “and apparently the last state to recognize it. New Jersey officials need to be reminded that their state is still part of the United States, not a police state.”

But the nationally-known Second Amendment advocate went farther, noting, “This case underscores the vicious nature of gun law enforcement in New Jersey.” He pointed to the case of Shaneen Allen, the single mom from Philadelphia who was arrested last year for having her legally-owned and legally-licensed handgun after crossing into New Jersey on a social visit. Nappen also represented Allen, an African-American woman with a clean record, in a case that attracted national attention.

Van Gilder’s case is “sitting with the prosecutor,” Nappen said. “This case speaks volumes about the absurdity of gun laws in New Jersey.”

This morning, Van Gilder’s defense fund had grown to more than $14,000 of a $25,000 goal. The National Rifle Association’s NRA News has done a story on Van Gilder’s dilemma that is streaking across YouTube.

FK – “Streaking across YouTube.” Considering some of the stuff that’s on there I’m getting a not too pleasant visual…

House panel fast-tracking bill to eliminate death penalty

FK – This is your answer: Search Kirk Bloodsworth. Read his Wikipedia page.

He spoke at a TBK meeting a few months back. I asked him if he was in favor of the death penalty for any reason. His answer is that once you kill an innocent man you can’t get him back. You can release an innocent man from prison, but not from the grave.

Our ‘just-us’ system is completely untrustworthy. It railroads people into prison on a regular basis. It’s set up that way. Prosecutors and cops are more interested in their records or quotas than in justice. Most convictions are on ‘circumstantial evidence.’ Even eye witnesses can’t always be trusted, simple fact.

We need a granite gallows in front of every govt. building in this country and the death penalty for elected, hired or appointed public servants who break their oaths to uphold the Bill of Rights and a militia force in every county to enforce it and make sure the granite gallows don’t fall into disuse.

‘Conservatives’ need to learn that the govt. can’t be trusted no matter which party is in control.

Journalist Who Covered Stratfor Hack Sentenced to 63 Months in Prison

Brown said the “novel, and sometimes even radical” claims the government made during his sentencing threatens “every journalist in the United States.”

“The government asserts that I am not a journalist and thus unable to claim the First Amendment protections guaranteed to those engaged in information-gathering activities,” he said in a statement to the court. “Your Honor, I’ve been employed as a journalist for much of my adult life, I’ve written for dozens of magazines and newspapers, and I’m the author of two published and critically-acclaimed books of expository non-fiction.”

“If I am not a journalist, then there are many, many people out there who are also not journalists, without being aware of it, and who are thus as much at risk as I am.”
