Law enforcement are just doing their job... when people choose that as a career, I'm sure the opinions they have don't count in regards to the law of that country they are just going by the book. Can't blame em. Lets face it, sometimes people that take drugs are fuckheads and I want LE to stop those crazed mother fuckers.

Stockholm syndrome, or capture-bonding, is a psychological phenomenon in which hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors, sometimes to the point of defending them. These feelings are generally considered irrational in light of the danger or risk endured by the victims, who essentially mistake a lack of abuse from their captors for an act of kindness.

I do happen to know some LE.  Their job doesn't define them. Just like mine doesn't define me.   I go to work everyday and I may have to do things I don't agree with 100%

This defines you completely

Many children with Down syndrome graduate from high school and are able to do paid work

Stockholm Syndrome is extremely prevalent in the USA. Anyone who thinks that they should defend criminals who viciously attack them is clearly suffering from some psychological issue.

Then I want the court systems to give out the justice. But that never happens.

Didn't you get the memo? Just doing your job is not an excuse for crimes. It is the job of a burglar to steal from houses. Should he not be punished? What about his family? He puts food on their table. It is the job of an extortionist to extort money, should he also not be held accountable? Your logic is entirely baseless. How about we give people the job of killing DEA agents, should they then not be held accountable in your views, because it is their job? Your claims are so easily contradicted , the lack of logic in your arguments becomes apparent as soon as your own flawed logic is turned against you. You either must admit that burglars, DEA agents, DEA agent killers and extortionists should all equally not be held accountable for their actions, or you must admit that having a job does not excuse the behaviors you engage in. If you accept that having a job does not excuse the behaviors you engage in, it brings up the question of why do you want to excuse the crimes of the DEA? The answer is very likely that your mind if infected with statism and you think that by acting as an agent of the state a person is excused of their crimes. If this is the case it seems likely that you do not think that the Nazi war criminals should have been brought to justice for their crimes. Your arguments lack any sound logical basis and it clearly shows to anyone of significant enough intelligence to realize.

First of all I don't make generalized stereotypical judgment of others especially when their life is at stake,  You claim that is morally inconsistent, I say it is this way of thinking allows me to be moral.

2nd I agree there is no excuse for, "fucking other peoples rights and lives over. Putting innocents in prison is bad".  So why do you claim ", that when the revolution comes your back will be up against the wall and your bullet riddled corpses will be fed to wild animals?"

I'm afraid you fall on the wrong side of this argument.  You're saying that anyone who wears a badge should be put to death.  With that attitude you would have made a great administrator of a concentration camp for the Nazis. or maybe a militia leader for the Impuzamugambi and Interahamwe in Rowanda massacring the Tutsi  . Your reasoning aligns perfectly theirs.   Which was, if you are a part of a certain group that we deem to be evil then you will be systematically  put to death.  No trial no chance for a fair judgement.  Men Women and children all put to death.

The big difference is that people are born Tutsi or Jewish but they make a choice to become a drug enforcement agent. You put a single person in prison for a drug crime? Welcome to death row.

Thank you for your reply and insight. I thought that may be the case.  I do happen to know some LE.  Their job doesn't define them. Just like mine doesn't define me.   I go to work everyday and I may have to do things I don't agree with 100%, but food doesn't get on the table by itself.  between making a compromise and me not being able to provide for me an my family.  Without a doubt the fam comes first. 

I didn't mean to imply that only LE should reply.  Only that, if someone isn't going to make a constructive post or add ideas that add value then they should just keep it to themselves.

Typing stupid shit like "KILL, KILL, KILL" tells me 1 of 2 things.

1. The poster is young.  They don't have any real or substantial life experience, They may have had some experience, they haven't matured to the point where they  would learn from them.  And they are just trying to impress other by talking out their ass.

or

2 . They are a psychopath.  Narcissistic, incapable of empathy and lack a solid grasp on reality.

Dude there is no excuse for fucking other peoples rights and lives over. Putting innocents in prison is bad. Putting food on the table for your family is no excuse. if I had my way they would be fucking killed, how are they going to provide for their family when their brains are sprayed out on the floor where they belong? Fucking police apologists. How about we give people the job of killing cops? How do you twist your logic to think that this is bad, after all they will be killing cops just to provide food to their families ! You are morally inconsistent and seem to have a tendency to attach your mouth to the dicks of police.

In the USA it doesn't matter if you have lost your passphrase or not, probably. You can just plead the fifth. There have been a few CP cases thrown out by the judge because all the prosecution had was an IP address. The accused refuse to decrypt their drive, the government experts have to admit that an IP address is not solid proof, the judge throws the case out.

The encryption used by SR only offers any benefit at all if the server is not running when it is seized. This is unlikely, so using GPG is pretty much a must.

if the staff here would just add a captcha for registration and to post for everyone who has less than 400 posts the spam would stop almost immediately.
