Opioids don't just jump into your mouth/nose/lungs/veins. Someone has to put them there. If you do that incorrectly, there is a risk of death. You sound like one of those cops that "overdosed" on fentanyl just by looking at it. Anyways, I checked out the "weapons sales" allegations and couldn't find anything to substantiate that claim. Also, Wikipedia appears to indicate it was explicitly disallowed in the rules you claim did not exist.
"The site's terms of service prohibited the sale of certain items. When the Silk Road marketplace first began, the creator and administrators instituted terms of service that prohibited the sale of anything whose purpose was to "harm or defraud."[ This included child pornography, stolen credit cards, assassinations, and weapons of any type; other darknet markets such as [Black Market Reloaded] ( "Black Market Reloaded") gained user notoriety because they were not as restrictive on these items as the Silk Road incarnations were."
Drugs are not dangerous. Misusing drugs is dangerous. If you're using clean, tested drugs at a dose that's documented thoroughly to be safe, where exactly is the danger?
It definitely had rules. Purdue pushed drugs on people while misinforming them and doctors, and did kickbacks and all other sorts of corruption. Weapon sales I'm kinda mixed on, probably not the best idea. But absolutely fuck off with that drug war bullshit. If people want to buy drugs and overdose on them they should be free to do so. Drugs aren't dangerous, lack of information is.
Did he do something morally wrong? I'm confused by your statement if you're only referring to creation/management of silk road. Heard some accusations about him being involved in murder-for-hire but I didn't think that was ever substantiated
Yeah I'm really just wondering if that actually happened though. I don't see any charges related to that.
