Your agreement could be used for the crime of mass shootings. It's a societal problem, what's the use in locking up one person?

I think if it's true, he should be locked up AND the Sacklers right next to him.

This is a criminal justice system where penalties scale with skin colour and inversely with wealth. They got pissy with Ulbricht due to the sheer scale of the manhunt required to get one person, a vast sum was spent that could have been spent on healthcare and harm reduction. They don't actually care about the damage that drugs do or rehabilitation, this is about punishment. Everyone needs to take responsibility for their actions, except wealthy white people.
