Despite the fact that Ulbricht has immense support among the public and respected organizations, the Supreme Court recently denied his petition for a review in his case. Darryl Perry, chair of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire, presented the pardon resolution at the party’s recent convention in New Orleans last weekend. “If for some reason President Trump does not choose to accede to our resolution that we passed today, then I think that we just need to elect a libertarian president in 2020 to get this shit done,” Perry said. The Free Thought Project spoke with former Libertarian Party Vice-Chair Arvin Vohra, who is planning a run for president in 2020. Vohra hops that Trump will grant this pardon, but if not, he said it will become one of his top campaign promises. “Ross Ulbricht is a great American tech innovator, who should be out creating more innovations, jobs, and opportunities. I have pledged to pardon him, along with Edward Snowden and all nonviolent prisoners who have neither harmed anyone nor stolen anything. I join the LP in asking my 2020 opponent, current president Trump, to do the right thing for the American economy and the American conscience, and pardon Ross Ulbricht,” Vohra said. Considering the fact that last week the Hammond Ranchers were pardoned by Trump, and the fact that Kim Kardashian was able to convince him to pardon a woman serving a life sentence for drug charges, it is not so far-fetched to ask for a pardon in this case as well. In the video below, Lyn, Ross’s mother, speaks about his condition in prison:.... Poster Comment: I don't know if I like Ulbricht and I hate some of the things TOR* is used for, but tell you what -- let's free him till the the Beltway drug gangsters (our illustrious pubic servants) have been apprehended, at least. And I don't think it's too much to add another condition -- that the FBI et al get serious about stopping the real cybercrime waves that seriously harm and endanger the public day to day. * or the Silk Road -- whatever Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 1.

And childish suggestions like this are the prime reason the Libertarians will never win anything but the admiration of their mothers.
