Question Wtf

Ok as a few of you all know i have moved back to VA. started chatting people on www.dragva.com Tho Im finding it pretty intresting that the cops up here busted a illegal spot issued 80+ tickets and not even 2 weeks later the site is shut down by the goverment of all people? Yeah thats right teh Goverment shut thier site down and fined the owner... How in hell has TR avoided this, or is there even a chance of his happening to forums across teh states???

DRAGVA.COM is now the property of the United States Government.
The domain and web site were surrendered to U.S. law enforcement pursuant to a federal prosecution and felony plea agreement for conspiracy to violate criminal enterprise laws.


The owner of DRAGVA.COM pled guilty in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on March 23, 2006, to conspiring with others to violate federal criminal enterprise laws. As a result, the DRAGVA.COM website is now the property of the United States Government. Individuals involved in this conduct face up to five years in federal prison and a fine of $250,000 for each count charged.

Newport News Police Department reports: "Working in cooperation with federal officials we were able to put a stop to the criminal activity that took place on DRAGVA.COM. Along with the owner several of the administrators have been brought in for questioning. The databases surrendered will provide us with many leads to investigate relating to illegal activity. Newport News Police Department does not condone the actions of administrators or users of DRAGVA.COM and will punish those involved to the fullest extent of the law."

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and local law enforcement will continue to investigate and prosecute individuals and groups that violate the federal criminal enterprise laws. For more information on these and other federal investigations, visit www.cybercrime.gov.

federal criminal enterprise laws, that not street racing sound more like money laundering or something like that.

I just love how the law justifies stealing people's property. I don't care what was going on on that website, it's a fucking website! I don't care if they were promoting suicide, pedophilia, drugs or Islam, nobody is forcing anybody to go to those sites. I have no problem with the government analyzing the data, but the owner of the site has every right to keep it.

This country gets closer to Nazi every time a law is passed.
