I mean Silk Road was undeniably used primarily for drug sales and other illegal content. But in the end, it's a bit like arresting the owner of the back alley where a junkie buys heroin.
I don't know, the War on Drugs is an obvious failure. Getting rid of Silk Road does nothing for the actual victims of this stuff. We need to continue to go hard against the Mexican cartels and other producers like (sigh) Afghanistan. And the prescription opioid crisis is massive and practically nothing is being done about it in this country.
Also Trump should have decriminalized marijuana on day one of his presidency.
All of it is depressing to think about, since no one wants to go easy on drug users. It's not a popular position for politicians.

Legalized, absolutely.
