Too funny - The Libertarian Police Department investigates the theft of $470M in bitcoins

This one is dedicated to COG and all the other die-hard Ayn Rand believers:

Some wonderful key quotes:

----------------------------------------------------------------
"I was shooting heroin and reading “The Fountainhead” in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief."
------
“Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars’ worth of bitcoins.”

The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. “What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?”
---------
"I put a quarter in the siren. Ten minutes later, I was on the scene. It was a normal office building, strangled on all sides by public sidewalks. I hopped over them and went inside."
-------
"Nothing. These people were stonewalling me. It almost seemed like they didn’t care that a fortune in computer money invented to buy drugs was missing."

---------------------------------------------------------

Yeah, there are some serious limitations to pure libertarianism.

You are right!... I will never understand the statist, liberal, RINO mind.

OH, and those are commas in between the words... LOL

But, I do understand my friend E.T. Williams.

Oh, and just putting commas in between the worlds does not make it what I think you think it means.

Stupid. And not Libertarian. Just an ignorant eastern liberal trying to make other ignorant eastern liberals laugh. It's like so many here. Make stuff up, criticize it, and then feel self satisfied in your superiority. But it's not based in truth, like that would matter.

That's the part we agreed on.

Whether or not "liberals" find it funny, as you allege, is a different issue.
