What kind of drug do we think FPSRussia prefers?[/QUOTE]
according to an arf.com thread where the news broke, an officer involved said it was vape liquid with THC, or cannabis oil.

I read somewhere that it was butane honey oil (which at first I thought was something to make explosives).

fun fact, vaping cannabis oil is called dabbing :v:
[QUOTE=NostalgicBird;52610011]That was the same guy who's producer - I think it was - died from a gunshot. They still haven't found out who killed him.[/QUOTE]
He said some messed up stuff when he lived:
[QUOTE]Ratliff was known as an outspoken gun advocate. In a message posted to Twitter on Aug 11, 2012, he wrote: “I went to the movies with my pistol in my pocket the whole time I was praying that somebody would try to pull a Batman!”[/QUOTE]
[quote]According to jail dockets, Myers was booked on possession of a Schedule I or II controlled substance with [b]intent to distribute[/b] and possession and use of drug related objects. Under Georgia law, the intent charge is a felony punishable by anywhere from one to 30 years in prison.[/quote]
So damn stupid that they automatically assume intent to distribute when buying certain amounts of drugs. This is usually the part that racks up larger sentences, and its how people who buy an ounce of weed can end up in jail for ridiculous amounts of time. Of course, he could have totally been intending to sell whatever he bought, I'm just assuming he isn't because it just seems unlikely.

Wasn't it also him that almost got his cameraman killed by blowing up a car or fridge or something?

The most plausible theory I've heard is that, since he was the main source for a lot of the exotic shit FPSrussia had, and is in general a weird guy, he would have been in contact with some shady people and might have pissed them off.
It's a longshot but for a death like that, it seems the most cogent.
[QUOTE=junker|154;52611812]The guy I'm ordering my drug from buys it straight on the darknet and gets it delivered to his personal address. The thing is that anybody in the world can send you a package with any sort of content. Only if you actually take the package, you are accountable for the content. I might be mistaken though.

That's pretty much true. It's certainly going to get you investigated, but they aren't going to be able to imprison you with it. In addition to what you said though, they also have to prove you had something to do with/knowledge of what was in the box. People don't always remember exactly what they've ordered and when it'll arrive, they just open whatever comes to their frontdoor/PO box if it has their name on it. Especially if it's a public PO box like FPSrussia used to have, which might still be owned by him.
The main advantage I think for people to use a PO box is the separation, if they live with other people. They don't really give you a semblance of anonymity since lying to the post office about who you are is a horrible idea. But it might stop your GF from opening up your mailbox and finding your darkweb dragon dildos or something.

It's not totally unbelievable with him, his main source of income was completely destroyed when his producer died, and him doing podcasts isn't going to pay the bills. Plus with youtube's changes to monetization for videos, it's nearly impossible to monetize any video with profanity or weaponry. Dood had to change his income sources and I guess he thought drug sales was the best way to do it.

His producer had a special firearms distribution license, a very rare and tough to get one, that basically let him buy military grade weaponry and explosives, and also import it. That license also allowed him to resell it; it's basically an arms dealer license. So the big theory around his death is that he was trying to start up his own legal or illegal arms trade and some people got pissed off about that and had him killed.
It's not really a long shot considering the weaponry he easily procured for the show, and his ability to import whatever people would sell him.
[QUOTE=loopoo;52611755]so what does your drug loving friend do when he wants to order online? where does he get it delivered to? I'm pretty sure getting stuff delivered to your PO Box is alright.[/QUOTE]
order straight to your home address, so that it could have been anyone. On the off chance that they discovered it and it's a controlled delivery (will basically never happen for a quantity you would ever order), let it sit in the mailbox for a few days in case they raid you. Then take it out, and quickly bury it somewhere you'll remember away from your property. Go about your business for a few weeks, and tell them that you found drugs in your mail and flushed them because you didn't want to get in trouble if they raid you. If it's been a while and you haven't been raided, you should be safe to start doing the drugs.
[editline]25th August 2017[/editline]
also a helpful note is that usually for personal quantities and such they tend to seize it and send you a letter in the mail that says "hey dickhead, we know you ordered bad shit. stop doing that or we'll have to fuck you up." Of course, the way they do this is by doing a controlled delivery the next time they find something in your mail, which is the only real way to catch/implicate you. so if you get a love letter, it's time to stop or change address
[QUOTE=The Aussie;52610052]Huh, i'm surprised he got caught. Getting drugs in the mail is usually bulletproof. Although i guess the government has more reason to pay attention to a dude who's probably ordering in various weapons all the time.[/QUOTE]
I know a guy that tried to ship 45 pounds of weed, via fed ex, all the way across the country. I think it got 1 province out before the RC's got it. They let it get to him then picked him up when he picked it up.
