At last the drug war has been won!

No similar site will ever be created and all the resources formerly spent fighting drugs will be returned to improving the lives of citizens.

This is as great a sign of success as when we victoriously proclaimed "Mission Accomplished" in Iraq, and as assuredly as we have had peace since then in Iraq, we can look forward to as peaceful and drug-free an existence as when we enjoyed the peaceful, law-abiding, alcohol-free times of Prohibition.

Resources well-spent. We can finally sleep well tonight under the FBI's benevolent watch.



> At last the drug war has been won!

They don't want to win, they want to continuously fight with it.


woosh


If anything, the woosh would be for you. I'm sure conductor understood the irony of the statement.


You mean sarcasm , not irony, right?

Irony would be that there is a news tomorrow to the effect " Half a dozen new web sites sprung up after Silk road bust and FBI is struggling this time to catch the perpetrators. They wised up from Silk Road's mistakes described in detail by FBI"


Nope, I meant irony. The word has multiple definitions. In its most popular - "the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect" - sarcasm is given as a synonym.


> You mean sarcasm , not irony, right?

Not this shit again.
