	My impression is that Jim is coming at this from the POV of a sysop 
who would like not to *his* system confiscated because of the actions of
someone sitting at a remote [and safe] location. 

	He could return the favour, one supposes, by helping the fellow 
in question fight the War on [Some] Drugs by mailing them a package 
containing a controlled substance. After all, no price paid for freedom
is too high as long as someone else foots the bill.
