    laws brought in by a democratic government voted in by the people, verses laws brought in by a military junta who forced their way into power? no ****ing contest

    What Jurisdiction Does Ireland have over Egypt as one is fond of Using the word Jurisdiction.

    With the bit-coins then.

    There's a lot of crypto-currencies, it's just that bit-coin was a one off-wonder. But trying to stop them all would, once again, require the devotion of large resources... I simply don't believe Ireland has those resources to dedicate.

    Aspergers isn't autism and why does that mean a person shouldn't goto prison?

    Actually, it is. The most recent version of the DSM has eliminated Aspergers as a separate diagnosis and instead included it as a form of autism.

    Does it matter ? How does that diminish breaking the law.

    What law has he broken? He hasn't been found guilty of anything yet, Do you not believe in innocent until proven guilty?
    Hell the DPP are not even interested in investigating him.
    Mr Davis, counsel submitted, should have been charged in Ireland with corresponding offences but the DPP has not investigated and had no intention of charging Mr Davis in relation to his alleged involvement with the Silk Road website.

    That process can't start until he's extradited & questioned I imagine.

    So he's broken no Irish law then? Glad that's settled.

    Why would we send this guy off to America then - they don't govern Ireland.

    Facilitating crime is legal in Ireland ?

    That's a deliberate misunderstanding of my point.
    If it's a crime here then have the trial here. If not, no extradition

    I see this thread has taken the predictable ugly turn.

    Meh, the tread. What about your spooky next door neighbour buying a machine gun.

    no america are going after him in the hope that this time they will get their wish to over rule irelands jurisdiction

    How much do you know about the case? Did he commit any crime or facilitate a crime that happened to cross into America? I'd bet that he did at some point. It's like the Fifa thing, the US had the levity to go after them because money was being wired through US accounts. If anything touched the US digital or otherwise. They can feel free to seek extradition. It doesn't mean Ireland will grant it but they might.

    What if he facilitated a crime that somebody else or multiple people committed from the US? The crime which he facilitated would have originated from the US. Also, if he's an Administrator, I bet he used a US IP at some stage to get around something

    No they don't that's why they have applied to the courts.

    I would imagine the courts will be deciding the legalities of this.

    They may take our Gary Davis but they will never take our national inferiority complex.

    as he wasn't in the US, any supposed crime he supposibly commited is irrelevant to the US.

    I'm very highly educated. I know words, i have the best words, nobody has better words then me.

    A long time ago laws were put in place for cyber crime. If somebody facilitates a crime and that crosses into the US. They can seek to prosecute. It doesn't mean the Irish Government will allow the extradition but they could if the US can make a case for him breaking the law there.

    You are basically accepting that the U.S. has jurisdiction over the world/Internet in most circumstances.

    But not the reverse. I mean the U.S. is probably in violation of European laws every day.

    What an odd idea, I would see it as punishing people for facilitating crimes in another Jurisdiction. Or is facilitating crime not illegal ?

    What's that got to do with this lad facilitating crime ?

    The US refuses to extradite people accused of murder, why should anyone facilitate their request when they refuse to reciprocate other countries requests? Also you keep claiming he has facilitated crime, care to show where he has been found guilty of this?

    Why would Ireland throw it's toys out of the pram ? He's not been found guilty hence the request for an extradition to try him under law.

    So no proof of crime committed but send him off anyway, meanwhile they refuse to extradite murderers but expect special treatment. Hopefully the judge tells em to **** off out of it.

    I thought open court cases cant be discussed on here, my thread on Grainne Seoige has just been closed because there is a open court case yet this thread is allowed to stay open which is also a open court case:confused:
    Double standards.

    I don't think it effects Extradition, As he will be being tried in another Jurisdiction. This case just has to say yes or no to allowing this.

    Imaginations don't make him guilty of anything.

    He has committed no crime here, that's a fact and there's no justification for sending an Irish citizen accused of deleting forum posts and what not by the self-appointed world police off to be fitted for an orange jumpsuit, on the basis of things like your imagination.

    Hopefully the judge does the right thing.

    I would wager it's to do with Facilitation of crime and not just deleting forum posts. If the person involved was aware of crimes being committed they should have gone to the Garda.

    So why did the DPP refuse to even investigate?

    Not their jurisdiction maybe ? The crimes being committed were not here.
