Default Re: Liberty Dollar office raided

We don't really know why the FBI raided the office; it may not be because the FBI is asserting that alternate currencies are illegal. Second, the raid is obviously going to be challenged, so the FBI is going to have to defend itself and it's decision to raid.

In other words, I'm not sure why we're automatically concluding that alternative currencies are illegal merely because the FBI raided this office. It's just as possible these guys were defrauding their customers or failing to pay their taxes, or were suspected of violating some other law. Or maybe the feds got over aggressive.
