All you really need is castor beans and to look up some instructions, apparently.

I’m just shocked that you can find instructions for that online without having your front door busted in.

You can find instructions online for anything, that's the beauty of the internet.

Yeah, we're still able to travel this site for now even though over 90% of DC bureaucrats hate us more than ricin.

And the downfall. Not all instructions are correct or well intended.

The internet is a double edged sword. It's great for learning, information, communication, entertainment etc. But there are fucked up people in this world that use it to do fucked up shit.

That's why they should all test it on themselves first to make sure they got a good batch.

There is nothing illegal about knowledge. When you apply that knowledge and cook the ricin or obtain it from a lab with the intent to poison someone is when it becomes illegal.

I know how to construct a nuke and would love to share it with everyone. Good luck with enriching uranium.

I had a bunch of enriched uranium in my garage but used it to build a time machine, the Iranians I got it from were pissed.

"Ignorance is strength"

"Dont learn how weapons work. Remain defenseless."

The OP saying that is beyond retarded.

What do you tell a country with 2 nuked cities?

Nothing, you already told them twice.

Ricin is this generations home made pipe/pressure cooker bomb. You can try and ban all manuals of "The Anarchists Cookbook", but you're not gonna get them all and it just would make it more popular.

The Anarchist Cookbook was converted to ASCII text file in the 1980s and has been floating around the internet since it was Arpanet and BBS's.

There is no getting the genie back in the bottle. Anybody who says they can get the genie back in the bottle just wants to enact massive censorship on the scale of China's Great Firewall and they are using this out of date radical textbook as an excuse.

Nearly 20 years ago there was a PDF on a flash drive being passed around the high-school. The more something is targeted the more untraceable and ubiquitous it becomes.

40 years ago me and my buddies bought all of these manuals we could from Delta Press. There was even one that told you how to make ANFL and blow up a big bridge with it. We were in the 8th grade at the time. The 70's were an time awesome to be a kid.

I blame breaking bad for putting it into the mainstream.

Ricin poisoning was a thing long before breaking bad was even an idea.

ACB isn't banned. You can download it free right now. You can go to the website and look up whatever you want. If you're gullible you can buy a hard copy ok amazon.

I mean, they did catch her. But maybe she was smart enough to hide her activity online

I’m sure she didn’t do any thing serious to cover her tracks, the FBI just didn’t bother before because she plays for their team.

Welcome to the internet.

You can find anything on the internet. It's literally nearly the entire collective of knowledge of the human race.

Yet we use it to look at funny pictures mostly.
