Subject: FW: Shadowcrew Grand Jury Indictment

Well, it is given that posting to FD does give a site exposure (good and
bad). But I wouldn't say that FD was the cause of it..it was the illegal
activity that was the cause of it. We all know SCC does some underground
stuff and they post here each time they move. So...I wouldn't blame the
FD list for anything.
