You guys worry about legality?

**jasc** · 08-22-2011, 11:07 AM

You guys ever worry about legality issues on here? namely discussing AAS use..
I for one have discussed use and asked for help on the AAS forum on here numerous times and was wondering if there was any risk of doing so. I've thought about putting a disclaimer in my posts like some others have but doubt it would do anything if there was ever an issue.
If the gov't decided to seize this site for any reason, could we get in trouble? I realize we can take steps to protect our identity, no face pics/name/personal info.. but couldn't they just grab our IP addresses and track them?

I mean stating you are using or currently on cycle IS admitting to illegal substance use, atleast here in the US.. but could authorities do anything without physical proof of use?

This is not meant to scare anyone or create any type of issue, I'm just curious.. I am sure there are some laws or loopholes to protect us and actually proving who a user is would be very difficult. The reason I ask is, my gf asked me about this yesterday and I didn't have a
good answer, I really hadn't put much thought in to it before...

they would never come after members. They didnt do it when boards that talked about open sources and buying from this or that source. We discuss use.
And i make everything up to sound cool it all a lie. They would need evidence of something an a disclaimer is bs.

If you have done something really bad and they want to get shiit on you, they might search for it. Other than that, they have much more things to worry about than finding some guy that used steroids .

**redz** · 08-22-2011, 11:58 AM

Here in Canada I don`t think they really give a damn about steroids . Over all I think there are bigger fish to fry.

I agree.. it would be a complete waste to come after a casual end user.. but rather target the largest AR board in the world and get thousands n thousands of users...

**jasc** · 08-22-2011, 12:00 PM

steroid use is legal in canada right?

**Windex** · 08-22-2011, 12:04 PM

Unless your Jimmy Struthers from down the street with enough juice to be a source they more or likely won't hunt you down.

and in some countries steroids are legal. This is the reason why we dotn discuss sources, ugls, or anything like that.

We have the right of free speech. There are boards on other topics that discuss things that are illegal too. They arent coming after message boards for arrest.

Actually this is incorrect, steroids are only illegal to buy and sell. Posession and use is not illegal. (In Canada)

**im83931** · 08-22-2011, 12:48 PM

I don't worry about it.

The legal status of anabolic steroids varies from country to country: some have stricter controls on their use or prescription than others though in many countries they are not illegal. In the U.S., anabolic steroids are currently listed as Schedule III controlled substances under the Controlled Substances Act, which makes the first offense simple possession of such substances without a prescription a federal crime punishable by up to one year in prison, and the unlawful distribution or possession with intent to distribute anabolic steroids punishable as a first offense by up to five years in prison (to be increased to ten years, effective on or about April 13, 2009).[100] In Canada, anabolic steroids and their derivatives are part of the Controlled drugs and substances act and are Schedule IV substances, meaning that it is illegal to obtain or sell them without a prescription; however, possession is not punishable, a consequence reserved for schedule I, II or III substances. Those guilty of buying or selling anabolic steroids in Canada can be imprisoned for up to 18 months. Import and export also carry similar penalties.[101] Anabolic steroids are also illegal without prescription in Australia,[102] Argentina, Brazil and Portugal,[103] and are listed as Class C Controlled Drugs in the United Kingdom. On the other hand, anabolic steroids are readily available without a prescription in some countries such as Mexico and Thailand.

I posted this like 2 years ago had to find the post again.

What province are you from ? In Ontario, specifically Guelph, I know a few guys who got busted with EQ and Winny they got from vets. Kids were speechless when cops questioned why they had those drugs without any race horses.

**awms** · 08-22-2011, 06:26 PM

I never worry about it.

**Gi812Many** · 08-26-2011, 08:16 AM

There is no way in hell they would waste resources and money to track each individual member down over steroid use ......Go to an addiction forum, plenty of people admitting abusing pharms etc.

I`m from Ontario and I know for fact posession is not illegal. That exerpt I posted is the law. Unless your buddies were caught selling or with enough on them that it appeared they were distributing something doesn`t add up.

Possibly. I am unaware of all the details. But for the record they are definitely not my buddies ! I just heard the story from a Vet I work with.
