Why there are so many threads about Mark K. when Charlie S. is worst than Mark?

I understand that people can't withdraw their money (this is sad) but Charlie made really bad media Karma for bitcoin. Even my grandmother called me to say about that Charlie was arrested.


if there are people who did not read about it yet, here some articles:
http://www.businessinsider.com/report-ceo-of-major-bitcoin-exchange-arrested-2014-1
http://money.cnn.com/2014/01/27/technology/security/bitcoin-arrest/


So which one of them you choose as a worst for bitcoin?
Mark vs Charlie

Here's what each actually did:

Mark K -- stole $500 million from a bunch of bitcoiners.
Charlie S -- showed his middle finger to the government.

Is it really so hard for you to tell the hero from the low-life-scum here?

It sounds like a trick question on the US citizenship test.

Who is bad:
A) Mark K -- stole $500 million from bitcoiners.
B) Charlie S -- ignored arbitrary regulations

If you answer "A" you get a big "REJECTED" stamp on your application.
