looks like Mr Pirate tried to claim BTC was not real currency and thus he is exempt from he law ha ha .

also for a laugh see this story :

http://rt.com/business/man-outsmarts-banks-wins-court-221/

"A Russian man who decided to write his own small print in a credit card contract has had his changes upheld in court. He's now suing the country's leading online bank for more than 24 million rubles ($727,000) in compensation."
