“Krister sold raw sodium...”

Raise your hand if you have ever seen sodium?

It’s not salt!

It’s an extremely dangerous metal.

Drop a pea sized piece of sodium in a glass of water and BANG! A very high intensity fire breaks out - in the glass of water.

It’s extremely dangerous stuff!

So what exactly is your point?

It appears you think the man deserves to be in prison because he sold something that is potentially dangerous, even though it's perfectly legal to do so. It’s extremely dangerous stuff!

There are countless dangerous chemicals that have legitimate uses.
How would you ever clean your drains without lye?
Most plastics are safe to have and use, but the materials needed to make them are very dangerous.
Twenty-five or more years ago there was a convicted criminal in a prison cell who wanted to commit suicide, he made an IED from playing cards and successfully offed himself.

I use it to clean engine blocks that fail on dyno and etch the aluminum. I’m sure its not pure sodium and I am no chemist but some type of mixture added to water in a tank that has the word sodium in it.

I add the mixture in very small amounts to the water... veeeerrry slowly... like 1/2 cup at a time in 10,000 gallons of water and still get a reaction.

very dangerous. so dangerous that in high school, my teacher gathered the class around a table for a demonstration. A pea sized piece was placed in a bowl of water and we watched it smoke, bubble and spin burning. somehow, we survived. Afterwards, he put the rest of the jar away in a cabinet in the classroom.

Then the Government should rightly keep people like you from owning or handling it. (not everybody, just people like you)
