Instead of reacting with hostility, perhaps we should take this opportunity to give someone who may be well connected in a journalism sense a real idea of what things are like around here; that we're not out to shoot people and eat their babies, and that we have a real community here built on trust, where issues such as drug safety and purity are frequently addressed to help ensure that people use their drugs safely.This isn't an underworld black market. Whilst being the anti-thesis of that, it's also the evolved, more intelligent, and safer descendant of it. It's a 'commune' where people are free to do whatever they want to their own bodies, and by doing so responsibly, demonstrate that a self-regulated drug market on the deepweb is FAR safer for all concerned than real world drug markets. We generally look out for each other here, and as SR has previously stated, this isn't just a place to buy your medicines of choice online - it's a revolution.From a social/economic point of view, society can learn a lot from the economics and social concepts at play here on the Silk Road, possibly resulting in new economic systems being implemented in countries around the world. All big talk, yes, but every tree starts out as a seed.Perhaps if the general population can be re-assured that self-regulated markets like ours aren't what the current media stories portray them as, then self-regulated markets - both legal and illegal - may become more palatable and less of a threat to citizens (voters), who directly influence the manifestos and law-making of democratically elected governments.Just my 0.02 cents.- grahamgreene
