Senators call for crackdown on Silk Road

Well, silk road is still up. Nice try feds.

The Silk Road site is “audacious” and reminds me of the internet gambling controversy: that the net trumps paltry international borders and laws. But once the Feds get into the act it seems doubtful it will last for long, although another site like this one will inevitably spring up. It still seems too much of a risk to have the drugs sent to one's home address though. Right?

hmmm...guess these guys still don't understand the fact that unless they were to say, choose to regulate the drugs instead of "fighting" them, they will NEVER have control. people want what they want and they will find a way.

hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm

the internet :)

Too bad meth, heroin and cocaine have to ruin it for everyone.

Machin was a fool as Governor, and now he's a fool as Senator.

That's progress, I guess!

I was never fond of Byrd (worst think that ever happened to WV, turning the whole state into a welfare state, were all "jobs" are based upon pork), but I'm starting to think that Machin is worse....

Official Response from Silk Road:

As many of you know, U.S. Senators are aware of the site and aiming to take it down:
"This audacious website should be shut down immediately," Manchin said.

Here's a link: [link]

The die have been cast and now we will see how they land. We will be diverting even more effort into countering their attacks and making the site as resilient as possible, which means we may not be as responsive to messages for a while.

I'm sure this news will scare some off, but should we win the fight, a new era will be born. Even if we lose, the genie is out of the bottle and they are fighting a losing War already.

lol - GOOD LUCK FEDS
This is the just the newest site with Publicity, but there are hundreds like this that have been operating for years with complete safety. One vendor has been doing mail-order for 25+ years without trouble. Silk Road is going nowhere, and neither are the others.

Purchasing substances this way is cheaper, safer, and nearly guaranteed to be purer than anything you can buy elsewhere. Nice sites like SOS or Bluelight help the process to be much more pleasant.

Don't believe the senator's hype yet. Silk Road just has publicity. The other sites have obscurity. The Senators have no clue what the fuck is going on, and they never will. Silk Road will just use a different Tor node and name and nothing else will happen.
