Behind every indy gank in the empire, the devil is the greed.

You all can waaa waaa waaa as much as you like but you will never stop suicide ganks. The mother of all suicide ganks is greed.
n00b in 3 days old alt in hauler cant possess > 200M worth of loot. Vets who are lazy to haul 50M a time to hubs and want to haul one month's worth of loot amounting to billions in a week's old alt deserve to be ganked.
Bhaal's proposal to deter suicide ganks is nice on paper. In practice, high stake gankings are bound to happen because people become more daring to store more stuffs into "Gank Me" ships.
Moral of the story. Dont be greedy. Greed is bad mmmm'kay? Tell that to those Hawk resellers after Hawk update. Do multiple hauls. Dont try to quickly sell stuffs in Jita. Greedy gankers will ignore you if you arent greedy yourselves.

From a storyline/RP point of view it makes no sense that Concord wouldn't step up their security measures in light of these recent incidents. Someone within their organisation would look at the situation and think "hmmm, we really should increase our response to these criminal acts". It is their responsibility to ensure that people have as safe passage through Empire space as possible and if they are failing at their job then they are accountable. With all the resources at their disposal they should be able to do something.
From an RP standpoint concord isn't a police force, but a stability force desinged to keep the empires from getting into one-another's hair. Concord isn't there to prevent stuff from blowing up, it's there to prevent political situations from blowing up. It's like the UN, not like your local cops.
And Concord is very corrupted.

Oh... my... word...
Last night, a friend of mine was hauling a Large POS Tower up to Jita (in a T2 Hauler, with lots of other crap to hide it - note, crap could include 5000 bookmarks - just thought of that...  )
Anyway... he says he watched as a normal hauler got popped right in front of him as he enterred Jita.
I had an alt that was in Sobaseki, in an empty hauler, so I thought I'd pop in to Jita to take a look what's going on...
My word. It was like hunting season. The gates had swarms of BS/cruisers jsut sitting there... Concord Battleships were all over too, and there were cans hither and thither...with Iteron 3's swaming over them like vultures on carcasses...
It's like an epidemic now. I would strongly suggest to anyone unable to afford/pilot a tougher ship, to simply try sell your stuff 2 jumps from Jita...in the same region... This is insane. Jita isn't a trade hub anymore... it's the criminal headquarters of the galaxy.

And as usual, CCP's response is.... ' '
"dont go near Jita."
Seriously, there are 5000 systems for you to sell things but of all places why Jita? Greed is bad mmm'kay?

Thats what this game is about! Capitalism, mirrors the real world somewhat.
Yes and somewhere out there, big capitalistic companies have hit squads.
