need 500 words for this easy assignment

The discussion post for this week has two parts as follows:

1. Oliver Wendell Holmes on The Common Law

2. Vampire Contracts?

For purposes of this assignment, assume vampires (like the ones pictured below, bottom right) are real! (uploaded)

Professor Guerra-Pujol has taken the position that agreements between humans and vampires for the purchase and sale of blood should be 100% legal. Do you agree? Why or why not? (250 words)
