64. Empire or Honour? - in Intergalactic Summit [original thread]
Forgive me, but I disagree: those of us lucky enough to have been free citizens our whole lives are still perfectly capable of having our opinions on the subject. First-hand experience is not the only valid form of education, and while I may not...
