Welcome to the right side of history, Pilot Tichim. I wish you all the best in your attempts to pry open the ossified minds and closed-off hearts of your people.

Granted it doesn't happen often but it happens.
Oh really? Some poor abused wretch of a slave from a backwater colony could have Jamyl summoned to court? Proof most definitely required to validate this point.

Pilot Baracca I contend that your "cure" for the perceived ills of society (poverty, crime, etc). are far worse than the disease. Your slavery strips away a person's most fundamental right of self-determination, subjugates them to the arbitrary whims of another, condemns that person's offspring to the same for generations and best case scenario after 9 lifetimes the resulting children are free to become serfs to the landed gentry class with no hope of upward mobility, having been stripped of their culture or anything that makes them unique. Have I missed something? Are you really saying that the best course for humanity's continued existence is for us all to become a homogenized slurry of Amarr just in slightly different skin tones?
No thanks. I like diversity and a bit of chaos. It's what allows to move forward, encourages new thinking and new solutions. It's what makes us human. I'd rather live free with the ills than be essentially killed by your cure.

Kor-Azor is not the Emperor. Granted he is a Royal Heir but, that's a far cry from being the ruler of the empire.
Please show me where in your empire's laws it's written that a regular citizen or a slave who is "owned" by a citizen has the right to have the sitting monarch called into a court to answer charges leveled by said regular citizen. I doubt you'll find such.
