I call this treason. How is this treason? I am calling for change to improve my nation. That is not treason. That is patriotism. Do you have an authority for this?

If there is nothing else one of the greatest redeeming issues of the empire (no its not perfect but neither are you. Its the destination) is that even the smallest person can take even the Emperor before the courts.

I just find it humorous that people like Andreus are so quick to say "No thank, you now move along" but when it comes to points they know to be fact he is the most vocal about pushing said point.
So arguments ensue and feelings are hurt, feathers ruffled and everyone goes away thinking the other is an idiot.
At the end of the day the Federation is just as forceful about shoving freedom down your throat as we are about shoving our religion
when all along we both want people to do what they want as long as they don't hurt anyone around them or themselves.
So consider this the olive branch, accept that men/women need guidance to do good and we can hash out the specifics as to how.
Slavery may just very well die and frankly maybe it should but I'm never going to believe that men should be free outside a moral code any more then a government enacts laws to the same effect. People must be held accountable for their actions and prevented from hurting society. I'm sure or lest I hope that's something we all can agree on.
So called 'freedoms' be damned, your free when you can prove you can respect the rules and the people around you.
Not before. |

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.
Said the law is in place to allow for such a thing. No one said it has happened. |
