If I wanted to change Imperial and Khanid institutions, I would do it in the form of a petition. Petitions reek of Gallente culture: a culture of self-entitlement.

If we can't buy them how else can we free them?

If we can't buy them how else can we free them?

I will never sign such a treaty and I encourage any people supporting the matari to do the same.

This "proposal" is not Because The Amarr are merciful to the slaves, no. Its Their greed to monopolize the Slave market for their own gain. The ignorant PIE speaks such nice words about how they will make it so the Blood cults wont aquire slaves from the market. But we all know that some of the Blood fanatics work with the IC14 and most likely have access to slaves anyway. Either through SCC like now or through the empire. If they would really care about the well being of the slaves they would have been freed a long time ago. But their wicked lies will continue aslong as we dont do anything about it.

Freedom to the Matari people! Death to all slavers and betrayers!

This petition is useless , pointless, removing slaves from the market will not stop the trade in slaves. Only turn the trade in slaves underground. Making it less regulated and controlled , worsening of conditions for the slaves themselves.

These kind of actions are typical of the liberal elite fascists.

Such petitions should be made by Trade Registry and MIO, not pushed by a bunch of soulless from every corner of New Eden on public venues with pirate loyalists in their midst.

Liberal? This is as conservative a measure as you can get.

Some information:

The slave trade in Amarr has been going on for thousands of years in legal planetside markets, between Holders. These are heavily regulated markets, which have very specific Scripture-defined rules about who can and cannot deal in slaves. These markets are not, and have never needed, the SCC.

During the liberalization and internationalism of our society in the last century, certain elements of our leadership agreed to participate in an extraplanetary CONCORD-created free market known as the SCC. In this unregulated open market, it was possible for people who have no legal right to slaves to acquire them. In this way, it is in fact the SCC that is an illegal market, by Amarrian laws, because it allows unscrupulous elements in Amarr society to bypass the normal regulations and restrictions of our local policies to sell to a wider base of people who have no legal or spiritual right to own slaves.

This proposal does not turn the trade underground. It returns it to local Amarrian planetside markets, under traditional regulations and policies. That makes it a conservative proposal, not a liberal one. Free market economies, of which the SCC is, is economic liberalism. Conservatism is preserving traditional values and systems. The divine right of Holders to be the sole legal owners of slaves is a traditional value, and our local planetside slave markets a traditional system.

If you had read what was posted, then you would know that this is not an abolitionist proposal and has no intent on stopping the trade. The intent of this, is to move the trade back to local markets, between certified Holders, under the traditions and regulations that have governed the slave trade in Amarr society for thousands of years.

Such petitions should be made by Trade Registry and MIO, not pushed by a bunch of soulless from every corner of New Eden on public venues with pirate loyalists in their midst.

Until the Trade Registry, MIO, and other Amarr corporations and organizations do that, this is the best you will get and it certainly is better than nothing.

I believe the hope is that with enough voices, this will be carried onto organizations more powerful than the "soulless".

Sorry but no, capsuleers shouldn't have a say in Imperial policies, especially foreigners. If this petishion was directed at the SCC and CONCORD I would be for it, but it's not.

What else can we do, Mr. Vellum?

This petition is without claws. The Ammar will never restrict it's peoples' access to slaves; their frail civilization would slowly avalanche into total collapse.

Try developing your reading comprehension. This petition is to cease the sale of slaves on the SCC. It has nothing to do with the Amarr at all - Concord would make the decision and the SCC would enforce it through the simple step.of delisting the commodities in question.

No, Pieter, it's not that.

It's to get Amarr authorities to make organizations like the Civic Court and Ammatar Consulate remove their standard sell orders from the SCC, and return to conducting their trade of slaves to local planetside markets only.

I shall add my signature to this noble cause.

The relationship between Holder and Slave is a holy covenant with God: the slave offers their blood and toil to God's greater glory . . .
