Until your leaders officially deputize your organizations you'll be nothing more than vigilantes and armed thugs.
Tsk, tsk. You know better, Kaleigh. Several of the paramilitaries have been honored by the Amarr Empire, and have been given the mandate to keep doing what we do.
If that's not "deputized" enough for a cultist such as yourself, then I suppose that's just too bad...

Yes, I'm sure the Empire is more than happy to see its borders artificially expanded thanks to the work of its lapdog elite, to reward you with shiny medals and trinkets to keep you dying for their agendas. But, somehow I doubt you would continue to be in Providence if you weren't making a profit.
Let's skip the pretense, shall we?
And this has precisely what to do with the legitimacy of the paramilitaries in the eyes of those we serve?
Or, heck, shall we turn Camar's statement of intentions into a discussion about which areas of lawless space are more profitable (you'll find Providence somewhere near the bottom) or how much has been invested by the CVA in protecting their expansion of the Amarrian borders vs how much profit has really been made? You know many of the objectives of the Deliverance project; surely you can draw your own conclusions about how "profitable" it is to daily throw ships at pirates, mercs, crazed heretics, and terrorists day in and day out to create a safe haven in what would otherwise be lawless space.
I've lost ships, I've lost clones, and I've probably damned myself in the process of service. Yes, I have the moral high ground. Yes, I'm looking down on you.

Unless I'm mistaken
Ah, and now we get to the point.
You are mistaken.

Perhaps you should try responding to her statement rather than dodging the whole issue.
And perhaps you should pay attention to my previous statements where I rather directly addressed the whole issue. I don't dodge. Ms Doyle has made some rather surprisingly short-sighted statements about the paramilitaries and their legitimacy and she's wrong, plain and simple.
Sure, the terrorists aren't going to want to see our legitimacy. Sure, the heretics aren't going to want to see our legitimacy. But if anyone wants to question the Amarr Empire's stance on our legitimacy...there's no question that the Empire supports our actions and has even directly recognized several of our organizations for doing what we do.
