police vs Pirates

[McNeo]

And that deserves a hearty AMEN !
Furthermore, the opposite of that statement may be described as jack-booted thuggery hiding behind a badge, or more simply, as mere fascism.
What I think would be helpful for all of us is for the Official House Police and Military Clans to start one thread somewhere where they each state their policies (laws) about these sorts of things. What we have now is a motley assortment of blowhards and preening cap ships scattered amongst a few good RPers who are leveling all sorts of ridiculous "laws" at everyone else, and then opening fire when they don't get their way.
We have all seen traders and smugglers get attacked by the so-called lawfuls, but when have we ever seen a lawful punished for abuse of power or crossing the line?
If your so-called laws are not written down somewhere that provides easy access for everyone, then they don't exist, and you are nothing more than a bully to quote them to anyone from behind the barrels of your guns.
Your use of force might satisfy you, but it breeds nothing but disrespect from everyone else.

RM does that all the time, and no one's ever complained about them. (reffering what morrigan said in the quote which doesn't show up inside the quote box above)

In fact, I agree what Morrigan says and what Xoria agrees with. Lazy cops or military should get their butts on patrol...
