Liberty Rules

[chopper]

I was just chased by a bounty hunter (on my Outcast character) for 180k away from Manhatan, and while being chased, I'v seen an interesting sentence by one of the SA officers.

He said that engaging Bounty Hunters in Liberty is forbidden.
How is that true? I mean, NPC's don't care if you shoot at BHG NPC's, why should players care?
Bounty Hunters shouldn't be under protection of the Liberty authorities, and i mean it.
Why? Because they are a bunch of grunts as well.
They would kill just about anyone for a small reward, even if it's against Liberty laws.

It doesn't make sense to me. Bounty Hunter NPC's can engage you for carrying BD pilots (example, even though Blood Dragon pilots aren't contraband for Liberty authorities), but you can't retaliate without being shot down by one of the Liberty law enforcers?
Oh cmon, that isn't Liberty.
People are whining about Bounty Hunter cap whores all the time, and what do we do to prevent it?
We put them under our protection. Great..

Please someone in charge of the SA/LSF/LPI comment this.

It is every Corsair's responsibility to die a beautiful death in defense of Crete, regardless of how OORP or how capwhoring the opposition is. Launch your fighter, joust the battlecruisers and die a beautiful death. Then, drink it down in the bar.
