When Two Governors Meet

[Doc Holliday]

He sat back a moment after the governor finished speaking. He saw him as another politician saying what his government wanted him to say. He just shook his head a little.
"Just like Bretonia," he commented with a hint of disgust. "The Crown once spoke to me, to us, as you are now. If only you could hear yourself."
He adjusted himself in his chair. "We Zoners left the houses for places like Gran Canaria and Erie and the systems outside of houses because of your oppression. Like the Crown, you want to subjugate Zoners to force them into being tax paying citizens and forcing your law upon them. If any of them to up citizenship it is because they were probably in one of those camps you all had and forced them."
He sat back a little, "We had peaceful lives until Liberty showed up because of Insurgents. I guess you all found it convenient to occupy Erie."

He then collected himself before his temper started flaring. He even smiled a little. "I really do not care if I am killed in some terrorist attack. There is a reason why I have a sizeable piece of land on this planet. Everyone knows I am there and they respect my space. It may not seem it now but I may well be saving us all. The only way you or I will not suffer the wrath of the Resistance is if they have someone in charge that THEY want, not what Liberty wants. The Zoners fear the Liberty government more than any Xeno or Rogue."

"So you asked what those militants would do if you all withdrew. They would not disarm but they would be more at ease. It is not Liberty citizens they have the issue with, it is the government. As I said, I am trying to save us all because force will only make things worse."

He finished. He then sat back. He was expecting the governor's deaf ear.
