To all Concerned Citizens of Sirius:
Have you ever had one of those days where it seems like every vile or amoeba brained denizen in or around the four colonies is trying to pry you out of your cockpit with a particle cannon?
Your intrepid pilot has had one of those days.
In recent days the formerly somewhat serene environs of Colorado, Texas, and Hudson have been witness to an escalating series of terrorist attacks by that loathsome (and somewhat pathetic) menace known to us as Xenos.
On this day alone, your humble reporting pilot was the subject of two attacks by terrorists, once in the Colorado system and again in the Hudson system.
A third attack was adroitly avoided by the use of jump holes in the Colorado system.
The Colorado attack was carried out by the violent hooligan masquerading as a freedom fighter known by the name of "Prospector", in his gunboat. The Hudson system's act of perfidy was perpetrated by the vile "Ravager" piloting a Crow fighter.
In the Colorado incident, this author escaped only by coolly ejecting from the exploding remains of his freighter. The Hudson incident was essentially "evaded to a standstill."
In the past, the Xenos have been somewhat lovingly tolerated as Liberty's own unique brand of local color, and a convenient dumping ground for lunatics with piloting skills.
However, the recent introduction of high tech weaponry and state of the art fighter craft suggests a more malevolent twist to the group that was once the butt of jokes at every Manhattan cocktail party.
I call on the LSF to commence an immediate investigation into the Xenos' source of funding that is purchasing these wicked weapons. I suspect that foreign entities may be attempting to destabilize Liberty through surreptitious funding of this band of cutthroat bozos.
Furthermore, I call on all peace loving members of the Sirius space faring community to join together to rid our worlds, trade lanes, and insurance policies of this vile scourge.
Where are you Hellfire Legion?!
Where are you Nayehiya?!
These fools threaten your interests as much as anyones!
You claim to fight for the oppressed, but the Xenos are stealing from the mouths of every child in Liberty!
Please report all incidents of terrorist activity, including the star system and call-sign of the malodorous marauder.
LSF and the SA take note: Those you claim to protect are watching you! Are you up to the challenge? We shall soon see.
I also propose the establishment of a semi formal committee tasked with laying plans for the ultimate elimination of the Xenos from Liberty, and the atomization of Ouray and Barrows Bases with high grade Fusion bombs.
Which of Liberty's eminent pilots will step forward to undertake this noble effort?
At the very least, donations for bounties could be accepted and mercenaries could be employed to bring us their trigger fingers on silver platters (since they love the Silverton field so much).
Discuss.
Aim.
Fire!
