[Norman Osborn/Sucks and Has Stupid Hair and Wants to Be Stark]
[ Norman sounds serious when he speaks, perhaps even... super serious. This must be important or something. ]
For far too long, our rights as citizens in the City have been consistently denied and stomped upon. While I'm certain many of us can understand the origin of such trepidation, it has been only up until recently that imPorts have been unjustly scapegoated in manners of global or economic concern, or otherwise punished for an act of "immigration" entirely out of any of our hands.
Now. My aim here isn't to preach. These are simple facts, and I wholeheartedly offer my support to those who allowed us to register as citizens as long last so that we, like any other natives in the City, could have an equal say in who our Mayor would be.
Some people understand this, but some people still obviously do not. What happened today was a tragedy, and to think that there are still people so opposed to our existence that they would kill to prove a point speaks little for progress, but heavily for the reaction to progress.
Well I, for one, embrace progress. Candidate Bendis' support will not go forgotten or ignored, nor will his death and the implications behind it stop our right to contribute to our society. The Norman Osborn Hospital of Psychiatric Evaluation will be opening as scheduled. If anyone has further objections, I'd suggest that you put your weapons away and come speak with me. My office door is open.
