Move out of the way, asshole. We're here on legal collection orders. This is them, repaying a debt. You can check with any authority in the city, it's stamped and legitimate. They belong to AGI.

What it does is put a dent in our public image in the eyes of the judicial system.

Are they more likely to listen to a reasonable group of people who solve things in a logical and civilized manner? Or will they dismiss our arguments as coming from a group of psychopaths who punch holes in people on a whim?

You stepped into the middle of their operation which, while a noble thing to do, was something they had every right to do under the current law.

And then you punched a hole in a guy on tape.

I didn't kill the others, did I? They could have simply waited to pick them up at another time.

You seem to be missing my point. I'll try to make it a little less subtle.

Killing people is bad. Don't do it.

It's also the most direct route for dealing with them. Are you going to moralize with me, now?

They have the legal advantage over us. By taking the low road, all we do is justify their dismissal of our perspectives.

You honestly think people like this listen to anything that people like you have to say?

They do, and they have.

We're in the middle of dismantling the system of slavery piece by piece. What we don't need is vigilantes kicking mud all over the nice, neat judicial process.

And how do you intend to "dismantle" it?

I never said it was going to be easy. But it's the only right way to do it. Eliminating a barbaric practice through barbarism is completely backwards.

I guess we haven't been in the same situations.
