I have seen a lot of confusion and contention regarding my earlier post to the network.
Let me assure you, fellow citizens, that what I am suggesting is nothing to show such concern about.
As the Chief of Police, even I have yet to meet any of the 'governing officials' in control of our lives here. How can we allow ourselves to follow a people who so indiscriminately demand we adjust to their ways of life, their ideals of reality, when they can not even lower themselves to the level of speaking directly with the people they hold captive?
Our numbers are small, now, I admit it. It is an undeniable fact of our lives here.
What I am suggesting is a break from their systems and rules. That we take it upon ourselves, to govern ourselves. To create our own systems and organizations. As it is, there are already several vigilantes and vigilante groups that operate outside of New Moore law. I am not suggesting a total takeover of the island. Merely a rising up in demand of our rights. If nothing else, we owe it to each other to look after one another when our alleged government is clearly so ready and willing to abandon us.
We have all known how willing they are to provide us with excuses and lies to the situations and strange events that occur on this island. The very lies the force us, your police force, your protection, to feed to you after ever incident occurs.
You all have thought this before. Deny it all you wish, but none of you are pleased by this deception. They think we are sheep to be easily led to the slaughter. That we will roll over and believe any foolish fable they submit to us.
Are you really willing to follow a government that has no investment in any of you? Whether you live or die or disappear without a trace does not matter to them. If you believe it does you are either a blind fool, or very new.
You can call these ideas revolutionary or brazen. You can deny these thoughts have ever entered your mind. But you would only be lying to yourselves.
If our government is so willing to abandon us, then we create our own. We look out for each other. What is there to look down upon, on the idea of supporting each other where the 'real' people will not?
We owe it to ourselves to protect one another from the corruption and secrecy of the people who hold us here.
Before you argue against it, I ask only that you consider one thing. Do you really believe your life before this was fictional? You were snatched from your life and brought here, forced to learn and live by the laws of another people. Do you trust the people who tore you from your life to feed you lies and then leave you to fend for yourselves at the first sign of danger?
