Read the news as I awoke in my decon pod, ship berthed in Omega with the Distant Worlds fleet. I've always regarded the Empire as the least truly civilized faction, and been more cautious when dealing with them, but this??? Such a thing would *never* occur in Federal Congress, or the Alliance Assembly! Sure Federal sting operations may be brutal, I've assisted in such before, but the end goal is a trial if possible and it is attempted in the least public setting where the target can be reached. Maybe that's the only way you can take action against someone as powerful as an Imperial Senator but for the galaxy's sake, at least hold some sort of trial before you off them all! You Imperials have just confirmed to the entire universe that your concept of justice involves a knife in the back of whomever you think is at odds with you. There is a fine line between justice and vengeance, and you folks are waaaay over it!In fairness I know there are still Imperials who are at least more honorable than this, I do not fault you here, but for your own sakes please take a good hard look at your leaders and yourselves: is this the honorable and glorious Empire you revere?
