To the Liberty Navy and Orbital Spa and Cruise - Recovery - 07-03-2010
Incoming Transmission
Comm ID: Captain Walter Emmerich, LSFC-Heroic
I come with news of a very disturbing series of occurences. The first part of this message will be addressed to OSC concerning one of their Liner Captains. The S&C Triumph was seen in Manhatten orbit, firing randomly into "empty space". However, his shots were passing dangerously close to the planet, so I asked him to stop. He rudely refused, saying he had the right to endanger civilians. I told him repeatdly to cease fire, until finally left. However, he began spouting lies about my sanity, leading me to finally confront him at west point. He continued insulting me, and claiming he had broken no laws. Obviously, he refused to leave the system until agent Jinko intervened. Now, I realise that you in no way endorse his actions. I think highly of OSC, they've helped our officers forget their worries and such. That is why I believe you will take appropriate disciplinary measures.
I shall now address the Liberty Navy High Command. It wasn't too long before the S&C Triumph returned, despite the order to leave. I stopped him at Norfolk, where the whole incident started again. This time, though, Navy Officer Neo stepped in. He decided to believe the criminal's lies, docking at Norfolk and getting his cruiser. I was beginning to use force to remove the criminal, when Neo took the Nebuchadnezzar and placed himself between the Heroic and the Triumph. He threataned to fire upon me if I shot the "civilian". This is obviously an act of treason. If it were not for him, the situation would have been dealt with before the bounty-hungry mercenaries had arrived. Said mercenaries took down the Heroic and sent it limping back to Norfolk. Because of Captain Neo, I have lost many fine members of my crew. I do hope this issue will be dealt with, severely.
Both of these occurences are signs that discipline is needed. Badly. I hope you make the wise descision and ensure their punishment.
Emmerich out.

Retransmitting protocols engaged. This is a HIGH priority message. I expect a reply promptly from either of the involved parties, as this is extremely important.

Although I am not involved directly, I still want to comment on here as Captain Neo might join the LCBO in the near future. I'd say that Neo made the right choice, if it's your word against the other person's, it would be irresponsible to just accept the fact that there was a vessel being shot at. For him there was no reason to believe you more than the other person. If I were in that situation I would have chosen a diplomatic situation as well. Also you haven't brought any proof in your transmission so we still don't know whether you speak the truth. Please bring proof of that there was indeed a lawbreaker and bring proof of that captain Neo did know for certain that it was a lawbreaker.

Although I was not involved in the incident, there's still a point to be made. First of all, we (the LSF) to act in accordance to the threat. Especially that applies to the comanders of LSF Secondary Division Heavy Units. Considering the fact that S&C_Triumph is Enterprise-class vessel and can't really pose a threat, you should have acted on "adequate countermeasure" basis. This involves covering the planet with the hull of your cruiser (the Liners are not equipped that good to damage your ship seriously). Any attempt to use lethal force for simply being insulted is not a viable option.
Now the second incident. The actions of captain Neo were right, since there is a term of "innocence presumption". Any attempts to attack a civilian vessel without VERY IMPORTANT reason are not appreciated, even by individual members of LSF Seconday Division and Navy Secondary Fleet.

I can see that you don't get my point here. I had already established that punishment was needed against the Liner, yet Cpt. Neo seemed to have trouble believing me. It appears he has trust issues, and doesn't seem to know that I am qualified to make such descisions. More so than him, at least. Him firing on my ship based on a decision without sufficient evidence is simply outrageous. I was present at the scene of the crimes, conducted the operation, and carried out the punishment. Cpt. Neo had just come on duty, with no knowledge of the events. He had insufficient evidence, and acted violently based on that. This is unacceptable. My guncam was damaged in the attack by the Nebuchadnezzer, so I am unable to provide shots at this time.

Now I guess you don't see my point, commander. Attmepting to use capital vessel's weapons (even to remove the criminal) against a Liner or a transport will surely result in unnecessary civilian casualties, and that the LSF can not allow. That's why I justify Neo's actions. Intercepting fighters and transpots is not Heavy Units' purpose.
Insults are not enough to cause such "harsh penalties". If I were involved, I would bring the captain of S&C_Triumph in for questioning. Again, attempts to remove such threats are to be left to appropriate units. Capital vessels are created to deal with more dangerous and important targets.
I've made my point. However, I would advise to wait for official response. You are free to question my point, but in my opinion that's how we should work.
O'Connor out.

Well, I see your point, but you don't realize that I was the only ship in the area. I attempted to order the Triumph out of the system, but the captain did not comply with any of my requests. All other options had been explored, so force was necessary. Neo simply flew up in his guardian, saw me attempting to do my job, and took command of his cruiser to stop me. He took the word of a possible criminal over that of an LSF captain. Obviously, this implies a lack of information to base such a desicion on. He put both our crew's lives at risk over an issue of mistrust for fellow Liberty officials.

I completely agree with mister Norman O'Connor. A liner poses absolutely no threat and have many civilians inside them. You might have caused the deaths of multiple innocents, and captain Neo prevented any further needless casualties.

You don't seem to get the point. Criminals must be punished, and that captain was a criminal. What else would there have been to do, but resort to violence? However, attacking an LSF captain based on insufficient evidence? Explain the logic in that.

The point is simple: by the Liberty Code we are to uphold the law. But one of the Liberty laws states that civilian vessels are not to be attacked unless you have VERY important reasons. Casting insults is not such a reason. That vessel was corporate, it had a right to be in the system, no matter what your personal issues with its captain are. Another law of the Libety Code states that capital vessels are not to attack smaller craft unless it poses a real threat to national security (the sub-laws definite the term "threat").
Then, seeing your attempt to break this law, captain Neo acted to prevent such issues. If I was him, I would act in the same way: imagine, you see the Libertonian capital ship and the commander of the ship breaks two laws at the same time. Conclusion: the commander is either a traitor, or infested. There's also an option that the commander doesn't know all the laws, but I guess this is not the case, because those who don't know the laws are not given the right to command a cruiser (or are deprived of that right soon).
Neo knew nothing of the previous incident, so he followed the "presumption of innocence" rule. I hope now you fully understand why I support his position.
I'll be waiting for the official response on this channel. O'Connor out.
