Take a hint,just because you can fly there and shoot something doesn't mean you should do it .. InRP
Police faction should patrol and shoot unlawfuls only in House Space while Navy/Military faction should only shoot House Factions that are hostile to them
Glad that its been fixed,enforcing house laws in independent worlds was ridiculous

You can still pursue your target to O-7/O-3 while you are in scanner range and continue the fight,if he/she escapes it means he/she won..
Besides..BPA could not attack unlawfuls in O-7 before the change,so..let's not involve them into discussion..

You won't see it anymore,afterall..there's a war that need more attention,one that bretonia lost quite a few of its military resources recently

Planet Sprague,it's only a refugee camp,it would help if you imagine it as tent filled with some sleeping bags and 1 or 2 armed mans ,because that's the scale of that planet in the Sirius sector

The police/navy/military factions have the means to control traffic , oversee application of laws and impose sanctions in house space.
When it comes to systems bordering house space it makes sense that they would not have that amount of control. These systems should be kinda of a wild west imo, with certain lawfull interference , but still mostly roamed by criminals, pirates and such. These are Independent Systems and even tho houses assume control over them , they should still remain Independent and less full of threats for unlawfulls.
Also it is not like unlawfulls are gonna have complete control anyways. Police and navies can still patrol the systems but they won't attack every "red" willy-nilly on sight. They will have to RP and wait for the pirate to actually put that houses traders and/or assets in danger for them to intervene.
I think this is a good change.
+1
People want to believe that God has a plan for them.
They don't wanna believe that anyone else does..
