Greetings Sir Now and welcome to the Junker life! As for if Junkers are allowed to pirate the answer is yes. Fact is the Junkers have enemies and those enemies do become targets of pirate attacks. This does not give a Junker complete freedom to hijack just anyone though. As a Junker you should gauge who it is your targeting for a pirate attack and make sure your not making a new enemy. A Junker really weighs in the pros and cons of what he is doing before he does it. Otherwise we fall into the same category as the factions we do business with and become hunted by lawfuls everywhere.
Was the Junker that pirated the CR a Congress member?
