Ms. Silvan, If the Zoners instead of putting more force into goading the Corsairs in to conflict, the Zoners put more force into even handedly enforcing Zoner laws, none of this would be an issue. We have time after time come to deals with you Zoners, our only request has always been to fairly enforce your rules. That means when a Corsair is attacked by a Bounty Hunter in the Freeport zone, he is held to an equal standard to the Corsair who does it. Unfortunately time after time we have been clearly shown this is not true. Not long ago the Zoner Council voted a new rule to disallow the Freeports to be used as a base for attacks against the Zoners neighbors, a good and thoughtful law. The problem is yet again, when a Corsair bring evidence, he is dismissed by the Zoners, members of the Zoner Council went so far as to say that the Corsair in question was asking for it, by not fleeing the Freeport zone. This is not neutrality. If the Zoners would put as much energy into their neutrality as they do arguing with Corsairs, their would be no more arguments with Corsairs. If our relations were better, I would gladly, as I have done in the past, punish Corsairs violating Zoner laws, but as I can't count on the Zoners to do the same when the attack is against a Corsair, I find my self in the position I am in today, dismissing the complaints of the Zoners, much like they dismiss the complaints of Corsairs.
