Sir, my sincerest apologies to you and your family. This USS Titan is not an authorized agent of Liberty, and had no authority to order you to stop except within the context of a citizens arrest. If he indeed opened fire upon your ship and destroyed it, he is guilty of destruction of property and will be dealt with accordingly.
Currently, a mercenary ban is in effect in Liberty because, while some reputable mercenaries such as the Mandalorians, Jupiter Guild or Bounty Hunters Guild maintain a stance of ethics, some less savoury groups choose to accept only unlawful contracts or choose from both sides, and present a potential threat to us as being capable of shooting our staff (A ship identified as Derelict opened fire and destroyed the ship of Fleet Admiral Woolsey as part of an unsuccessful contract killing in New York, in one case) that the majority of High Command feels we cannot afford.
Currently, the sinister forces of Rheinland continue to mobilize for war and propagandize against our noble House. We must stand resolute against our enemies and in unity with our friends. As such, we of the Liberty Navy regret to say that you will have to leave Liberty, attempt to file for exemption on the grounds of ethical practice, or take up a different occupation.
Yours Sincerely
Captain Richard Ira Bong, Captain of the LNS Dewey (under construction)
