    *This article is circulated in some form on the INN StarNet site, radio channel and other associated media.*

    [​IMG] ​

    INN was recently contacted by Director Fox of the Joint Defense Initiative, who wanted to speak as an official on the rising contention surrounding Florans on Port Last. Editor-in-Chief Nicholas Praino reports in this shocking, exclusive interview.

    [​IMG]
    "I am fully aware" -Lance Corporal Felith , far left, on the murderous and hostile nature of Florans.​

    "The Joint Defense Initiative is a program started by several distinct members of the community who would rather not be named at this time." explains Director Fox, sat crippled a few feet from the largely mechanical and battle scarred Lance Corporal behind her. "They deal with the Floran threat."

    "Look to Taranis, to Gum, and even here. The BlackFangs have struck without a clear opposing force for a long time." Director Fox goes on to list some of the community members who have suffered under the Floran threat. "Private Mkvenner, who marched into hell without a single thought. Private Junko, who waded into the acidic wastes to save the slaves held by the Blackleaves..."

    When asked to comment on the levels of tolerance presented towards Florans considering these facts, Lance Corporal Felith comments "The Florans here are split from the Hivemind; the fact is, they fight against their own kind to keep their new home safe." But this writer wonders, do they really? What if it is all a ruse to undermine the colony's security?

    "Are you aware that the majority of Florans are murderous and hostile?" INN asks.

    "I am fully aware."

    Considering the casualties incurred, INN inquired about any security or screening process to determine if a Floran still has malicious intent.

    "There is no "Screening" process for Florans." responds the Lance Corporal. "If they are here to kill people. If they refuse to put away their weapons, there you go."

    "There is no need to enact harsher laws on one race, when the laws are already fitting for all races. There has not been one incident of a Floran sneaking past security, and successfuly harming a civilian." claims Lance Corporal Felith, in spite of yesterday's chaos.

    "But is it possible for a Floran to do so?" asks INN.

    " Yes, I imagine so." answers Felith.

    As the Florans continue to terrorize innocent, peaceful colonists, security infrastructure continues to prove inadequate to defend peaceful citizens of Port Last. How long can such glaring faults exist before another tragedy occurs? This reporter can only hope it is long enough for things to improve.

    It's shocking that Port Last would put its people at risk by not even so much as a screening process for Floran visitors. Keep putting out excellent content, Nicholas.

    We here at Interstellar News Network always try our best to remain neutral, our only goal is to report the facts and report the stories that the people deserve to know. You will find if you look through your own conversation log that everything that was claimed to have been said was actually said, none of the quotes used were falsified.

    I matched the transcript with quotes from the articles, and they are telling the truth; no quote was falsified.

    Response. As a response to the fear-mongering conducted by this "press", I want to point out that majority of Outcasts are humans.
    Suggestion. Since it takes a faction to spoil an entire race, I suggest screenings for humans to determine their malicious intent, as they seem to be a species that resorts to violence for the hell of it, instead of as a matter of survival...

    My friend...

    You have it backwards in the case of the Florans.

    The impression of an entire race is affecting the outlook of a faction.

    The above is an opinion.

    The knowledge that the Floran race as a whole is violent, primal, and unstable is widely accepted and demonstrable fact.

    You've just met me via a StarNet message and are already forming assumptions about me. What is the point?

    Response. Considering Taranis' Abyss has taken criminals of all races who deserve the death-penalty, from organized anarchists to feral savages, your argument holds very little ground.

    Educate. Once upon a time there was a human who came to Taranis, robbed a woman in broad daylight, was ordered to drop his weapons, after which he opened fire on us. He was killed in the firefight.
    Query. What precious loot did he risk his life for with that robbery?
    Response. 40 pixels.

    Addendum. Here's his record, only thing left of him after his termination and casting down mentioned Abyss:

    [​IMG]
    Status: Terminated
    Name: Unknown
    Race: Human
    Gender: Male
    Details: None
    Criminal Record:
    4.11.2414 - Robbery of 40 pixels, resisted arrest with deadly weapons, terminated.
    4.11.2414 - Assault with a deadly weapon, resisted arrest, terminated.

    Query. Shall I get the rest of the records about "intelligent" species doing the most stupidest things on Taranis?

    Didn't you help a Floran rip off and eat the arm of a civilian on a USCM colony?

    Response. Said Floran is dead.

    ((Although I wonder how a record of that incident is kept if the colony was destroyed))
