Body Count
Bad cops are real. They are real and they are dangerous. Their badge seems to excuse their behavior, and they often rise above the laws they are sworn to protect. Body cameras that should be able to provide a clear and indisputable record of what happened during any questionable incident often "fail" to collect information. It seems if you simply pin a badge on your chest, you are free to kill at will in Evansville, Indiana. It's become commonplace to hear one more press conference about yet one more officer involved shooting. Line of duty deaths or cold blooded murder? You decide.

The Final Goodbye
“You brought me all the way out here to kill me? For what; so that I could enjoy the sunset one last time?” The man holding the gun sighed. “You know, this would go by a lot quicker if you kept your damn mouth shut.” The man at gunpoint chuckled. “You know me, Harry – can’t resist the urge. Then again, if you really knew me, then you would agree to talk this out instead of holding me hostage.” The man named Harry didn’t respond, choosing instead to prod the person in front of him. “Start walking up the hill, Chris.” His voice was cold and detached, with no hint of empathy. Chris sighed, and started trudging up the hill, Harry in tow, his gun staying pointed at his back. He ventured another try at a conversation, hoping that there would be some semblance of recognition from the man behind him

Stars of Solace (ep. 2)
Hello again. This is Axel, writing to you from a notebook that I hope no one will discover yet. Actually, this counts more as my first time writing here since I sent my previous letter through the wind like a paper plane; looking back, it was foolish and desperate.

Reason First: Only Individualism can Save MS-13 Members
Speculation about whether women cause wars has been thrown around for millenia. Each instance where it would seem like a lady sparked a combat action is shrouded in mystery, even fallacy.
