| Message | Announced over the Radio in a PMRG controlled town by General Thompson: "...See, brothers and sisters, how the aristocrat oppressors run in fear and panic! They shout punishments and threats, and fire their guns left and right, desperately trying to keep safe from their enemies. But their enemies are the people, and the people cannot be silenced. Their battle is a lost cause, a fight that can only result in victory for the people. They are outnumbered and outmatched. The warriors of freedom shall never shirk from battle. The aristocrats are driven by greed. We are driven by something much more powerful, and that thing is righteousness. The Revolutionary Armed Forces shall never fall, and the traitors to Sekowo shall be brought to justice. Today, the Supreme Military Tribunal of Sekowo has convicted Craig Latham in absentia of murder, theft, forcible confinement, electoral fraud and treason. If he turns himself in to the tribunal by January 1 of 2313, and agrees to testify in the trials of his cohorts, the tribunal will consider leniency in it’s sentencing. If not, the traitor Craig Latham will be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Long live Sekowo!” |

The Sekowo Great Proletarian Army dies, but surrenders not. Freedom for the working class! |

| Message | I'm glad to see you're getting into it man, but would a small paramilitary group be able to attack and totally destroy several police stations? Don't you think they'd fight back? I'm just saying, it seems large, rather. |
| Date | 17:49:58, November 12, 2006 CET | From | Sekowan Social-Democractic Party | To | Debating the Justice Act of 2312 |
| Message | The Social-Democratic Party condems this bill as an affront to liberty and an attack upon our most basic freedoms. |
