| "Does not the Secretary of Defence have to pass things by the | |
| President of the NCSA first? Representative Baroness Honey | |
| Baroda asked. She looked at other representatives, a shocked | |
| look upon her face. | |
| "Was there any meeting that Congress was not aware of between | |
| the President and the NCSA Secretary of Defence before | |
| Confederal agents stormed into Colombia? | |
| "Was proper documentation and a proper time frame given to the | |
| State of Columbia Confederate in regards to them wanting to | |
| nullify a law they felt over stepped their state rights? If the | |
| NCSA over the proper checks and is not held accountable. How | |
| can we ask that of states. The NCSA should lead by example." | |
| "It is a gross misjustice for Confederal officers to trespass on | |
| private property without formal papers." | |
| The Baroness flicked open her fan. Fanning herself not only was | |
| the room hot, but she was flustered. | |

| "I head up the Department of Defense, yes. But the SOD doesn't | |
| always run things by me before carrying out actions. I believe | |
| that perhaps Secretary Dawning has a few things to answer for. | |
| And no, there was no such meeting. We do not even have to give a | |
| warrant to enter a state, as when speaking of warrants the | |
| Constitution deals with the individual only, not the states. In | |
| the case of Foti, they didn't even set foot on his property. | |
| And it is not the priority of my administration to give time | |
| frames to criminal states who don't have the common sense to | |
| obey the law. If they had felt that a law impeded on their | |
| rights, they should have done things the legal way and challenge | |
| it in the | |
| Supreme Court. We came near private property, but did not | |
| trespass upon it. Therefore, the burden does not lie with us, | |
| but you." | |

| "We have a Supreme Court. Seems they are on an extended break." | |
| The Baroness laughed lightly. | |
| So no warrant is needed are you saying? | |
| So a state has no right in the matter? No chance to either to | |
| accept and support or deny a request for Confederal agents to | |
| waltz into any state they like? So At any time without no | |
| warning or asking assistance of that state due to the | |
| Constitution only falling under citizens?" "So a Turkdurken | |
| housewife could be baking bread in her kitchen and be dragged | |
| off without a word? Or a Bamovian Farmer out milking his cows? | |
| And neither could defend themselves unless they be labelled a | |
| criminal? | |
| "What in particular was this citizens confederal crime? Sources | |
| close to home suggest it was NOT the individual but the state | |
| the NCSA was challenging. | |
| "You yourself said you were not aware of the incident until | |
| AFTER the incident had begun. How can you be so sure the | |
| Confderal agents did not trespass on this citizens property. And | |
| he had to defend himself? | |
| "Anyone else wish to ask questions about the inconsistencies? " | |
| Baroness Honey Baroda shook her head in disbelief at what she | |
| was hearing. | |

| "In fact it was the Colombian representative that stated that | |
| the Confederate agents came near the property, and that was why | |
| they were shot at. Not because they set foot on his property, | |
| but because they came near it on the road. They were a convoy. A | |
| rogue state, one that breaks the Supreme Laws of the land, has | |
| no say in the matter. Order must be restored. I reiterate that | |
| Colombia is a rogue, noncompliant state. Warrants are needed for | |
| individuals but not states. Foti had no need of defending | |
| himself. He was not shot at or even payed attention to by the | |
| Confederate agents. He instigated the conflict. His only crime | |
| was firing on the agents that meant him in particular no harm | |
| and we're not raiding his property, simply passing by on the | |
| road near it. And you are right, the NCSA is in conflict with | |
| Confederate Colombia. If you have any further questions, please | |
| direct them to Secretary Dawning." | |

| The Secretary of Defense, Albert Dawning, stood up sharply, and | |
| looked around the room. | |
| "If I may say so... | |
| CBI agents must obtain a warrant to sieze, search, and arrest, | |
| unless probable cause is available. Those CBI agents, however, | |
| do NOT need a warrant to enter a state. That goes against the | |
| constitution, which says that each state must not deny entrance | |
| without probable cause. What 'probable' cause was there for any | |
| state to deny them entrance? There was no war between the NCSA | |
| and Columbia until now. | |
| "On the subject of Foti, you will delve into small things. Foti | |
| shot at an Agent who was taking a piss on the side of the road. | |
| Since when did taking a piss on the side of the road constitute | |
| trespassing? Or do you, Baroness, simply wish to elevate things | |
| to please your ego? After the shooting, five agents approached | |
| the man, who was now surrounded by some soldiers, and were | |
| ordered by James Rider to arrest the man. Probable cause, you | |
| see. You do not just ignore getting shot at, and attempting to | |
| murder a Confederal agent is highly illegal. A confederal | |
| offense. | |
| "After this it gets sketchy, as only small visual and oral | |
| records exist. James Rider, and multiple others, reported that | |
| the agents advanced to arrest him, and told him and the soldiers | |
| that he was going to be under arrest for assaulting and | |
| attempting to murder a confederal agent. Upon doing so, the | |
| soldiers raised their guns and attempted to stop them by saying | |
| that this was the problem of the state, not confederal agents. | |
| The agents, in turn, responded by ordering them to move, and | |
| raised their guns. In less than 30 seconds after that, all five | |
| agents lay dead after the soldiers shot them. It was the | |
| soldiers, who I believe are now dead, who started the fight. | |
| "Knowing the Baroness, I excpect her to go on a rant about her | |
| warped conclusions of the Constitution, and do the thing she | |
| does best: Blame others for hers or her ally's actions. You, | |
| Baroness, gave up independence when you joined. That was even | |
| stated in the constitution. You gave Congres, the Supreme Court, | |
| and the Executive branch the power to make laws, to enforce | |
| those laws, and to check and deliver those laws, following the | |
| constitution. Is it against a person's rights that when he | |
| breaks a law he gets arrested? No? But because of a dependent | |
| state who decides to illegally nullify a law, the leader can't | |
| get investigated for treason? Your state is not independent. It | |
| is not completely sovereign, either. | |
| "Sure, your state can make its own laws, it's own military, it's | |
| own taxes, but you gave power to the Government. And you can't | |
| take it back. Not without editing the constitution, or making | |
| the appropriate changes and laws in Congress." | |

| "If I may say add something Mr. Secretary," Representative | |
| Graham began, standing up from his seat. "Governor Preston, as | |
| far as I have been informed, is being treated as a guest in the | |
| President's own home. He is being provided for with the utmost | |
| care, he is however under armed guard, and we have reasons to | |
| detain him as he allegedly threatened one of our Captains with a | |
| pistol upon confrontation. We will release him to Confederal | |
| Jurisdiction, along with his guards who have been classified as | |
| POWs. You have my word, as well as the President's, that he will | |
| be looked after with the best of care we can provide." He paused | |
| cleared his throat and began again. "We hold no ill will to | |
| Columbia or any other of the Separatists we are facing, we would | |
| gladly accept diplomacy to resume between the renegade States | |
| and the Confederacy. Until then we will protect and arm | |
| ourselves against this very real and pressing threat." | |

| "Madame madame" an intern of Baroness Honey Baroda barrelled | |
| into the Congress chambers, a shocked pale look on his face. A | |
| mobile phone in his right hand . He scanned the Representatives | |
| until he found his mistress. | |
| "What is is" she demanded "Can't you see we are in session- this | |
| better.." | |
| "Baroness please," he lifted his left hand urging her to stop | |
| talking a feat that was not always possible. "West Phoenicia has | |
| been attacked" He motioned the phone to her, its the Deputy | |
| Prime Minister. Sparta with no warning has attacked one of our | |
| city states. " | |
| Baroness Honey Baroda waved her fan in a rapid motion. Had it | |
| just got hot in the chambers. She grabbed the phone as those in | |
| the Congress looked on... | |
| While the conversation could not be heard the Baronesses facial | |
| expressions told the story. Her face transformed from stunned | |
| belief, to confusion finally to anger. She hurled the phone | |
| narrowly missing a Representative. | |
| "Traitor....Traitor she screamed at the top of her lungs | |
| towards the Spartan representative. "Sparta has just unleashed | |
| an unwarranted attack on our sovereign nation" she cried to all | |
| those near her. | |
| She pointed her right index finger with a ruby ring on it at the | |
| Spartan Representative " A bounty of $20 million on your bastard | |
| kings head." | |
| With that the Baroness fainted. | |

| "Well, I believe my state has done us a favor. My state has | |
| announced they received reports that West Phoenicia was | |
| beginning to turn UCA or they already did. My King took actions | |
| against this and did the nation a favor." | |
