Shireroth

I suggest you take the trial seriously, and act with respect. And get someone to represent you for gods sake. You actually have a decent case.

So, please.. PLEASE behave.

When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.


When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.


When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.


When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.

*Yawn* Heard that one before, dude.

We all knew the Social Democrats had it coming, anyway.

[Full disclosure: Mr. Michael Fors, Esq. is the Assistant Arbiter, Imperial Judex for this case as well as the Senior Partner in the law firm in which I work. Therefore, I should not say anything. But Mr. Fors knows me better than that...]

I'm a newbie but, now that I'm a citizen, I guess I have to take the blue and white jacket with the big "U.N" on the back off and get shot at along with everyone else in the realm.

The only thing I'd like to say is that whether Shirerithian or Hanoverian or Morovian (the only three nations of which I am familiar), micronationalism's only real purpose is to allow people to become nations and to develop life-long relationships without regard to the accidents of geography.

We build a community narrative that becomes the context for life-long friendships.

And, beyond that, let's face it. None of us have any money riding on the outcome

I have, as a newcomer, just witnessed what I consider to be a brilliant clusterfu..., well, celestial convergence of law, friendships, rivalries, theology and tradition in the resolution of the Kaiser succession crisis.

Can we, as Shireithians, go two for two with the curious case of Baron Jess Heimer?

And can Baron Jess Heimer accept the outcome?

The Gods are pleased, well, at least mollified, by the verdict. At least the ones that talk to me are.

Senor Zorro tells me he will go and annoy others.
