A Disturbance in the Force
I've seen scum and villainy in my time from the Outer Rim to the Core Worlds but this stinks worse than a Hutt's garbage compactor. Word on the street or rather the HoloNet is that a real lowlife named Vance Luther Boelter age 57 is wanted for the assassination of former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband. Shot them down like Jawas at a podrace they did. And Senator John Hoffman and his wife? Blasted in their own home. This isn't just your garden variety blaster fight; the officials are callin' it a 'politically motivated assassination'. Makes you wonder what kind of bantha fodder is brewing in this sector.
This is the Way... of a Coward
Boelter's apparently gallivanting around in a cowboy hat – of all the ridiculous disguises – and the FBI's offering 50,000 credits for his capture. That's enough for a decent ship upgrade or maybe a lifetime supply of blue milk. He was last seen in a long sleeve shirt and light pants...probably thinks he's some kind of space cowboy. Now I've dealt with bounty before and I have to say this one sounds slippery. The guy's a director of security patrols at some private outfit so you know he knows how to disappear. Acting as a cop no less. What a joker this guy seriously what a joke.
He's No Good to Me Dead (Yet)
The authorities are saying this Boelter had “some overlap” with Senator Hoffman but nobody knows what that means. Probably just a bar fight over who gets the last spotchka. They found a 'manifesto' in his speeder that names other lawmakers and officials including some pro choice folks. Sounds like this guy's gone full dark side if you ask me. I don't hold with folks getting picked off like womp rats. The guy needs to be brought in. Alive.
The Empire... I Mean Trump Strikes Back
Even the big boss this guy Trump has weighed in saying anyone involved will be prosecuted “to the fullest extent of the law.” Well duh. Attorney General Bondi's on the case too promising no tolerance for the 'horrific violence'. Sounds like someone’s trying to score some easy points with the crowd. Everyone wants a piece of Mando but this is getting tiresome. What I hate even more is dealing with Imp..er other people and their politics.
Stay Home Don't Be a Hero
The State Patrol is telling people to stay away from the protests these “No Kings Day” thingys. 'Out of an abundance of caution,' they say. Translation: They don't want any more bodies dropping faster than credits in a Sabacc game. Good advice if you ask me. Let the law do its thing. Unless you're me. I'm the exception.
I Have Spoken... About These Jokesters
All these lawmakers are running around with their hair on fire condemning the violence. DNC Chair Ken Martin says his 'heart is broken'. Well maybe he should try wearing some beskar armor. I am sorry these people were murdered and it must be handled accordingly. In the end this Boelter character if he's guilty needs to face justice. This is the way. And if he tries to resist? Well I've got a disintegration setting on my Amban phase pulse blaster for a reason.
