Save the black - Yembo in crisis

The friends of the black have teamed up with black-peace and black-watch and are sending direct action groups into the Yembo system with the aim of disrupting the supply of metals to the station.

A black-watch spokesman said in an interview that the black is rapidly being overrun by human expansion and this latest expansion project by the explorers association must be stopped.
Although both black-watch and friends of the black are generally seen as benign campaign groups they are becomming more and more aggressive in there 'campaigning' and in recent weeks have started to follow the lead of the ironically named black-peace in their methods.

Whilst Black-watch have stated that they are a peacefull campaign group and are merely engaging in port blocking activity,
Black-peace claim to have already turned around a number of supply frigates and although they deny any direct violence it is claimed that several that refused to leave the system have been destroyed.

So far Yembo system security have proven ineffective against the campaigners who seem to be surprisingly well funded and equiped.

The friends of the black have put out a call for anyone concerned, to join in their efforts to stop the supply of metals to the system and it seems that many environmentalist are indeed taking up the call.

Since the call went out last week for haulers to supply metals in what the explorers association has oddly described as a 'community goal' many traders have flocked to the system but due to the lack of security the place has become a magnet for Pirates, freebooters and crazy craft.

A spokesman for Yembo security said that their manpower was already over stretched and made a plea to the Bounty Hunting fraternity to step in. However a representative of the Bounty hunters association has claimed that whilst rampant piracy was being conducted, the Yembo authority's policy of allowing any Pirate to easily clear his wanted status means that ther is no real incentive for the bounty hunter community to help out.

One despondent Bounty hunter even went so far as to claim that hunting pirates was so hit and miss, and paid so poorly that he often has to do a spot of piracy himself just to make ends meet !

Time will tell but it seems that the security of the Yembo system is rapidly spiraling towards a state of anarchy.

Update

Major Miles Havoc commander of the Naddoddur security services is reported as stating that the worsening security situation in the Yembo system has made the system a magnet for all manner of Anarchists and Freebooters who its seems are shooting anything in sight and treating innocent trade ships as little more than 'target practice' its not quite clear if Major Havoc was referring solely to the campaign groups trying to disrupt the flow of metals into the system but one thing for sure is that his men seem ill equipped for the challenge, how can a single stations complement of vipers protect the entire system from what appears to be literally hundreds of demonstrators, agitators, and freebooters. not to mention the hordes of pirates descending on the system looking for easy pickings....
