If the rhetoric continues to build, the protests could result in violence. It may be time for someone to talk to the protest leaders to calm them down before someone gets hurt. It's possible that they're already on verge of a riot. What good will words do when actions can get things done faster? Beating the rioters into a pulp is definitely one way of calming them down.

Discarded Picket Sign

Briefing

You find an abandoned picket sign whilst fighting crime. You pick it up and read it over...

The petition sign reads: 'Raise the Wages, or Raze the Docks!' You remember hearing that the local Dockworkers' Union was protesting pay rates and working conditions as of late. Looking into it further, it turns out that the Dockworkers' Union has hired out large groups of Scrapyarders from Cage Consortium to do more of their manual work! While this is all legal, it certainly reeks, given the shady practices in the past by Cage. The wording of this sign looks like the protest is beginning to get rather heated - which will be bad, considering most of the Scrapyarders are former ex-cons!

If the rhetoric continues to build, the protests could result in violence. It may be time for someone to talk to the protest leaders to calm them down before someone gets hurt. It's possible that they're already on verge of a riot. What good will words do when actions can get things done faster? Beating the rioters into a pulp is definitely one way of calming them down.

The Scrapyarder riots have been put to rest, for the moment, thanks to a common enemy found in the Cage Consortium.
