Gunmen Kill Aid Workers in Chicago Ambush

Sidney S. Hawthorne, Alliance News Network

Gunmen killed three members of Jaeto’s Forgotten Daughters Foundation in Chicago (UNAS, Earth) today. The attack has left five others wounded, with one listed in critical condition at Mercy Hospital.

Oi Carvhen (12), Beeyar Cophta (13) and Neb Provich (19) were killed in ­­­Washington Park, a volatile region in the Chicago megalopolis. They were working on the reconstruction of a water treatment facility to send clean water to poorer citizens of the region.

The FDF (which has called the killing “cold-blooded”) began humanitarian efforts in the North Central UNAS shortly after the Reaper War’s end. It has been facing difficulty in the area since Sur’Kesh’s STG leak accused foreign aid workers of acting as “sleeper cells” for the agency. There has been no claim of responsibility for the attack.

You ever wake up from a nice, dreamless sleep and think 'hey, maybe today there'll be some good news'? Nope?

Yeah, me neither.

they killed aid workers.

Aid workers trying to help people. Because of that fucking leak.

Goddamnit.

Children.

Why do they always go for Children?

I'd say the good news are that we still get news.

God damn. Their fucking children. That is never fucking justified. And because of that leak? I mean, I was slightly paranoid, sure, but if I ever meet a salarian I wouldn't kill him/her because of it.

Not to stop any anger over this, because it deserves it.

but I think salarians are considered adults at that age.

...right?

And now it's my turn to say "Fuck you."

Er, yes. Salarians have a much different lifespan than most other species, and reach sexual maturity at around 3 or 4 years old. Granted, 'sexual maturity' means something much different to salarians than it does to other species, but I guarantee you, those salarians were not children. This doesn't make the crime committed any less terrible, but, well, there you go.

Thanks for informing me. Still despicable that that leak once again is causing fucking racial tension.

Fuck you too mister Spiza.

Now, I don't know if you misunderstood my point or something, but it'd be nice to know what I did to deserve this sudden reproductary approach, coming from a salarian of all species?

Well, I don't know about "Mr. Spiza," but your lack of proper punctuation, spelling, and basic elementary school grammar is beginning to draw my ire.

Guys. Guys it's ok. It was just three salarians. They'll be replaced in about a day.

My mistake, the article never specifically mentioned they were salarians (Should have paid more attention to the names). Still, it's a tragedy.

…

There are so many things I want to scream at you people, particularly at Little Miss Bitch Quarian...but there is absolutely no point when she has nothing to worry about that's comparable to the situation. I’ll just leave it at “now you know what I deal with, every day.”

This is why I have NO sympathy for you bastards who just puss out and say it's too difficult to keep going. SUCK IT UP.

My condolences to the families of those volunteers. They're the true heroes, not you "badass mercenaries."

They couldn't have shot, oh, I dunno, the "performance artist" instead? Fucking people jumping at shadows over a document that reads like a cheap spy thriller. Hope somebody returns the favor.

I've always suspected that "leak" was deliberately intended to cause this kind of thing.

Dammit.

God damn these xenophobic idiots, trying to ruin all the work we've accomplished. You'd think people would be a little more willing to cooperate after we were nearly wiped out.

All of this because of rampant paranoia over a supposed "leak".

Condolences to the victims and anyone involved.

Foolish. Foolish and tragic. Those workers were there to aid those who gunned them down.

Not terribly different from what we're facing on Nartin. Xenophobia and self-interest never cease to dissapoint.
