"My life has been spent in servitude of my homeland. I have bled for it, and I have seen atrocities that would turn most people's hair white during my servitude. But I will serve it until I die. I will work to make it better, to make it a shining beacon in a dim, corrupt world. That is patriotism. Being a patriot is speaking out when your country is wrong, not supporting it even when it fails to protect those it is sworn to protect. One who would do such a thing is not a patriot, but a traitor."

"What, run off and join a punk rock skateboard anarcho-whatever band because advertisers told me to? No, that would be stupid."
"Wow, your generation is even more jaded to advertising than mine is."
"They teach us to take advertisements apart in school. The so-called 'revolutionary' in the ads is supposed to be transgressive and avant-garde, but he doesn't actually stand for anything. He's all style and no substance. ...I mean, that, and it's like they said, once a good idea takes root, it becomes the dominant paradigm and is no longer revolutionary. Like firearms."
"This is from your meme class, isn't it..."

"It is remarkable how these supposedly 'international' bodies are so ill-informed, nobody here is oppressed, indeed there is no government to oppress us, it is merely that you are enslaved and wish all to be equally enslaved to thee. If you want to wield power over others, go ahead, take the Citizenship Test and join the Seventh Sector, if you think you don't need the government-again, go ahead, go into the swamps and live with the tribals, there are literally areas of Greater Mackonia the government has no records on since the 17th century. I am free, I don't need some idiot to "be in touch" with me or a scrap of paper to be violated whenever its convenient for my supposedly free government to do so."

"Welcome to my shores, the distressed and downtrodden; bless the hour in which thou didst see my verdant fields, my fair navigable rivers, and my many green mountains. If thou wilt work, I have bread for thee; if thou wilt be honest, sober, and industrious, I have greater rewards to confer on thee: ease and independence. I will give thee fields to feed and clothe thee, a comfortable fireside to sit by, and tell thy children by what means thou hast prospered; and a decent bed to repose on. I shall endow thee beside with the immunities of a Freeman. If thou wilt carefully educate thy children, teach them gratitude to Freedom, and reverence to that government, the philanthropic government, which has collected here so many men and made them happy. I will also provide for thy progeny; and to every good man this ought to be the most holy, the most powerful, the most earnest wish he can possibly form, as well as the most consolatory prospect when he dies. Go thou and work and till; thou shalt prosper, provided thou be just, grateful, and industrious"

"There is a wave of optimism and new faith in politics sweeping Britain...I don't like it, it won't do and has got to stop this instant. Jeremy Corbyn is not ''a new kind of politics'', in fact he is neigh identical to David Cameron, and he certainly won't change anything. So long as Mr Corbyn is at home in the intellectual void of emotivist moralism he is brethren to the same homologous series as every other vapid, spineless, abortion of folly to run this country. Just look at his speeches "a social europe", "community", "kindness", "fairness", these are the kinds of empty air which have flown from the mouths of our subhuman elite for the past century, all across Britain we're seeing the stupid, fat and humourless continue their march to total societal degeneracy, against "the Westminster bubble". Oh how if rage were lesser I would laugh at the misled fools who dare pretend they offer or die for "a new kind of politics". The fact of the matter is this, in Democracy's dying days we are seeing its hideous perfection-there is no rational action or debate in politics anymore because there is no longer serious political contestation, politics today is just a battle over who can mimic the blind feelings of the social swarm.

A tired parade of catch-phrases and soundbites, showmanship over statesmanship. They may perform different variations, but they are all alike in the only substance which matters, that of ideas. Example gratia: Cameron says we have a 'moral duty' to stamp out terrorism, Corbyn says 'its the right thing' to negotiate with terrorists. Not one has shown how either things will bring benefit to this country. Its not even that dear Mr Corbyn can't change anything...he's metaphysically incapable of doing so, he is verily not the antithesis but the epitome of Modern British politics, the last incarnation of Democratic Materialism, a senseless carnival of barefaced appeals to collective selfishness and public Wahabbism."

"No, no. I'm not a monster. I do this for my family. My baby loves her daddy. You're the terrorist here." -Lamar Henkel, CVRA operator, interrogating a Confederate associate with a circular saw and car battery

"Mmm, there's many pluses to using a small-caliber handgun like the Ruger I always had. They're quieter, they're typically smaller, have less recoil, they're easier to aim quickly, you can have more rounds in a magazine... but my favorite part, the best part of all is when you shoot a terrorist right in his pelvic girdle, flooring him no matter what he's on or how determined he is to keep going, and he just sits there screaming, cursing, either begging for his life or crying about how the proletariat will end our regime. Rarely, unless you shoot them in the eye, does a .22 immediately kill your opponent. It usually takes another shot. But I fucking love hearing Commies and anarchists screaming as they wait to die. It's the most soothing, loving noise I've ever heard. I love watching their eyes move up and down the barrel, staring straight at the muzzle before I would end their miserable life. I wish, I wish that I could somehow make that sound for my little girl when I hold her in my arms. I wish I could sing it for my beautiful wife. I wish the whole fucking world will one day experience it." -Drake Lance, former CVRA operative, at his debriefing after receiving disciplinary separation from the Commission; CVRA operatives consider the Ruger Mk.III (chambered in .22LR) to be one of their signature weapons, along with an assortment of other subcompact handguns

"Did you fuckers ever think about us? Did you ever think, for a moment, that having us constantly murder the 'enemies of Fascism' might cause us harm? I've killed more people than I thought a person could before I joined the Commission, yet I still remember the days where I never thought I'd take a human life. I thought it'd change when I had a daughter, but you insisted and insisted, and then you all wondered how a nut like me could've made it to such a selective job. PEOPLE AREN'T MEANT TO KILL PEOPLE. You bastards never told me we were an army of assassins. You still tell me, to my face, that the Commission isn't. That's all I did for you sick fucks. I paid my life for you, and all I have to show for it is this padded cell you've given me." -Drake Lance, former CVRA operative, after semi-successful (yet ongoing) treatment

"The tails are an annoying side-effect of an otherwise successful project. They are faster, stronger, more agile, see better in the dark, move more quietly, have better balance, I could go on but you will find if you study the combat trials they are more than sufficient."
