Yeah, wasn't there a ruling a while ago that taking sec equipment, particularly (and specifically) batons, considered taking lethals? Like, I can't say I agree with the banned seccie's general demeanor but if every single member of the engineering department attacks a security officer who's arresting their boss for beating the shit out of someone and takes their gear, then that doesn't exactly open them up to a relaxed discussion.CMDR_Gungnir wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 3:44 pm "They didn't do anything wrong, they were just trying to disarm you of your baton and disabler!"
Incredible. Tell me you don't actually play the game without telling me you don't play the game.
For what little it's worth, "has stun equipment like batons" is considered grounds to authorize Lethal Force under Space Law; but Space Law is less policy and more just a Roleplay thing.Valorium wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 11:10 pmYeah, wasn't there a ruling a while ago that taking sec equipment, particularly (and specifically) batons, considered taking lethals?

Man, the right to protest seems pretty non-applicable on a corporate space station and is found literally nowhere in the rules or even space law.• Security disperse the protest and end up arresting protesters; which was unjust in their eyes as they hadn't done any wrongdoing by exercising their right to protest

Yeah something like that is still in space law and I would say it makes senseScreemonster wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 2:03 am I seem to recall the guide to security used to just straight up say "don't take shit from a grey tide" and that it's valid to shoot them all on the spot if a bunch of people try invading the brig
There is little room for retreat when defending the brig.Spacelaw wrote: It is required to order the crowd to disperse, failure to disperse is the crime not the assembly. Any crimes committed during the riot are considered separate offences.
Multiple Hostiles - it can be extremely difficult to detain multiple hostiles. As a last resort if you are being mobbed you may deploy your baton in a harmful manner to thin the crowd. Generally it is better to retreat and regroup than stand your ground.
