Line 16:

** I guess to the Skedar, all humans are the same, so why would they concern themselves with something as "trivial" as political correctness??

* It bugs me that [[What Measure Is a Mook|you can kill Datadyne and Area 51 guards with impunity]], but not NSA agents. It makes sense that the NSA guys would be spared because they don't know what Easton is up to and thus are innocents who are just doing their jobs. Fine. Except that I doubt the Datadyne guards know all about their company's evil deeds; most likely, [[Punch Clock Villain|they just think it's involved in making robots or something, have no idea that Cassandra wants to take over the world, and are just keeping criminals from stealing valuable technology]]. Similarly, the Area 51 guards are government employees working to prevent foreign operatives, spies, and terrorists from stealing information and technology that could potentially bring down America.

:: Carrington doesn't seem like such a swell guy when you think about it.

** Initial Vector portrays him as a man at war against [[Data Dyne]] and the [[Mega Corps]], and is fairly jaded, cynical and ruthless. Plus I might be mistaken, but those after Jo I believe were NSA agents with Trent and the snow guards and Presidential security are rank and file US employees. The guards won't go after you when you are face to face with the President, and they'll go off and fight the invading NSA if spared. Area 51 though, that is morally ambiguous.
