+1. The overarching plot was never what made mass effect. It was the stories of the characters.
Even the most humongous bastard player always lets garrus win that shooting contest in the citadel.

No kidding. At $2m a year I'd want to at least look young. He's spending all that money to look like a fairly well kept 47 year old.

Have you seen the Syrian Salvation Army? Hardcore Islamists. Maybe better than Assad, maybe not, but still pretty damn worrying

Vietnam, Egypt, Libya, China, Cambodia, Syria, Chile, Afghanistan, Russia/USSR and the reign of terror would seem to go against that. Amongst countless others.

I never said he was. You keep putting words in other's mouths.
All I am saying is that cheering on vigilante justice has historically led to shit like lynchings. Widespread violence has almost never made things better.
And I am a doc in the UK. I am very familiar with our system

Right, and I don't disagree, but it feels a bit like some people are cheering on the reign of terror at the moment.
If everything descends into vigilantism then history would suggest that the "justice" will be indiscriminate, poorly directed and motivated by whatever the prejudice of the day is.

Glad to see this perspective spreading a bit.
Regardless of your views on the deceased, vigilante murders is an absolutely terrible way of addressing societal grievances.

To be frank I rather doubt they want us back right now
As much as I'd love a rejoin movement to take off I don't think it's in the EUs interests to allow countries to exit, have a crack at going it alone and then rejoining if it all goes banana shaped.
