[Kurt is usually pretty composed when he posts on the network, but not this time. He looks frantic, exhausted and frankly ill. His head is in his hands, his fingers gripping his usually impeccably-styled hair as he speaks without looking at the camera.]

All of you, please.

Please don't do this. I'm begging you. There has to be something else, there--there just has to be.

[In case it isn't clear what he's talking about... :c]

We can keep trying.

[momchester]

We've been trying for almost three years. Look where we've come. They're hunting us like animals, and nobody cares. This isn't progress. There will never be progress as long as they keep us quiet.

[showbizpanache]

And what on Earth makes you think this is going to change anything? If anything it will incite them! You know they twist things around, Ms. Mary-- They'll do it again, and it won't be called hunting anymore. It'll be called executing the criminals.

[momchester]

Then what else can we do, Kurt? Press charges? That worked. Expose them? Sure, that worked.

[showbizpanache]

We're still pressing charges. It takes time-- But I believe in us, in our strength as a group. If enough of us speak out, we can stop this!

But hurting them-- They'll never listen to us if we do that. It'll create an endless cycle of violence.

[momchester]

You don't know it'll ever work. Have the cops even taken our report off the shelf they shoved it on? Not from where I'm sitting.

They refuse to listen to us. There's no way to shut him down right away without this.

[He realizes that there's no changing her mind, and seems defeated.]

They'll go after you, Ms. Mary. You'll be the first on their list.

[momchester]

[If a Newcomer informs. "If"? There is no if.]

I know.

Let them arrest me. I know what I'll say. This time they'll hear me.

[showbizpanache]

You don't know if that's all they'll do.

[He's crying again.]

Just please don't do this. Please.

[momchester]

Kurt... I can't sit down and let it happen again.

[showbizpanache]

No one is saying you should!

It's just-- There has to be another way!
