Your co-workers. The homeless youcallously step over on your way to your safe, meaningless jobs. We will notannounce ourselves with bright red uniforms or gloating public pronouncements.We will simply strike. When you see your streets run scarlet with blood, andyour cities aflame, you will know your time is at an end.
"You have taken our homes from us. Our families. Our future. You despoilthe world we were meant to inherit, plundering the resources that rightfullybelong to our children. No more... from this day forward, The Brotherhooddeclares open war on humanity. Its end will not come until the power to governrests in our hands. Or until you are, once and for all, extinct."
