-Lana-s Choices | Started by: -Lana- on Mar 17, '10 04:46 |
-Lana- pulls out an old soapbox and lets it drop in front of the crowd. Slowly standing back up, she puts her hands on the small of her back and stretches, letting out a groan as her spine cracks, strained by the heavy load of her pregnant belly. |

Tyrion listened to the ever expanding leader's speech and walked over to shake her hand as she was helped down off the box. |

-Lana- sighs deeply as Tyrion obviously misunderstood completely what she was saying. |

As Lana finishes her speech D_D walks up to her to shake hands with her. It is leaders like you that make me proud to be a woman.I totally agree with you on your decisions .It absolutely is the choice of a leader to be as outspoken or as silent as he/she wishes.And sometimes somethings a better left unsaid and uncommented on. I really look up to you . D_D smiles at Lana and walks away |

"Well said -Lana-. Yes, we all know and respect you as our leader and boss. Fair,Honest and Constant you said. I would slightly disagree there. You bend over backwards to help and advise. Just because you choose to keep your words of wisdom for us and not for the vast majority of those on the streets does not make you less of a leader. As you say it is your choice whether to speak or not. |

Freddie shuffles towards the soapbox in an energetic manner - pumping his bare arms as if to a 'craaaazy beat' |

sneakyrat slowly approaches -Lana- and -Tony-... his right leg has been killing him all morning. Leaning on his cane he managed to climb on the soapbox. Nods to his boss and to tony, he speaks out his mind... |

Lana Ma'am, You of all people do not need my praise or adoration. Yet, I give it to you willingly and completely. You have my undying devotion and I would do anything you ask, whenever you ask. By anything, I mean the most mundane task, or the ultimate sacrifice. You are a wonderful leader and an amazing person. Thank you for everything. |

Cillian takes a drag on his cigarette, then flicks it down to stomp it out. He ponders the words that his Don has spoken. |

In my opinion, yes. I believe leaders should lead, and I believe the streets are vital to this thing of ours. Without them we become a world of criming monkeys doing over post offices, jail breaking and killing our way to the top... mindless thugs, not mafiosi. These are simply two of my core principles that I will not change for anyone or anything. So, it was really very simple, when I was but a young lad, not even on these shores for a day I took a look around at the leaders that were still standing (or recently authed) following the war, and after walking through these streets and checking through some notes from my dear old father I made a decision not to join someone who didn't share those principles. One of the greatest things about this place is the potential for different approaches, we have become more homogenised of late, but there is still scope for individuality. |

Bear sipping his piping hot coffee stumbles upon Lana's announcement and pauses to hear his boss not only displaying but telling of her pride and dedication to the city of New York; yet hearing mumbling of some assholes trying to talk over her saying she's not a worthy leader. Well to all the naysayers, Lana has displayed leadership above and beyond all my expectations so before you place judgement on my gracious leader; step into her shoes for a moment. And for that matter, why don't you talk to a boss in every city and see how they perceive this speech. So until you reach the role of Don I suggest you should hold your tongue and walk on home. Winking at Lana and holding up his cup of coffee in the vast crowd that has gathered to acknowledge her brave and great speech. Then flips his jacket back exposing two .45 's and gives a stare at all the mockers. |

One does not need to hold any position within this thing of ours to form their own opinion. Just because you don't like the opinion doesn't mean it isn't valid. The streets are here for everyone to come up and voice their opinions. A well though out, well said speech should never be held back because someone isn't a 'Don' |

I completely agree Falcon, I was just saying that not being active as the rest in the streets does not make you a lesser leader. Tis all. Honestly I couldn't agree more! Maybe came out a bit wrong. |

no offence mister bear but what it sounded like was you telling all of us who have no leadership experiance to go fuck off. i know that was not what you intended but that was what came out. now what i understand from your clarification was that you think that those of us who belive that you must be active in the streets and buisness district to be a good leader are wrong. and i think that what it boils down to is that yes, on some level a eader does need to keep his or her eye on the streets if only to maintain discapline among their own. but do they need to come out and tell of their exploits or make speeches about what ever it is that people are arguing about? no, not at all. that was the impression i got from your rephrased opinion. now, i will agree that no one who has no leadership experiance should not critasize what a leader does in public. a leader may have his or her own reasons for the way they do things and that is their disicion. also, to critasize a CL or family head in public is disrespecctful and, as recent events have shown, a good way to get shot. |
