Jan 29th-Feb 12th
Chaos and Slaughter in Indianapolis; Mutants rampage through city; Jailbreak occurs
Mass murder and acts of arson has broken out in Indianapolis. The start of killings by the mutant serial killer known as “Father Time” began with the frat attack and then continued with the murder of police officers. This was followed by a jailbreak of mutants in Gary which left twenty police officers dead, and seven wounded and all the mutants in the cell escaped. It is believed that Father Time has met with the Hispanic man responsible for the Stock Market attack whose identity remains unknown. Their female traveling companion has been identified as 20 year old NYU student Alice Simmons. She is said to have no living family, investigators have been combing through her apartment for clues for the past several days. A seven foot tall man with prosthetic limbs has also been sighted with them though his identity remains unknown.
A spate of arson attacks began resulting in over a dozen different buildings being burned all across the city leaving over sixty dead and hundreds injured and homeless. One of the suspects was discovered to police officers in the Indianapolis Police Department itself Officer Michael Green was apprehended but committed suicide before he could be interrogated. It is suspected that he was working with others including Father Time who is believed to have left the city.
Emboldened by his actions copy- cat arsonists and killers began to emerge adding to the chaos and death toll though order has been largely restored since the deployment of the National Guard. Most of the mutant escapee’s have also been recaptured.
Mutant Riots in Florida Crushed; Rick Scott tremendously popular
Mutant riots that broke out in Florida’s major cities including Gainesville, Tallahassee, Tampa, and Miami in the wake of a Christian Identity shooting have been suppressed by force. Governor Rick Scott ordered his once controversial Kappa Team to move in and they quickly and effectively rounded up the most dangerous mutants while putting the rest to flight. The operation proved costly as the mutants resisted and fifty six police officers were killed or injured before the riots were put down. It was also condemned by the Mutant Defense League and the SPLC for its brutality. Nonetheless the ruthless action has earned Governor Rick Scott a massive popularity boost for his decisive action. “I shall not let Florida become another Indiana” he promised “Dangerous elements in our society will be brought to justice and made to account for their crimes.”
Mutants and Christian Identity and Human Defense Alliance engaged in clandestine war
It is the start of what many analysts are calling a covert war inside America. Christian Identity and Human Defense Alliance members who have been systematically targeting mutants are beginning to turn up dead themselves in mutant retaliation attacks. A number of killings of Christian Identity members have occurred throughout the country from New York, Indianapolis, Tallahassee, Gainesville, Baltimore, Boston, Richmond, and Atlanta.
Christian Identity and the Human Defense Alliance have seen their membership skyrocket in recent weeks and are now thought to possess over a million members in all fifty states. Gun sales have similarly skyrocketed and the two organizations are now thought to be cooperating. Mutants have been killed all throughout the Midwest particularly centered in Indiana where visible mutants have been subject to lynching’s but also in Iowa, Illinois, Chicago and parts of the Northeast in New York and South. The full death toll is uncertain but authorities are increasingly concerned over the prospect of a full blown race war. Visible mutants have almost disappeared from the streets as they fear being the target of attacks.
Gang Violence on the Rise in New York
A Tong leader, Chang Kwok along with over twenty other mafia members was gunned down in a hit by the Russian mafia in New York. The brutal slaying likely occurred due to a turf battle between the two rival groups and is expected to lead to war between the Tong and Russian mafia.
A number of brutal slayings have similarly occurred in the inner city as a full scale war has broken out between the streets gangs. The situation is confused and few details are available though authorities are warning residents to stay at home.
Mutant Registration Act passed by Senate; Signed by President Obama
In the wake of the chaos that has broken out throughout the country the Mutant Registration Act passed with strong bipartisan support and quickly went on to be signed into law by President Obama. The only one to oppose it was Senator Bernie Sanders who in a eight hour speech railed against the MRA said “This is the beginning of a dangerous time in America.” The Mutant Defense League and ACLU have already launched a legal challenge but it is not expected to succeed.
The federal government moved with uncharacteristic speed to implement the act and already the first Mutant Registration Center was set up in Washington D.C. The new mutant ID cards are similar to a driver’s license but contain information on a mutant’s power, as well as biometric data, social security number, and address. A mutant is required to carry this at all times when in public and can be stopped by police and asked for it. Failure to provide it will result in several days in jail and a hefty fine. The problem of registering non-visible mutants however has proved to hinder registration efforts. Parents are being encouraged to bring their mutant children in for registration.
Federal Law Revised; Weakens Posse Comitatus; New powers for President
Packaged with the Mutant Registration Act was an amendment to the Insurrection Act:
In addition to the revision to posse comitatus the President also gained the power to un-offically suspend habeus corpus and keep mutants involved in violence detained without trial for an indeterminate period of time. A legal challenge was immediately launched and it is not expected to survive the courts scrutiny, but meanwhile it is being taken full advantage of.
National Guard Deployed in American Cities
For the first time since the Civil Rights movement President Obama ordered that the National Guard be deployed to the most troubled areas and state militia’s were placed under federal control. This included Indianapolis where a state of emergency was declared and a curfew imposed as the National Guard took to the streets arresting. Incidents of mutants being shot on sight also filtered out from the city. Other cities included New York and Washington D.C., Richmond, Baltimore, Chicago, Atlanta and Boston as a precautionary measure, as well as cities throughout Florida including Tallahassee, Gainesville, Tampa, and Miami where the National Guard set up checkpoints on all roads in and out of the city and imposed a curfew in Gainesville and Tallahassee. It is unknown for how long the National Guard will remain deployed.
On a possibly related note President Obama’s approval ratings rose to 59% for the first time since 2008.
