I'm curious where you're getting your info on this "peaceful" branch of the
Humanis policlub. Was it in some sourcebook that I missed? I disagree
with the concept that a militant policlub like the Humanis would allows a
peaceful, racially integrated group to use their name. I especially find
it ironic that a group that wishes to split that races apart has a
multi-racial membership.
Basically, I think that if you're going to call them Humanis, you should
run them like the Humanis. If you're going to run them as something other
than the Humanis, then you should call them something else.
