XTara: We're sitting beside an ex-convict. Doesn't that bother you, Travis?
Travis: Imperial officers don't get involved with local politics.
Tara: ... theft and murder aren't politics.
Travis: Tara, the local government can't run an honest election, the police never arrest anyone above their pay grade, and Thorn's gangsters are how most of the city gets basic necessities. When corruption and bad laws make everyone a criminal, then yes, crime is politics. Your ex-con could have been a decent guy if he'd been given a chance.
Tara: He's a murderer and he's sitting right behind me.
Murdoch: (offscreen) Me, I'd worry more 'bout whether or not I can hear you.
