Romans,
I am greatly angered at the events occurring within our Senate. I continually stood behind Caesar in my speeches, and after reading his acta, I once again urge each of you to recognize his good intentions. Logic clearly has reached none of the opposition here today, so I shall say it simply. Caesar is not a tyrant! He has the greatest love for Rome of anyone, rivaled only by Marcus Antonius in political matters.
On that note, my anger increases. I have stood behind this man in letters, meetings of the Senate and in my heart. I am astounded at the level of mistrust. Caesar, unaware of his future misdeeds, appointed Brutus as consul, blurring our currently drawn lines of Republican and Caesarian. This "liberator" shouldn't be given anything but a trial. And in what sort of backwards world do we live in that Marc Antony is tried BEFORE murderers? We must act on our beliefs, Romans, and carry out Caesar's acta as planned. Remember the greatness of a unified government. Do not let civil unrest erupt from your misguided judgments and misplaced trials. Trust in your fellow man and dismiss this prideful way of governing.
Gaius Matius
