Why not allow squads to conduct raids to assassinate political leaders?
Don't want to wait eight years to replace the current president? Raid the white house, assassinate him, and the vice-president takes over.
Don't want to wait forty years for a justice to step down? Raid the Supreme Court, and put him out of your misery.
Of course, after the first succesful raid on a location, subsequent raids become far more difficult.

Good idea.

Certainly gives a use to the vice president... I've actually had an Elite Liberal VP when I had a moderate-or-something President.
Support.

I wonder what people would think about LCS then... I mean, shooting back at guards during protest raids to nuclear plants and news stations is one thing, but raiding with assassination in mind? Public simply can't be made to look favorably upon this. They were the ones who elected these people, after all.
Still, hiring someone else to do the job, or sending some of your own men to do it and then claim that they are renegades... that might be appropriate.

Well regardless of what the society thinks of you, if the conservative president is DEAD then that's a good thing. Is it possible to win the game even if public opinion is 0? I don't think it is currently, maybe if we could kill off some politickers...

Maybe we can find a use for all those masks; the public won't know you did it if they don't recognize you.
Although it wouldn't take much of a guess. =)
Edit: Maybe make it so anything left behind gives you away. If one of your guys dies and nobody can carry the body, they'll know it was you. Or even worse; if somebody from your squad bleeds on the floor and is currently wanted, they'll be able to test the blood and know it was somebody from the LCS. You would have to either not get hit or use people the public knows nothing about (low juice, perhaps?)

I think this would be a great idea, but it should come with a major popularity hit. This would be great, you could speed up the process by getting rid of the right people, but at the same time you'd have to work hard to overcome the negative press it would give you.
-
Popularity hit should be heavily dependent on the public opinion of the assassinated person. A 4 % liked president should make everyone love you, but a 75% liked and reelected president would make everyone hate you.

Add in a Guy Fawkes mask and I'll be a happy man. 8)
