...yes I have seen their violence, cruelty and greed. However, don't forget that they are 200 thousand years into their existence, they're still just a young species with much to learn. Sometimes they repeat their mistakes and do not see or in some cases refuse to see the mistakes they have made. But even in their darkest histories, I have seen goodness in them. I have seen their capacity for compassion, wisdom, courage, honor, love and truth. In fact, the wisest teachers on this planet have always said, in some way or another, that a true human is all of the four mentioned virtues.
Sadly, like some of our kind, some forgot to keep all of these in their souls. Some of them became monsters...like Megatron. A too large number of these monsters actually ruled in some parts of Earth's chronicles, today a few still do.
That said, many did learn from the mistakes of the past. There are those who even had foresight and strive to enrich this world. Remember, freedom is the right of all sentient beings...more importantly it is a privilege. Many have honored it and honor it today, some have greatly abused it. Few denied it to others, for various atrocious reasons such as prejudice.
Whether freedom is right or privilege no one has the right to take it away from others. Criminals, corrupt leaders, and lords and so forth who abuse the rights of freedom will get what's coming to them. This is a reason why beings like us exist, we may be aliens to this planet but we still have a responsibility. We have to save them from our war. Even though we are strangers, sometimes a stranger can be a great teacher, even a savior. And perhaps soon it will be up to us to remind them where they stand. So they then have more knowledge on how to make progress as a civilization. So they can finally be one with each other...like we once were...before the Decepticons.
When we were peaceful and just, and I promise you...we will be again peaceful and just."
I think I just shed a tear...many manly tears actually.
