Vanilla game allows punching of journalists and scientists, but not this guy? No, that's gotta be a mistake. Now you can punch Charles Saracino in the face for his bad opinions.
Updated for compatibility with LE1 Diversification Project 0.5.2.
Punch Charles Saracino
Now you can punch Charles Saracino! In the vanilla game, after Charles Saracino asks for you to endorse his political campaign, Shepard can agree, or refuse politely, but can't punch him in the face. This mod rectifies this travesty and allows Shepard to violently reject Saracino's request. The option does not appear if you agree to vote for him as a candidate.
