That was my point Timothy, as well, I don't care if you say nothing, but 
RP the silence at least.  I always RP somewhere after I attack someone.  
I didn't my last one because I was caught right after murdering miltia.  
That and there was no one else in the region so it wouldn't have 
mattered much lol.
