You can (and should) refuse to pay if you're sure you're able to go through. To that effect, you'll have to either:

- Use a Stealth Generator

- Fly a resilient ship. The Rhino is extremely good at it. With a booster on, there's no chance the pirates will destroy it.

As for your side question, the answer is yes. The pirates will attack you when you come out of the station. If you're traveling to a distant system and thus loading up your Khador drive, they won't be able to land much hits (and don't forget that your ship is automatically repaired each time it docks).

Leaving Loma and entering the system again resets pirates hostility towards you. They will offer you with the usual choice.
