| Message | We support. I guess you mean it like the Spanish way. Guardia civil vs. Guardia Militar |

| Message | We prefer the current status. The military should not be used for law enforcement purposes unless there are serious emergencies. The military is for killing the enemy, the civilian police are for enforcing the laws. Those two objectives are often done using completely different means. |

| Message | Sometimes the enemy is those whom goes up against the law. And sometimes the lawbreakers are so heavily armed that the police cannot handle it, especially now with the insurgents of Solentia everywhere. |

| Random quote: As for rape, of course, that is a direct consequence of the capitalist system of oppression. Capitalism relies on fuelling division and resentment to sustain itself, and so it sets men against women, race against race and so on. Men rape women because they are being oppressed by capitalism, so they take it out on women. Under Communism, there will be no rape, because there will be a full and natural harmony and equality between the genders. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
