| Message | Although im not a socialist wantint to nationalise everything, the defence industry should be owned by the state for secturity reasons. Why not tolerate homosexuality in the military, they are human beings as well and they should choose what ever they like. Regarding article 1 , the police should be at least a different thing then the military; our citizens might think that they live in a totalitarian state with soldiers around. Regarding article 4, we cannot sell 'all' arms to countries |
