| Message | You communists are a bunch of dumbasses. You're unrealistic, uncaring for the needs of the people, and all of your silly little attempts to supposedly protect people and animals turn out to be horrible failures. You fail to realize that zoos actually protect animals. You fail to understand economics. You also fail to see the effects of an overbearing, bungling bureaucracy. We of the Party of Moderates wonder if you extremists have ever passed the third grade. |

| Message | This bill is absurd and irrelevant. The TCP would like to remind the communist parties that there are far, far more important matters to be adressed in the politics of a nation than who is allowed to own animals - when was the last time the communist coalition proposed a bill in the interests of increasing GDP? |
