| Message | While we can agree to a general loosening of regulations in arms sales, we feel this is going to bit too far. We would agree to selling openly to allies or even selling all conventional weapons systems, perhaps, but not ALL weapons to ANYONE. We don't feel that we should be selling our bioweapons to the Holy Luthori Empire, for instance. |
