| Message | I think we can all agree that public nudity is not an acceptable practice, so there's no real point to Article 3. The Crown Loyalists also see no reason to give local governments the opertunity to strip citizens of their right to arm themselves in a manner they see fit. |
| Date | 17:25:58, June 28, 2007 CET | From | Progressive Liberal Party of Hulstria | To | Debating the Civil Liberties |
| Message | Why are you decentralising our state? Why are you buildings walls around the influence of the Imperial Diet. A centralised state can act far more better then a decentralised state. Stop tearing our country down. |
