| Message | We support this measure. In fact, we would like to go further in diminishing the justice department's ability to monitor citizens. |

| Message | The IPE isn't shure about this one. The idea isn't evil, but you can't force anything if people don't want to talk, they won't say anything, unless u use torture... |

| Message | Exactly. The individual's liberty to divulge or withhold information is the principle at work- a principle that we support. |

| Message | No, we won't. But imagine, a dictatorial regime takes over power, like the CAC or the BLP... they will use it to track every anti-communist. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
