| Message | Mr Speaker, It was the whigs who called the initial proposal, which partially legalised fire arms, 'thoroughly sensible'. A bit a u-turn, we suspect. You would have it that our armed police be prohibited by law from being, uh, armed? Or gameskeepers be required to hunt pests and excess with bows and arrows? |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I had forgotten that we had already restricted firearms in this way and presumed - wrongly - that this bill was taking them off the streets. * Embarrassingly signals his members to follow him out of the neigh chamber into the aye one. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker-dude, Right now, only the pigs have guns. They use them to hassle people. The streets would be much safer if nobody had guns. Yield. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The arming of the police is a separate issue to gun ownership completely. We agree that the police should be unarmed and believe that the army should be called in to deal with firearms or public order incidents. This - however - is not the way to go about it. I yield the floor. |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
