Message | The previous bill was mistakenly submitted to the floor with no actual legislation. If you favor abolishing the death penalty, you should vote for this bill. I urge all parties to come together to abolish this outdated practice. I remind them that Alorians favor abolition by a wide margin. |
Date | 03:30:51, August 17, 2007 CET | From | Industrialist Party of Aloria | To | Debating the Bill to Abolish the Death Penalty |
Message | We will support this fully. As an old wise man said: "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." This will just make us all blind with hate. Murderers are humans too, and human life is too precious to take away, no matter how twisted the human may be. |

Random fact: Cultural Protocols bills must provide descriptions of the cultures, languages and religions which would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (eg. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
