| Message | We are strongly opposed to this recent federalist movement. Allowing local governments to control things leads to inconsitency, and confusion. A citizen can get arrested for doing something in another part of the country, which is perfectly legal and natural in their home area. We believe a single central authority should control things. |
| Date | 00:29:27, August 24, 2007 CET | From | Regional Acronym Political Establishment | To | Debating the Civil Defense Act 2446 |
| Message | Indeed, the government will always listen to the advice of local authorities on shelter placement. The authority should remain with the national government. |
