| Message | If by civil rights, you mean the right to be shot by a criminal, then yes, goodbye. If by civil rights, you mean the right to walk down the street without being accosted by psycopaths armed to teeth, then you are very much mistaken. But then, we figure you're probably just compensating for something. You know, some of our shareholders manufacture pills for that. |

| Message | Although this does make the Peoples Millitia somewhat weaker, we support this bill. Some aspects of our millitia will remain armed though, as they are professionally required to bear arms. However these weapons are never to be carried in public, and are limited to small arms. |
