| Message | The fact you seem to indicate that you work for freedom of humanity makes me a bit puzzled over this proposal. How can you support abortion over the ENTIRE course of pregnancy?!? |

| Message | How can you throw out such DRAMATIC sensationalism without providing any possible reasoning. An unborn child is a symbiote. Dependant on it's mother. Essentially, a parasite. What makes you think forcing a woman to carry inside her OWN body, something she does not want, is the right thing to do ? |

| Message | We support this bill and believe that abortion is appropriate up until the age of three, though it is more accurately called infanticide at that point. The most effective type of post-birth abortions is to place the skull into a vice and compress it till it cracks and then suck out the brains with a shop vac. |

| Message | We agree with the National Objectivist paryy in theory, though not in methodology. |

| Message | If she didnt want the baby she could have either used protection, or recieved an abortion within the current time frame. |

| 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. |
