Message | This is a rather sensible policy, 100% of the military's resources should be focused on defence and national security not policing. Prolonged exposure to the military throughout Lodamun when not required could also lead to some extent of social unrest. |
Date | 02:39:48, September 19, 2007 CET | From | Independent Republican Party | To | Debating the Civilian Controlled Police Force Act |
Message | We would prefer that the military be allowed to work with the police in times of emergency. This would establish marshal law out of pure neccessity. |
