Bill: An amendment to our legislation concerning the military.
Details
Submitted by[?]: Likaton Coalition of the Willing
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 2464
Description[?]:
| The AMPS feel that there are those who, by there nature, are not suited to such an important role as defence of the realm, and we should not force these weaker individuals into a position where our security as a nation may be compromised. Also, we feel that returning enemy combatants home to be re-equipped and sent out to kill or be killed is, frankly, stupid. Any foreign aggressor should be dealt with by Likaton law, as a terrorist, murderer, or however else we see fit. |
