Message | Article 3 is complete lunacy. Imagine where our fine nation would go: corruption, evolution, etc. People must have the right to complain freely(to a point of course) |
Date | 17:07:06, October 12, 2007 CET | From | Kafuri Socialist Party | To | Debating the Police Reform Act |
Message | Why? What's wrong with evolution? How does giving the police real weaponry increase corruption? What types of weapons the police carry will only make a difference to you if you do something to get the police to shoot at you. |
Date | 17:38:35, October 12, 2007 CET | From | Liberal Urban Party | To | Debating the Police Reform Act |
Message | No, no wait; I deeply apologise. I was referring to Article 1(The police may disperse a group without giving any reason), that's complete lunacy. I support the other 2 articles. |
Date | 21:00:43, October 12, 2007 CET | From | The Kuchifey Liberation Party (KLC) | To | Debating the Police Reform Act |
Message | Military and domestic issues do not mix. Dispersing groups for any reason is inherently corrupt. You get a one hundred percent no from me. |
