| Message | No. This bill will only turn our glorious nation to the imperialistic ways of the capitalists. War is never the answer. Its sad to see so many MP's jump to this bill in this hour of peace. Think of the horrors those kind of weapons or in deed any kind of weapons bring to our glorious nation. We have to stand against this horrible way. This bill is indeed a turn for the worse for our country. Peace is the only way for our nation and is the only way forward. Do not support this bill for it will turn our backs on humanity itself. |

| Message | They are just tools to guarantee the security of our homeland. Would you deny the right of our motherland to defend itself? |
| Date | 19:50:38, October 21, 2007 CET | From | Dorvik Socialist Party | To | Debating the The New Republical Mind Omnibus (Part III) |
| Message | Those weapons you are promoting are just too deadly for our great country to use. We don't need that to win a war, or defend ourselves successfully. Also, we don't want the companies to own defence because we can't simply put other people lives into their hands. There are limits to privatization. |
