Message | OOC:Sorry, did you really remove Article 2? I'm quite sure that I was against the positive discrimination law. It should be "The government does not regulate hiring policies." Than we will support. |

Random quote: "John Burroughs has stated that experimental study of animals in captivity is absolutely useless. Their character, their habits, their appetites undergo a complete transformation when torn from their soil in field and forest. With human nature caged in a narrow space, whipped daily into submission, how can we speak of its potentialities?" - Emma Goldman |
