| Message | Why are you trying to limit our nations military power? Why should we wait for other nations to use these weapons on our troops or civilian population before using them ourselves? |

| Message | goon (gūn) pronunciation n. Slang. 1. A thug hired to intimidate or harm opponents. 2. A stupid or oafish person. I was referring to the first definition. Though it's not quite what I meant, maybe I should consult this thesaurus thingy more :) I meant we play by the rules, human rights conventions, etc. |

| Message | We don't believe that we should be constrained by your irrelevant "rules". If our country is under threat we should use any means at our disposal to counter and destroy such threat. OOC: And I am a goon |

| Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
