| Message | We would rather our nation pursue a policy of " Professionals may run licensed fireworks shows, small fireworks are legal to the general public", since leaving it up to state governments will lead to the smuggling of fireworks across state lines, but we will vote for the bill as it stands. |
| Date | 23:56:07, August 23, 2005 CET | From | Sanctaphrax Party | To | Debating the Fireworks Act |
| Message | We agree with the AoFP on this matter, but will vote yes for now, although we hope to see a change in this to the above mentioned instead soon. |
