| Message | Prohibiting animal research in no way infringes on any human's rights. We do not understand the CWFP's logic here. |

| Message | Excellent legislation. It has been constantly shown that medical research on animals is almost NO use in determining health effects of products or procedures as applied to humans. As such - there is really no conscienceable reason to continue testing medicatal techniques on animals... and to do so is basically abusing our stewardship. We also consider this unhealthy focus on nuclear power to be destructive to attempts to find other fuel alternatives. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
