| Message | Freedom of expression is an important right. Part of this is the freedom not to express oneself. Forcing children to sing the national anthem is an unnecessary invasion of their rights. |

| Message | You know how many times this will get changed depending on the coalitions? I can tell you now that the FLF will oppose it. GLDS probably will approve it because it is better than what we have now. The other two parties will probably vote against this and now this has been defeated. You do not have the votes right now. I suggest you wait on this and see how the elections go or if one of the parties that supported the current act CTE. I doubt it but one never knows around here. |

This is in order to give other players a chance to query the proposed changes, if they wish to do so. Moderation may be approached for advice on a proposed change, but any advice proffered should always be understood under the provisio that no final decision will be made until at least 48 hours after the request has been formally submitted for approval. |
