Message | Article 1: This article allows for racial discrimination and we believe is a step for the CUF to expand to enforce racial discrimination as sanctioned by the military. Article 2: Our party believes that Jelbania should not force it's citizens into the army, we believe it as a form of slavery to the nation. Article 3: Why must women serve in segregated units? This is a backwards attempt to turn us back from gender equality. We have had women serve alongside men for a long time. |

Message | Segregation of women's only units is necessary to retain discipline and concentration of our troops. We cannot have our units get distracted, because the grenadier happens to be an attractive woman. |
