Bill: Police Protection Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: National Conservative Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 2492
Description[?]:
| The National Conservative Party has had many phone calls from the Police seeking our stance on police protection. We have acknolwedge their requests for more police protection. Therefore we are asking support from Parties with power to support our moves to allow the police to carry standard firearms. As our population increases the 'non-lethal' weapons that the police hold are not suitable to deal with the demands of the current situation. |

| Message | The Conservatives make much sense - the police should have arms to defend themselves. The army and the police are too different to coexist in the same organization. Armies fight an enemy, police maintain order. If the army becomes the police, the people become the enemy. |
