| Message | I would support all but article 4 about gambling and article 5 about prostitution. While it is a personal freedom, the government should never intervene or endorse these immoral industries. |

| Message | The AAP supports 3/5ths of the FP's bill with attached riders but we do not want to tie up the justice system with minor court cases involving simple possession of marijuana and we have absolutely no opinion on prostitution but we'll support the bill. |
