| Message | Strange that an Anarchist would try to BAN something... |
| Date | 20:45:00, December 12, 2007 CET | From | Fascist Zealotry League | To | Debating the Anarchist Freedom Act |
| Message | They're not real anarchists. Change the "Free" to "Faux" in their name and then it'll be more accurate. |
| Date | 22:17:56, December 12, 2007 CET | From | Dranian Free Anarchist Faction | To | Debating the Anarchist Freedom Act |
| Message | Ban? We proposed the abortion change to make absolutely sure nobody else would vote for this bill. When our bigger initiatives have gotten passed, we'll concern ourselves with abortion. |
| Date | 10:29:45, December 13, 2007 CET | From | Pro Grain Club | To | Debating the Anarchist Freedom Act |
| Message | How do you expect your so called "bigger initiatives" to ever get passed if you put poison pills in your bill to "make sure nobody else would vote for this bill". Clearly petty political point scoring is more important to you than actually changing Dranland for the better.(or worse) |
