| Message | I cannot support article 1, and article 4 only invade personal privacy. This is why I propose all me bills one at a time, so people can decided whether they support or not on an individual basis. |

| Message | Again, even though you should use "secure" instead of safe, you should have said "will make our borders safer" not: "will make our borders more safe". I am surprised that such illiterate people hold leadership positions in CAM. |
