| Date | 15:19:31, January 18, 2008 CET | From | Rightist Party | To | Debating the Ratification of the Death Penalty Treaty. |
| Message | We totally oppose this proposal. Terrorists and genocidal maniacs deserved to be eliminated from the gene pool. They deserve to suffer the same treatment that they put their victims through. Opposed. |
| Date | 16:11:53, January 18, 2008 CET | From | Judicial Union Party | To | Debating the Ratification of the Death Penalty Treaty. |
| Message | We entirely support this. The death penalty is a throwback of mediaeval times, before human rights were given a thought. All people deserve the right to life. |

| Date | 21:36:27, January 18, 2008 CET | From | Greenish Liberal Democratic Socialists | To | Debating the Ratification of the Death Penalty Treaty. |
| Message | We opposed the death penalty but we don't think a 2/3 majority can be found to support this treaty we're in doubt even if we would support this. |
| Date | 22:40:12, January 18, 2008 CET | From | Judicial Union Party | To | Debating the Ratification of the Death Penalty Treaty. |
| Message | No person deserves to be put to death. It is hypocritical of the state to say "no, you may not murder people" when the state does that very thing. |
