| Message | Of course this is about discrimination, you are discriminating against a group of people. There is nothing at all immoral about homosexuality. |

| Message | I've always supported this. :D |
| Date | 23:40:10, February 25, 2008 CET | From | Greenish Liberal Democratic Socialists | To | Debating the Military Morality Act 2537 |
| Message | I thought you were avid anti-discrimination.. as suggested by some earlier comments, for example in (but not limited to) the affirmative action bill. |
| Date | 03:37:23, February 26, 2008 CET | From | Rightist Party | To | Debating the Military Morality Act 2537 |
| Message | passed |
| Date | 03:38:07, February 26, 2008 CET | From | Rightist Party | To | Debating the Military Morality Act 2537 |
| Message | I hate affirmative action. It is reverse discrimination. If you notice though, we support women in the military just not in combat roles. |
| Date | 04:16:35, February 26, 2008 CET | From | Judicial Union Party | To | Debating the Military Morality Act 2537 |
| Message | So you are against discrimination when it helps people, but you are for it when it hinders people. That is an interesting view. |
