| Message | We think biological and chemical weapons are disgusting and inhumane. We would never vote in favor of the use of nuclear, chemical, or biological weaponry in warfare. We think the current value is the one we need. |
| Date | 07:57:02, April 07, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Ordo Malleus (COM) | To | Debating the Chemical or biological weapons reform (RRP) |
| Message | We do not seek war with another but there are times when war is justified to protect ourselves or another who cannot protect themselves. Sometimes, in those situations, it is necessary to start and finish war with minimum casualties for Telamon and for those Telamon protects. In those instances biological and chemical weaponry can accomplish the job without unduly endangering our sons and daughters. -Roger Evars, COM Party Leader |

| Message | We find the proposal that Telamon should reserve the right to use biological or chemical weapons in acts of aggression to be particularly distasteful, as we believe that would be the only reason to lift the current policy. James Lott Chairman Democratic Capitalist Delegation |

| Message | Wisely said Mr Evars. Vojislav Krkljus Chairman of the RRP |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
