Message | Article 1 and Article 3- not preparing for war and having no policy on nuclear power? Have you lost your mind? |
Date | 20:42:15, April 18, 2008 CET | From | Federal Republican Party | To | Debating the Decentralization Act of 2563 |
Message | We're preparing for war? |

Message | I'd ask the Senate Warden and the F.I.P. about that-I can't speak for them and their plans to go to war? I thought I was the warmonger so, if they've got an agenda to start a war that you are aware of-I assure you I am not. Party Spokesman, Ron Seigler |

Message | I meant Article 1doesn't make any provisions in case there is a war or we do go to war which nearly happened under the FRP administration. It seems ironic, that it is the same party who is now preparing for us to stop making any form of civil defence, when we were verging on a war and an invasion of our borders when they occupied the presidency. So where do they stand? Martha Wheatdale, PP Leader and Whip |

Message | OOC: It isn't my fault Article 1 is like it is; go look at it. Don't accuse me of in-game "warmongering" or this and that when the actual game does allow for such options when proposing such items. Though I appreciate your clarification. |

Message | Well actually I am sure there are other options to - The Government makes no provision for Civil Defence. We need to have constant practices in place to ensure our borders are protected in case we are ever attacked, you didn't have to choose this one, you could of chosen another more suitable one. Therefore, I cannot accuse you of the game options for legislation (not that I or anyone else did) but I can hold you responsible for the proposal here which you chose yourself and undermines civil defence in our country and what my party disagrees with. My party is against war, but for supporting our country and having measures in place in case the need for war arises and is impossible to stop. Martha Wheatdale, PP Leader/Whip |
