| Message | What we have now amounts to a federal right to public sex. I mean, I'm not really opposed to the idea of public sex when it's lithe young people doing it. But I don't think it needs to be a federal right. Public sex will remain legal on the beaches of Sildar, whether we maintain a federal right to it or not. Isn't that what really counts? |

| Message | Now, not to be offensive about the people of Krentori. But their population is known to be aging. And to be totally honest, they've got no business having public sex. You want OLD PEOPLE doing it in public? Well, that's what you've got under current law. Old Krentorians farking out in public. Please, for Bog's sake, let's put a stop to that. |
