Message | Gentlemen, I come to propose a change from the bald eagle as our national animal. This is an animal of unpredictable and random violence against innocent beings. Instead I would recommend the peregrine falcon; fast yet careful, aggressive yet has restraint; and civilized but brutal when provoked. - Petr Shaposhnikov, Leader, NP |
Date | 21:16:26, May 21, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Party of Solentia | To | Debating the The National Animal Act 2579 |
Message | Investigations today have yielded a scientific explanation for the recent increase of Bald Eagles defecating upon NP buildings. It has been determined that, rather than a case of Bald Eagle vengence upon the NP for attempting to remove them from their place of honor, several of the more rash members of CSPS voting constituencies have taken to the practices of feeding laxatives to Bald Eagles in the general vicinities of NP buildings. Regardless of the cause, the message is clear. CSPS voters will see the Bald Eagle remain the Solentian national animal. |
Date | 03:04:59, May 22, 2008 CET | From | Meritocratic Alliance | To | Debating the The National Animal Act 2579 |
Message | As a member of the Solentian Heritage Coalition, the Front National will vigorously oppose this measure of the Nashies. |
Date | 03:45:54, May 22, 2008 CET | From | Anarcho-Atheist League | To | Debating the The National Animal Act 2579 |
Message | The LSF will oppose this measure should a vote on the matter be brought before the Senate |
Date | 18:42:22, May 22, 2008 CET | From | Nasha Partiya | To | Debating the The National Animal Act 2579 |
Message | I like to think that the SFN have an affectionate nickname for my party. However, I think the CSPS candidate has gone slightly mad, we all know who's the major source of 'defecate' (at least verbal) around here! - Petr Shaposhnikov |
Date | 00:28:35, May 23, 2008 CET | From | Federal Independent Party | To | Debating the The National Animal Act 2579 |
Message | We see little need for this useless change. The Solentian Bald Eagle is most certainly not a creature of violence. I question how the Nasha Partiya figured the Peregrine Falcon is more civil than the Solentian Bald Eagle and how they came to the conclusion that our national animal is "violent".
