| Message | Perhaps we should just renounce our military all together hmm? |

| Message | Malivia Left supports all sections of this proposal, especially articles 3 and 6. In response to the National Anti-Communist Front, if you wish to abolish the entire military, perhaps you should propose that yourself, because the proposal from the Socialist Democrat Party does not even go near renouncing the entire military of Malivia. It simply contends that nuclear, biological and chemical weaponry should not be bought or used in warfare. Perhaps the NACF should get reading glasses so that they are able to understand what a proposal stands for before disregarding them. |
