Message | CP supports the first article (developing and storing) but only sees a necessity to change the second article (using it) during war time. CP will support the bill. If this bill does pass, it will put to vote to reverse the second article only. |

Message | You do realize that admitting your problem isn't the only step to recovery, right? I still think that for positioning purposes only, you need to stop lying. You aren't a pacifist. You're an empire-building warmonger. |

Message | OOC: It's not for positioning, it's for visibility. Since visibility goes down if there's never any bills on a topic, I have to make bills on any of my positions that go down in visibility. As for being a warmonger, well I've never started a war, except the civil war, but that was to add some excitement, all the wars we've been in or come close to being in have been the result of other nations threatening us. |
Date | 08:18:39, June 19, 2008 CET | From | Sekowan Independent Party | To | Debating the DSP.195.2593 |
Message | The Sekowan Independant Party does not believe that chemical weapons should be used in any measure. These weapons cause far too much damage on a long-term scale, and represent a lack of ethical reasoning. |
Date | 09:36:38, June 19, 2008 CET | From | Normand Pluralist Party | To | Debating the DSP.195.2593 |
Message | The bills most helpful for visibility are the bills which best divide the Folkstmma. |

Message | OOC: If I may, isn't Independent Party an oxymoron? |
Date | 07:54:43, June 20, 2008 CET | From | Sekowan Independent Party | To | Debating the DSP.195.2593 |
Message | OOC: It kind of is, but if you take it more abstractly it makes more sense, I think. The party is independent of "normal" party rules, it doesn't conform as much to older ideals. At least, that's my intention for the name... |

Message | OOC: Gotcha. That works. |
