| Message | Absolutely not. The safety of our country and our people is paramount - the rights of visitors to have a non-invasive security check comes secondary to this. This legislation places the convenience of foreigners above the safety and security of our own people and country - do the proponents so despise their own country that they would deliberately loosen protections against terrorism and other things of that nature? That they would deliberately put our people at risk, for no other plausible reason than to make visitors more comfortable? It's simple - the Reform Party will pledge to protect this country and its people at all costs. If that means having invasive security checks for visitors to this country, then so be it. If that means tough border control, so be it. In this particular circumstance, the means are certainly justified by the ends. |

| Message | If anybody tries an act of terrorism, we kill them. We don't need to punish the innocent for what they might do in hopes of catching the guilty for what they likely will do regardless of our attempts. |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
