| Message | WE make YOU sick? You will defend animals life but as soon as it comes to human beings you are anti-life, and don't mind having it legal to murder innocent unborn children. You absolutely disgust me. |

| Message | OOC: "You absolutely disgust me"? Just to be clear, who is the 'you' here, and who is the 'me'? We really need to get this sorted out - I don't mind in-character conflict, but out-of-charcter stuff.... it's just not allowed. IC: The Sturm und Drang Partei do defend animal life, this is true. But we are not anti-life with regard to human beings. We have opposed death penalties, are one of the FEW powers to consistently resist militarism, access-to-weapons, and warfare... are pro-population expansion, and actually focus on increasing the QUALITY of life, rather than just the quantity. We are, perhaps, the only truly pro-life party in the nation. On the other hand, we don't have any problems with allowing a woman to have control over her uterus, and do not consider a blob of jelly to be a citizen. So - abortion is not a 'pro-life' issue, for us. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
