| Message | Certain articles are too risky. If 3 and 5 werent there it would be better. However, I wish to form a alliance union with the PCP, and the rest of the bill isnt so bad anyway, I guess this should be the first yes vote for your slightly lunatic idea of freedom. |

| Message | Not patrolling private property? Where do they patrol? No legal aid? No restrictions on extradition? A badly mixed bill. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
| Random quote: "The Revolution needs to progress. We as humans need to evolve into higher beings through better moral virtues. And we can achieve that if we clean ourselves from the immoral. Those who go against the Revolution, go against human progress and must be freed in the most humane way possible. That is why we introduced the guillotine." - Maximus Robertson, former Davostani revolutionary |
