| Message | OOC: Stop. Both. Next time you disrespect the legitimacy of a bill proposed by myself or any other party that doesn't perform your same banter, I'm personally calling you on it for what will hopefully be a final strike. You've already been warned, so now you may instead consider yourself at maximum risk. |

| Message | OOC: You say that I'm warned, but I was banned without warning last time. I'm no more at maximum risk now than I was then. Of course, 'disrespecting the legitimacy of bills' is a rule that is applied selectively by the divine right exercised by the moderation team (as has been proven in the case of Bigfoot vs The United States of Particracy), so in conclusion: Wordmaster. |

| Message | His call was IN CHARACTER. The Free Ingallis party firmly believe that Tourists suck, and are confident in their view that Gatorade is better. |

Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem." - Howard Zinn |
