Description[?]:
| Green Labor is committed to a peaceful, but safe, Dorvik. We think now that the Proletariat rebels' attacks have become less constant and violent, we can move on and enjoy peace once again in our nation. While we tackled the Proletariat's violence with more violence, we now hope that peace will prevail. Proletariats, we hope you can take reasonable and responsible action to quell your violence. If not, the Green Labor Party will have no hesitation in making you accountable for your actions. |

| Message | We will not support these measures until the proletariat menace is stamped out in it's entirety. OOC: in any roleplaying situation with the laws that are in place any rioters by now (if there still would be any) would mostly be rotting in jail. |
