| Message | The Orange Party believes that introducing said policy would remove a potentially massive distraction from an institution that needs to be as focused as possible. We believe that this is a neutral stance and not necessarily anti-homosexual. |
| Date | 14:41:41, January 20, 2009 CET | From | Kazari Militarist Movement | To | Debating the Don't Ask, Don't Tell |
| Message | We are against this entirely. We in the Kazari movement believe that the ideal soldier doesn't have to be straight, he just has to shoot straight. -Barron Goldwasser Jr. |
| Date | 01:19:43, January 21, 2009 CET | From | National Equality Party | To | Debating the Don't Ask, Don't Tell |
| Message | We agree with the KKM. Soldiers shouldn't be forced to hide their sexuality. If we try to suppress being open, how are we going to progress socially towards being completely unfazed by someone's sexuality? |
