| Message | Let's wait after the elections, as you and me might have enough support to get this through after them. |

| Message | Right, there are no plans to bring this to vote before the elections (and, there's not enough time to vote anyway.) Although, I don't expect that SUN, as low-visibility as we still are, will pick up any more seats than the Conservatives will. It's even possible we once again won't get any seats -- building visibility takes time. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. |

| Message | Wow, didn't win any seats, but the majority's even closer this time. Well I'm bringing this bill to vote, seeing as it's been debated before. |

| Message | Hmm, that's weird. Seats haven't been updated? |

| Message | I've been thinking about this. I'd support it if the provision that the current stockpile would be given to Shirtaoku, since it has its own military and has autonomy in military issues so it could keep them, and if we ever needed them all we'd need to do is reverse the law, rather than reversing it and building an entire new stockpile. |

| Message | Ah, so that was before the seats were updated? Yes, that is odd. Presumably the actual execution of the disarmament would be up to the Ministry of Defense. A transfer of the weapons however isn't really what we had in mind. |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
