Message | While the JLSP contains no fans of the current legislation, there is disagreement here regarding article 2. We think a middle ground between the two extremes is neccesary. With regards to article 1, it's not a big issue on our agenda, but we'd be willing to support regulation or compromise with illegalisation. |

Message | Article 1, I could live with, maybe a little toned down. Article 2, nope, no and noooo. Humans take precedent over all other animals. |

Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
