| Message | The UP feels that it is ludicrous that extradition is forbidden for every case. The right to extradite criminals is an important one for maintaining international relations as well as having the ability to call on other nations to send offending criminals to our nation for trial. Also, in times of great emergency, local government should be able to enforce curfews to allow for maintainance of order and for the safety of its citizens This bill will remain in debate for 6 months (ooc 24 hours) before moving to a vote |
