| Message | We would prefer 'Only adults are allowed to purchase fireworks' as we do think we need to make the distinction between small and large fireworks. Furthermore we don't believe we need to establish who is a professional and who isn't. Although we could be persuaded if we are convinced this regulation is needed. |
| Date | 22:27:59, October 25, 2009 CET | From | Rutanian Heritage Party | To | Debating the Fireworks Act 2838 |
| Message | We see no reason to arbitrarily transfer authority over what is a fairly trivial issue from local governments to the federal government - this is merely another pretext for the unnecessary centralization and concentration of government power. In any case, we do not see fireworks as an issue that desperately needs attending to. |
| Date | 13:45:57, October 26, 2009 CET | From | People's Party of Rutania | To | Debating the Fireworks Act 2838 |
| Message | The PPR see no valid reason to change from the current policy. |
| Date | 20:06:38, October 26, 2009 CET | From | United Democrats | To | Debating the Fireworks Act 2838 |
| Message | We need to legislate that a professional can only run firework shows. A firework show is a large show in a public place to an audience of the public. Only professionals with the relevant training and health and safety training should be allowed to run these displays. |

| Random fact: Large scale RP planning (such as wars, regional/continental conflicts, economic collapse, etc.) should be planned (as best as it can be) and should have consent of a majority of players involved. |
| Random quote: "If democracy is ever to be threatened, it will not be by revolutionary groups burning government offices and occupying the broadcasting and newspaper offices of the world. It will come from disenchantment, cynicism and despair caused by the realization that the New World Order means we are all to be managed and not represented." - Tony Benn |
