Bill: Methods for combatting the separatists in Elbian
Details
Submitted by[?]: Plaid Draddwyr
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 2840
Description[?]:
Curfews must be put in place in order to ease the ability of the police and armed forces to control the streets. Torture is a necessary evil in the fight against the scum who attack our nation. Only those professionally required to own fire arms shall be allowed too. This limits ownership to the police and armed forces, plus recognised pro-government paramilitaries. |

Random quote: On 7th February 4281 a group of renowned Metzist experts from all across Terra met in Haldor to form the International Committee for the Estimation of the End Date of Capitalism (ICEEDC). With the assistance of a powerful computer, they calculated that capitalism will terminate Terra-wide on 6th November 4320, and in Dorvik on April 17th 4310. We have no reason whatsoever to believe these very eminent and learned scholars are wrong. They have never been wrong about anything before. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
