Message | We will support this act, although we would have prefered the nuclear option left alone, we agree with all the other articles. |
Date | 19:17:43, October 30, 2005 CET | From | Action Française | To | Debating the Reform Bill |
Message | We are a tad disturbed by the perverse nature of the Centrists. We feel that it is wrong that a child may walk into a park and see several men have group anal sex by the swings, that cannot be right, sex is a private affair, not something for the public to witness. |
Date | 19:22:11, October 30, 2005 CET | From | Malfico Progressive Fascist Party | To | Debating the Reform Bill |
Message | Are you suggesting there is something wrong with group anal sex by the swings? |
Date | 22:11:00, October 30, 2005 CET | From | Party of Kanjor | To | Debating the Reform Bill |
Message | It's only a seen as a private affair by restrictive people such as your party. We feel the people should be allowed to do what they like, as long as it doesn't harm another person. Also, why use group anal sex as an example? Are you against homosexuals? |
