| Message | This law will make this delicious steak illegal. The URP on behalf of all meat-eating people votes no. |

| Message | We don't quite get how it would make steak illegal. We wouldn't be banning killing cows or other animal that produces meat for human consumption. At least, the law is not that specific. Though it is possible. But most importantly, steaks can be imported if need be. We still disagree with the proposals though. |

| Message | I'm unsure if the Liberals understand where steak comes from, Steak comes from cows. Cows are animals. Killing animals would mean no killing cows and no killing cows means no steak. I know the Liberals tend to "interpret" law in an insane fashion, however I don't know how something so clear can be disputed with no basis. |

| Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
