| Message | POLICE STATE! We cannot decend into a wild west nation with people blasting each other left, right and centre, with the police going around shoooting innocent people for looking at them funny! The police carrying non-lethal weapons ensure the safety of the police officers and the safety of civilians! In the sitution you discribe the aSPECIALIST ARMED POLICE UNIT would be called. Look at Britain for an exam of a non-lethal police force with an armed unit. Besides most Darnussian citerzens do not own guns since it is illegal, some criminals might get them from the black market, but that is why we have a speical armed unit..... |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
