| Message | Disagree with article 4 and 3. We cannot see how removing legalsation on stopping discrimination in the military is fighting for freedom, if anything it is damanging freedom, the freedom of people who want to serve in a military, a government organisation, from serving in it. As for article 3, we feel 12 is way too young for someone to be legally seen as an adult, they are not mature enough. |

| Message | Don't mix that many different kind of proposals into one bill, it really fucks our visibility up. |
