Description[?]:
| Can we, as a nation, as a people, truly adhere to these medieval forms of keeping our population in check.

We must have liberty in our time. - Martin Tipps SPU President |

| Message | To expand on our above statement, Madam Speaker, we believe that Articles I and Articles III should give full assurance to the individual over their civil liberties. This proposal contains conditions, which we believe should not be there. Madam Speaker, Article II we cannot support for we believe that intercourse should be fully consented to by all parties. The consent of an animal cannot be determined and so we oppose bestiality. Madam Speaker, we shall, however support this bill as a step in the right direction. |

| Random quote: "The European Union and environmental advocacy groups use global warming hysteria to advance their own special agendas. The European Union recognizes any significant reduction in CO2 emissions by the United States will significantly reduce its economic output, thereby bringing it closer to the inferior output of European nations. Environmental advocacy groups work to stifle economic and industrial progress wherever they find it to inhibit the successful advancement of peoples in developing nations, inevitably making mankind a second class citizen of planet Earth." - Dr. Jay Lehr |
