| Message | Mr Speaker, We strongly support article 1 and could support article 2 since it is coupled with article 1. I yield. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, I highly discourage this bill. The military is supposed to defend our country, not be a bunch of cops giving people speed tickets. Its a waste of government money. I yield. |
| Date | 18:02:35, June 21, 2010 CET | From | Constitutionalist Imperial League (IA) | To | Debating the Strengthing the Leviathan 2 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, While we do believe the military should have powers of arrest, we agree that they have more pressing duties and will support a repeal of article 2 if it only seeks to repeal that portion of the bill and maintains the military's powers of arrest. I yield. |
