Message | The DRP believe that the current use of the military as a police force is gross waste of resources and we will back the HCF's proposal for a civilian police force. |
Date | 12:20:13, October 28, 2010 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Police powers |
Message | Mr Speaker, this reform is one that will see the current law and order in Hutori disentigrate. A civilian police force will be unable to control crime as the Hutorian military could. I hope the HCF realise that they are single-handedly going to bring mass crime back to Hutori. |
