| Message | We vote for this in the expectation that for the very worst category of crimes, life imprisonment really should mean life imprisonment. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, You believe those who commit treason and vast crimes against mankind should be allowed and to spew their hate onto others and create future degeneration of our society? I think not. |

| Message | It is possible to prevent criminals from spewing hate or committing misdeeds by detaining them in prison. Execution is not necessary in order to prevent future crimes taking place. In fact, we would argue state executions tend to reduce general respect for life rather than enhance it. |

| Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
