| Message | This does not have our support. Flag burning is a legitimate and forcefull way to protest, and we cant ban that. Not if you truely believe in the freedom of speech. -Grace S. Lough Speaker of the United Liberal Caucus |

| Message | We believe in freedom of speech but there isn't an excuse for dishonoring your nation's flag. If you don't like your nation then leave. |

| Message | That is a false position and you know it. Politics and and protests are all about changing what is wrong with the nation. Progressives stand forward progress. What if conservates said that same phrase? "If you don't like your nation then leave." -Grace S. Lough Speaker of the United Liberal Caucus |
| Date | 06:31:31, September 23, 2011 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the Respecting the Flag of Solentia. |
| Message | The Liberals are correct. If you love your country, you embrace what is great about it, but you work like hell to change the things that are wrong. Dissent is a very effective tool at driving the march of progress. As far as this bill is concerned, we believe the practical realities of banning a large degree of actions, speech and activity is both wrong and unenforceable. |
