| Message | ...I'm not even going to comment on the DPA's second statement. Isn't this a party that voted against a bill because it would limit freedom? And isn't this a bill that proposes to remove a limit on freedom? Hmm.... |

| Message | Ah yes, here's what the DPA said about placing regulations on advertising: "Article 1:Freedom of Advertising is restricted and it is against liberties of Alorians" Isn't limiting freedom of political expression against the liberties of Alorians as well? |
