| Message | We feel that the public does not to own firearms, and they pose a serious threat to the population. They are designed to kill, no ordinary person needs such a thing. People are irrational, cruel, easily panicked, sometimes stupid and angry, not the kind of people who should be armed. I feel it will be very hard to get this bill passed but I must try. |

| Message | Wow, never thought i'd get any support at all on this bill. Unfortunately BFP we are not willing to compromise on bill, we will propose it as it stands, if it fails it fails, but thank you for trying to negoitate instead of outrightly dismissing it. |

| Message | Opposed. People should have the opportunity to defend their property. To the BLP that is a basic civil right. We do believe though the current law should be changed to " Individuals are allowed to own firearms as long as they do not have a history of dangerous mental illness or a violent criminality ". |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
