Bill: Strengthening our Police Proposal of July 3280
Details
Submitted by[?]: Vereinigt Dorvik
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 3281
Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, We would like to formally put forward Vereinigt Dorvik's platform for a "tough on crime" approach to handling our nation's justice system. Extremists and criminals seek to undermine Dorvik and our citizens by taking advantage of our weak approach to policing. We understand that this bill may not pass but it will at least raise our visibility on the issue. |

| Message | The death penalty is a silly punishment, plain cells with nothing to do all day for 50 years is far more effective than just killing the person. Also the record the DNA of all citizens is a basic infringement on the privacy of Dorvish citizens. The expansion of the police departments will only cost the state more money and thus expand the government even further. We can only agree with article 3 and therefore must vote no on this bill. Chancellor of Dorvik Gustav Horch |
