| Message | The Karav family recalls the Adamsons using terms related to "tyranny" and "police state" to describe the current administration. There is no need for any invasive security check. Our only concern, before giving anyone a passport, is that the individual isn't someone who committed a crime, and is leaving to avoid trial or responsibilities. We think every citizen has the right to travel outside of Beluzia, and even leave for permanent residence. As long as the reason isn't something that relates to breaking the law, we have no problem with it. There doesn't need to be any "invasive" security checks. We can put heavy regulation on persons entering, but it is quite ridiculous to put regulations on those who want to leave. |
