Message | This bill is statism at its best! The promotion of Blue Coalition interests through legislation? That is ridiculous. Never has the Karav dynasty done such a thing. If you even want to bring up our stance on religion, that is pointless because if it wasn't for us, religious schools would still be banned. We were the ones who made those legal, even though we opposed the existence of religious schools, we saw that many others had different views and we respected that. The existence, of religious schools, would do us no harm anyways; I'm not sure why the Tories wanted them to be illegal. I have something to say to Leto: If you don't want to have an abortion, no-one is forcing you to have one. This "general freedoms" bill is ridiculous. It limits freedom much more than it can even be twisted to promote it. Article 1: You are actually taking away freedom from our citizens, limiting their choices to what the government allows in special cases only. Article 2: That, again, is not freedom. Beluzia will lose its place in the international community. We will no longer be seen as neutral, but instead, hostile to everyone. There are different forms of isolationism. We should still allow everyone to call Beluzia "home" if they need to. Article 5: You may look to ugly to do it, but why kill the fun for everyone else? Plus, in some cases they don't even need to be nude. You'll barely notice unless your a Blue coalition statist police officer. |
