Message | No way. All of these either infringe on human rights or require more government funding. The right to play with fireworks, the right to street-gamble freely, the right to watch obscene film on TV, the right to sell tobacco without a license, the right to use drugs anywhere in the nation and the right to keep dangerous animals are all at stake here. |

Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
