| Message | We are completely against this proposal. Such laws would allow another massacre similar to the one staged by the Blue Coalition close to the end of their regime's collapse. The government suppressed peaceful protests in rural areas, without any good reason in our opinion. It was purely political and if it wasn't for the existence of the current laws, our loyalists would have been helpless. Especially now, with over 70% of paramilitaries under direct Astredies control, this would be a bad idea. |
