Message | We shall oppose this bill. The millitary are responsible to the government, whereas police forces are primarily responsible to legislation. The millitary must be kept away from law enforcement to prevent the creation of a police state. |

Message | we will vote yes |
Date | 18:53:52, December 06, 2005 CET | From | Populist Liberal Party | To | Debating the Police Act |
Message | We will oppose, as the name for that is martial law. It is already law (one the PLP proposed and passed) that the military can be called in to help in serious emergencies. Furthermore, police are now armed with guns. We feel that should be sufficient. |
Date | 04:24:45, December 07, 2005 CET | From | Populist Liberal Party | To | Debating the Police Act |
Message | I see that this has been altered to a more moderate position, one that we might be able to support. |
Date | 10:57:28, December 07, 2005 CET | From | Kanjoran Socialist Party | To | Debating the Police Act |
Message | Malfico, there is nothing wrong with a police state. What is wrong with wanting Kanjor to be more secure? |
