Message"Uhh... we're somewhat in doubt about article 1. We agree that sending someone to jail for having an extramarital affair is a very disproportional punition, but, since adultery may cause a lot of suffering on the cheated partner, and since an unhappy marriage can be undone through divorce, we think that at least the permission to sue the cheater should be in the laws. We also think that some regulations on drugs, tobacco, alcohol etc. should be enforced, at least to avoid the excess. Also, we don't think that allowing someone to have dangerous animals, specially those from endangered species.

We'll not vote agains this law, but it's very hard to say 'yes' to articles 1-3. However, he're in full agreement with article 4, so we think that it's better to abstain at this time."

Random fact: Any RP law granting extraordinary "emergency powers" or dictator-like powers to a government must be passed by at least a 2/3rds majority, but (like all RP laws) may always be overturned by a simple majority vote of the legislature.
