| Message | Mr. Speaker, Obviously there seem to be people who still have yet to learn from the past. Paramilitaries have shown their effects on Dranland over the past 50 years through FERN, the Crimson Uprising, and various communist militias. There have been assassinations and large terrorist attacks against our most major cities by these sort of groups. Yet here is a proposal to legalize these groups. This is an insult to all the people who have died and lost loved ones as a result of paramilitaries. Sun Tae-gun KDF Chair / Minister of Foreign Affairs |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Paramilitaries?! What is Mr. Maelic thinking now? Who knows what the aims of these paramilitaries will be, and how will they be regulated and controlled??? Such legislation would put thousands of Dranish citizens at risk to violence! In the past, militant groups have quickly turned on their neighbors and persecuted others, like the Draddwyr in brutal purges... does Parliament wish to repeat the mistakes of the past? Gladys Rhys-Evans (DC) Draddwyr Cynghrair Pennaeth OOC: From what I remember, there was a period of Draddwyr persecution, right? If not, then ignore. :) |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, "The Good" ought to be renamed "The Chaos" or "The Anarchy". Do they have any idea about how to govern Dranland in a stable and responsible way? Leticia Saldanas MP Leader of the Opposition OOC: Yes, Cobalt, a long time ago Dranland had the notorious Welsh/Draddywyr Genocide. See, for example: http://particracy.wikia.com/wiki/Welsh_Genocide |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, I second the question of the Majority Leader. Though if their Werin Da political ancestry is anything to go on, they probably want to kill everything that isn't Draddwyr and isn't SPC. In other words, the majority of Dranland. Alejandro Xi Marcelino KDF Vice-Chair Member for Elbian |

| Message | OOC: Maybe I should switch to calling Saldanas the "Minority Leader"? |
