| Message | Stupidity. We must be willing to use nuclear weapons at warning. If we wait to retaliate, we may all be dead before we can take the opportunity. |
| Date | 13:34:40, December 19, 2005 CET | From | Polaris Party | To | Debating the No Nukes |
| Message | I agree with the bill. Attacking with nukes, bio and/or chem weapons would do us more harm than good. Threat of retaliation is fine, at least with nukes. |

| Message | This is why international treaties are good...if we can get all nations to abolish nuclear weapons than we don't have to have the right to nuke them. |

| Message | SDE, living in a dream world, as usual. If you think every nation honours their treaties, you are a bonafide moron. Nations have nuclear weapons and we should too. Voluntarily making yourself militarily inferior leads to invasion and control by imperialist puppetmasters. |

| Message | We reserve the rifgt to retaliate with nukes through this bill, not completely abolishing them. And how good do you think a nation would be in the eyes of the international community if we simply fired nukes? No nation would trust us, and we might be facing wars on several fronts. |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
