| Message | Mr. Speaker, We support Articles 1, 8 and 18, but we cannot support the other measures. Perhaps the 4 Mai Jalalistischen Revolutionäre would be better served by proposing another bill with those measures separately. |
| Date | 02:54:13, August 14, 2013 CET | From | Faschische Allianz aus Dorvik | To | Debating the Unser Kampf Hat Begonnen-Our Struggle has Begun! |
| Message | Mr. Minister-president, I believe that this entire bill is but a farce to distract us from the real problems of Dorvik: The COMMUNISTIC THREAT! They claim to be in favor of democracy, but are arming themselves as they speak! Do not tolerate these traitors, nor their bills! |
