| Date | 03:02:36, December 06, 2013 CET | From |  Great National Republican Guard | To | Debating the Illegalizing of sodomy |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We have nothing against sodomy, or homosexuals. Our support of this bill goes along with the intention to increase Lodamun's population growth. Even for heterosexual couples, sex shouldn't be for fun. Sex should be for reproduction, so that our nation can grow. After a while, we plan to ease these laws -- Paul Fertig, Chairman of the NRG, President of Lodamun |
| Date | 03:22:00, December 06, 2013 CET | From | Lions Party | To | Debating the Illegalizing of sodomy |
| Message | Homosexuality should remain illegal and fines must be imposed for those who engage in homosexual acts . Sex should not only be about increasing the population. No one should try to limit sexual activity to only procreation. |
| Date | 03:25:11, December 06, 2013 CET | From | Lions Party | To | Debating the Illegalizing of sodomy |
| Message | If this proposal is not changed so as to allow heterosexual couples to have sex when they want the Lions Party will not support this proposal. Homosexuality should not only remain illegal, homosexuals should be jailed for corrupting the values of the society. |
| Date | 03:34:39, December 06, 2013 CET | From | Great National Republican Guard | To | Debating the Illegalizing of sodomy |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, The values, of this society, are accepting of homosexuality. The NRG has only taken recent pro-heterosexual stances in interests of increasing the population. -- Paul Fertig, Chairman of the NRG, President of Lodamun |
| Date | 15:58:23, December 08, 2013 CET | From | Liberal Party of Lodamun | To | Debating the Illegalizing of sodomy |
| Message | Lack of sex can have adverse effects on ones's mind and behaviour, if you take away this right of the people to have sex for pleasure then I'm sure you'll be making enemies out of the nation's people, also how can you ban contraceptives, you do know that condoms lie within that category and also serves another purpose which is to stop the spread of sexual diseases and infections, if you take away the right to have sex for pleasure it will still happen behind closed doors or secluded places so at least let contraceptives or more specifically condoms, be there to protect the people |
| Date | 16:27:49, December 08, 2013 CET | From | Great National Republican Guard | To | Debating the Illegalizing of sodomy |
| Message | Contraceptives don't stop diseases from spreading. Contraception is for prevention of conception (pregnancy/birth). If someone has a sexual disease, he/she shouldn't be having sex. We need our population to grow. -- Paul Fertig, Chairman of the NRG, Trade/Industry Minister of Lodamun Vice President of Lodamun |
