| Message | Herr Präsident, as long as the state does not overstep its mandate of protecting physical and psychical integrity of citizens as well as their private property with regards to domestic security, we do not think that the current policies create a a "restrictive and unhealthy society". Repression of criminality, after all, enhances the freedom of the citizens. Thomas Gollhammer, MdR LVP-Mitrania Sicherheitssprecher der Liberalen |

| Message | In combination with voting yes to paramilitaries, this illustrates the madness and incoherence of the WAP which renders them unfit for government. |
