| Message | We can't believe libertarian have just voted to our bill, how can they disagree when you have reasonnable grounds to believe a crime has been committed, like a murder, that the police should not be able to search property, especially if they don't have time to ask for a warrent, military is all important for them, but not the police.... |

| Message | We do not trust all members of any organization, including the police, to share our definition of reasonable. Imminent danger is a more easily provable standard. |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
