| Message | Mr. Speaker, this is insane. Why abolish these paramilitary groups while they are being heavy regulated? We have a Presidential Guard that serves as a bodyguard service for our politicians. These bodyguards are barely armed and respect the authorities. Their task is to serve and protect the leaders of the nation, obviously members of the party. Red barets are a paramilitary group within the structure of our party that offers its services to the nation, only to benefit the nation. They are also barely armed, most of them are not armed at all, and they are all very professional soldiers and police. Firmin Cafmeyer Expert on Internal Affairs for LNC |

| Message | Of course we can't build a liberal democracy with the current law, Mr. Speaker. We do not like Liberalism. We do not want it here. -- Gordon Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG, Opposition Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We are not surprised to see the extremist nationalist parties opposing this Bill, since we know they enjoy intimidating people with their private armies, but nevertheless, this reform is what Lodamun desperately needs and we will push ahead with it. Anton Rietveld Chairman of the Conservative Monarchist Alliance |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The SLP does envision a Lodamun with a fully public military and police force. We would vote yes on this bill. Rowan Argall SLP Leader |
