Bill: The Strangelove Project
Details
Submitted by[?]: Sect of the Green Moon
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2172
Description[?]:
| A Ultivac will be built at a underground location, it shall be capable of working, even if 75% of components fail. It shall have a backup system that will be activated when 50% of the first system's components fail. Another backup system shall be put under that, thus making the system capable of lasting more than several decades. It will have backup power systems that can provide power for a day, and cannot be disconnected from the national power grid. This reliable computer system shall be used national defense, it will have 20 substations, each controlling a missile launch site. A vacuum tube computer will not be effected by EMP caused by a nuclear explosion, and it shall be in radio contact of all the substations and if that radio contact is broken, nuclear missiles shall be launched at current enemy targets. The system can NEVER be deactivated, however there will be a big red activation button labelled 'DEACTIVATE KAFURISTAN NUCLEAR DEFENSE, DO NOT PRESS' that will activate nuclear missiles at enemy contries. There will be three people working 8 hour shifts inputting a code (each one knows a differnet one) at a secondary terminal every hour to protect against accidental power failures and other possiblities. Only when the code is stopped inputted and a nuclear explosion has occured in Kafuristan, then missiles shall be launched. This will be a effective defence against a enemy, if they were to activate a nuclear device in Kafuristan, they shall pay. We also shall build a Cobalt-Thorium-G missile that will wipe an entire country's ecosystem and make it so radioactive, it will be uninhabitable by multicelluar life for at least fifty years. There shall also be ten people who live in a isolated area where they maintain the system and they all will be able to program differnet targets and they shall imput a code at least once every three days as a auxiliary just in case. We shall also have bombers that will fly over international waters refiilling at aircraft carriers on the way armed with a warhead that could destroy an entire city. Trusted generals shall also input a three letter code to prevent accidents when the system get's activated for a nuclear accident for example. This shall discourage nuclear agression against Kafuristan, if total nuclear wipeout were to create collapse of Kafuristani society or create a situation similiar. Or worse, a commie hippie invasion armed with flowers. RED FLOWERS. |

| Message | Shouldn't there be a bright red Activation button? |
| Date | 01:14:26, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Sect of the Green Moon | To | Debating the The Strangelove Project |
| Message | The deactivation button is the activation button, just in case a team of covert Deltarians break in, try to deactivate it and then escape, with Deltarian missiles heading toward us. |

| Message | I don't see what's so bad with biological and chemical weapons. Besides, I like red flowers. Let us plant them throughout Pabeus! |
| Date | 03:48:26, January 15, 2006 CET | From | Sect of the Green Moon | To | Debating the The Strangelove Project |
| Message | Biological and Chemical weapons are considered a form of torture as they are painful and create a slow and painful death. Pabeus is a desolate wasteland full of sand with temperatures aproaching 120F in the summer. And besides Red Flowers produce a chemical known as Marxite which kills the Green Garouda tree (a tree that absorbs all the nutrients and prevents smaller plants from getting a equal share of water), which is our party's main tree. |

| Message | Marxite is a very useful agricultural chemical for getting rid of those green Garouda weeds, therefore producing more equal crops. Also, biological and chemical weapons aren't slow if you use the right ones. Being hit with a bullet and bleeding to death is uglier. Imagine if your home province banned pesticide use, forcing local farmers to sit on their porch shooting at grasshoppers. |
| Date | 06:05:13, January 16, 2006 CET | From | Sect of the Green Moon | To | Debating the The Strangelove Project |
| Message | If you shoot in the right way, there is no bleeding to death, you already are. |
