Details
Status[?]: defeated

Voting deadline: May 3858
Description[?]:
| Currently, diplomats are exempt from prosecution for criminal acts but not from civil lawsuits, but may still be expelled because of criminal acts. However here at Choice, we believe diplomatic immunity should NOT be given. If someone if in our nation, then they MUST and WILL abide by OUR laws, they should not be put above the law. We cannot allow diplomats to get away with crimes, they must follow the same laws when in Luthori as everyone else, we are all equal. |
