| Message | Mr. Speaker, While we agree with Article 1, we will not support this action. We believe adoption should not be limited to just only couples. Anyone who has the time, resources and willingness to raise a child should be allowed that opportunity. Jonathon J. Carson Deputy Chairman of the Civic Party of Hutori MP for Thorne and Altar |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
