| Message | Oppose, this discriminates against animals applying for jobs and working conditions in Davostan because they're animals. |

| Message | Oppose |
| Date | 02:30:35, January 18, 2016 CET | From | Call of the Republic | To | Debating the Animal Testing Regulation Act 3968 |
| Message | Clearly the DPP has run out of excuses for its immoral positions. |
| Date | 09:52:05, January 18, 2016 CET | From | Liberal Party of Davostan | To | Debating the Animal Testing Regulation Act 3968 |
| Message | Clearly the Call of the Republic has no warrant to allow animals to freely work in our great nation, as if they want a purely Terran, purely Davostani nation. One that animals are forced into areas they don't belong and forced to belong in a society not of their own. Now imagine replacing the word animals with Davostanis, would you like that scenario? |

| Message | These "arguments" of the DPP are so ridiculous that we have to question our collegue's intelligence. |
| Date | 21:01:12, January 19, 2016 CET | From | Liberal Party of Davostan | To | Debating the Animal Testing Regulation Act 3968 |
| Message | Instead of calling me an idiot, try actually fighting them. |
| Date | 08:03:23, January 20, 2016 CET | From | Woodsman Party | To | Debating the Animal Testing Regulation Act 3968 |
| Message | One can't argue against nonsense. But I will make an attempt. Animals don't apply for jobs. The equivalent of animal testing in the human world would be slavery, not employment. |
