| Message | Mr Speaker We've had.... quite a lot of trouble with paramilitaries the last years... Perhaps we'll support it in the future. But not now. I yield. Denice Rittenhouse Parliamentary Group Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This is quite surprising coming from the LA, a party which retains an honor guard regardless of what the law on paramilitaries is. If they reserve the right to retain an honor guard I see no reason why the rest of the parties cannot do the same. I yield David Sveikart HSP Chairman |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The Communist threat is always lurking in the shadows and ready to strike at any given moment. Are we truly ready to accept paramilitaries back into the fold? Also, regarding the comment about LA's honour guard...This is quite troubling indeed and very illegal. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, If this bill does not pass I will still authorize the remobilization of the HSP's 'honor guard.' Allowing for one party to have a de facto paramilitary disadvantages the rest. I yield David Sveikart HSP Chairman Minister of Education and Culture |

| Message | Mr Speaker, If the Hosian Socialist Party goes through with this it would be a matter left to law enforcement and the potential end go the HSP. I don't think threatening parties into voting with them is the way to go. We will be removing support for this bill. Thank you, David Smith CUP Leader |
| Date | 03:13:07, February 18, 2016 CET | From | Hosian Socialist Party | To | Debating the Paramilitary Bill |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Since the Parties in this government have voted against legalising paramilitaries but have failed to take action against the Liberal Alliance for retaining their honor guard we have no choice but to deal with this on our own terms! I yield David Sviekart HSP Chairman Education and Culture Minister |

| Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
| Random quote: "If democracy is ever to be threatened, it will not be by revolutionary groups burning government offices and occupying the broadcasting and newspaper offices of the world. It will come from disenchantment, cynicism and despair caused by the realization that the New World Order means we are all to be managed and not represented." - Tony Benn |
