| Message | "Mr. Speaker" "Do you understand why we call this hate? First of all if people I hate said 'I want to die for you' I'd grab the popcorn, instead of saying no you can't. If you're about to give the 'temptation' argument then you should try to ban women from serving too. As well may I ask that you stop being so blind and evil, do you understand that our rights is what we hold close to us." "I yield" Elizabeth Genn Leader of the LPU |

| Message | Mr Speaker I do not hate the homosexuals. This is about the morale of the military and order. This is not a hateful bill but rather a bill that will give order back to the military. I am honestly take offense by Elizabeths outrageous comments. She is the leader of a party that gas proven they are undemocratic and want to overthrow our democracy. Yet I'm evil?

| Message | Mr Speaker Greetings from The People's Republic of Hobrazia, I highly believe the bill would bring sanity and discipline into the military. If this bill passes as it has across the border in our country,we can decide to form a joint force to protect our region and work together towards economic,social and political intergration.

| Message | Mr Speaker, This is the most vile, disgusting, pathetic, bigoted excuse of a bill I think could ever exist! Someone who wishes to put their life on the line for their country should not be told something beyond their control is immoral and wrong! How is homosexual activity more disruptive than heterosexual activity in the military? I don't think that sex on duty should be allowed, of course, but saying homosexuals are barred from serving for their country is so disgusting I will never dare to even talk to any party that votes for this again!

| Message | Mr Speaker, If anything this bill brings for more equality in the military. We need this. When my nation is under threat i want a well organised military to defend it. Not just some couple who were brought together during conscription. |
