| Message | Mr Speaker, This is simple really, no guns means less gun murders. If we properly police our airports and borders, then we can rid this nation of guns. I don't think this will stop people from trying to kill, but it'll mean they can't kill from a distance. If you want to kill someone, you can no longer simply shoot them, you must chase after them. You could be stopped or outrun. As for the police, do they need guns? If you can't get guns, you don't need guns to fight against them. The police should be better equipped to de-escalate situations, not kill criminals. Guns cause death, they are battlefield weapons. Any weapons in Luthori must be owned by the military, and only given as tools to soldiers. Guns don't protect people, they kill people. Robert Achilles Unity MP |

| Random quote: "The European Union and environmental advocacy groups use global warming hysteria to advance their own special agendas. The European Union recognizes any significant reduction in CO2 emissions by the United States will significantly reduce its economic output, thereby bringing it closer to the inferior output of European nations. Environmental advocacy groups work to stifle economic and industrial progress wherever they find it to inhibit the successful advancement of peoples in developing nations, inevitably making mankind a second class citizen of planet Earth." - Dr. Jay Lehr |
