| Message | Article 1 is not taken far enough. Article 2, we consider, would be detrimental to the combat, which protects the citizens. The Freedom Party is against Article 2 of the Bill, due to the fact that it endangers the citizens and puts the nation at a higher risk of conquest. |
| Date | 18:35:38, July 09, 2016 CET | From | Greyistische Demokraten | To | Debating the The Democratic Liberal Manifesto - Part One, Military |
| Message | We agree, but it would be even better if homosexuality would be completely allowed in the military. |
