| Message | We do think that man made drugs, such as bathsalts and Meth, need to remain illegal because of how much damage they can cause, and the dangers of making them. We agree that drugs should be legal, however, we do feel that a line must be drawn. |
| Date | 22:07:50, December 17, 2016 CET | From | Parti de la Liberté Démocratique | To | Debating the Narcotics Liberty Act |
| Message | Man-made drugs can be much more dangerous than natural ones for a variety of reasons, and people may in many cases not be educated enough on their use to use such high-potency drugs safely. This bill is also too vague for our Party to back. It would, for instance, effectively get rid of the need of a prescription from a doctor in order to obtain certain medicines. Prescriptions exist for a reasons, and when you allow people to give themselves medicines that must be used only in very specific cases, quantities, and/or intervals, tragedy is bound to happen. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
