| Message | We understand the concern from the National Union for Farmers and Laborers but, at the same time, we consider it extremist. Thousands of threatens are over there and if we totally ban the government to use all this potential we will be more exposed to foreign interventionism. As said, the SDC proposes to restrict the use of these weapons just in response of other nations attack. Then, we will be able to build a strong socialist nation without fearing other nations might. Beau Hibbert Candidate of the Head of Government Social-Democratic Coalition OOC: Sorry of my bad English, it's not my native language. I promise I'll do my best to improve it :) |
