| Message | Speaker, Once again it seems like the PP has more respect for criminals than for our normal citizens. These monsters must be swiftly dealt with: for the sake of our society and for the sake of the victims. Hugo Landa |

| Message | Mr. Landa, Your behavior is unnaceptabe. You are a disgrace for the human kind. "PP has more respect for criminals than for our normal citizens" Did you hit yourself on the head or something? It seems like the DAF is the party for the mentally challenged. No matter if the person is a criminal or a innocent citizen, his or her life is equal with the life of another person. Cease with those stupid, irrational and dumb statements. Laurent Scherzinger, Federal Chancellor. |

| Message | Mr. Landa, The only monster here is you. Loretta Baldimo, Federal Minister of Internal Affairs. |

| Message | Mr Landa, The chance that one of these people executed is innocent should turn over all of our stomachs. I'm not concerned with saving the lives of the guilty, but there is a chance that one of the executed people is innocent. That makes the death penalty impractical and dangerous, Tirza Sommer Leader of the Pragmatic Party Minister of Justice |

| Message | Speaker, I would like the CFAE to investigate the words of Mister Scherzinger and Miss Baldimo, as we find it simply unacceptable that members of this Parliament lower themselves to a level of mudthrowing without any reasons for it to be necessary. We are meant to be examples for how a citizen should act, honourable members of the KU. We agree with Miss Sommer that we cannot risk the death of innocent civilians by the hands of the Federal government, which is why we will propose that we only execute War criminals and terrorists in the future in a new bill. Hugo Landa |

| Message | Mrs. President, we would also like the CFAE to investigate words of Mr. Landa "These monsters must be swiftly dealt with: for the sake of our society and for the sake of the victims." We find it as unacceptable as Landa find our statements. You say about being an example and yet you say things like this... Funny. Laurent Scherzinger, Federal Chancellor. |

| Message | Speaker, What's wrong with calling an individual who murders dozens of OUR people in cold blood a monster? We give that person a fair trial and we must give that person a comfortable stay in a decent cell in prison and it is our duty as the state to offer these privileges, even to criminals. We can, however, ask something in return for the injustice that this person caused on our territory, and we believe that asking for someone's life is permitted in some cases of horrendous criminal activity on OUR soil against OUR people. And yes, we are exemplary citizens: We warn these criminals for the fact that they will have to pay with their lives if they don't adhere the law. Hugo Landa |

| Message | Mr. Landa, What's wrong with this? I don't see what's wrong with calling an apparently uneducated person the same way in which he calls others. Do not make me laugh with your "exemplarity". Laurent Scherzinger, Federal Chancellor. |
| Date | 14:05:37, April 26, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Allianz für Freiheit | To | Debating the Abolition of The Death Penalty Bill |
| Message | Speaker, Only now do I see that the Federal Chancellor may have incorrectly read our statement. With " Monsters ", we didn't mean the Pragmatic Party or its members. We meant the criminals who could be subject to capital punishment. Excuse me for the miscommunication. Hugo Landa |

| Message | Speaker, Besides: Mister Scherzinger, what's with the constant bashing on my party? Are we a threat or something? If you look at the votes, you can clearly see that we agree on this issue, so I don't understand why you are attacking us instead of the PP, SP or GLP. Guess it has to do with the campaigning season. We are more than happy to co-operate with you politically, but you don't give us that many opportunities to do so with your current stance. I do hope that you'll change for the better. Randolf Urquhart |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, A new threat? No, no, no, no.... I see You just as bunch of people with inconsistent agenda and no respect toward others. We agree on this issue but based entirely on different ground. You use arguments which are so contrary to the reality and my beliefs that it's impossible that a politician can say such things. Laurent Scherzinger, Federal Chancellor. |
| Date | 14:25:45, April 26, 2017 CET | From | Dorvische Allianz für Freiheit | To | Debating the Abolition of The Death Penalty Bill |
| Message | Speaker, Then what are your reasons to disagree with this act? I haven't really seen anything but insults pointed at my party's members. Randolf Urquhart |
