Description[?]:
Mr. Speaker, The national sport have fluctuated over the years. However, a sport such as "football" is simply too generic and dull to represent our country's traditions. I propose enshrining the ancient sport of Match crossbow as our national sport, to promote a healthy lifestyle with exercise. I am open to other suggestions. Thea Melodia Atabeg of the Hawks |

Message | Mr Speaker, What is healthy about the crossbow? Unlike the longbow is requires no physical prowess. It would be like claiming pistol shooting or dart throwing were healthy sports. A national sport should require some physical exertion, preferably requiring well honed expertise. A national sport should also be a team sport. |

Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
Random quote: "In Germany they first came for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller |
