| Message | No thanks. If our citizens must be forced to defend their homeland, then we have no legitimacy and deserve to fail. The LSP does not support invasions of other countries without just cause. Having a voluntary military means that the people themselves can show whether or not they support an offensive war also. |

| Message | No, no, no,no. It gives all of our citizens to become a part-time miltia with after joining the military or national guard. This will give us the advanage if another country attacks us. We have no intention of using this miltia to attack other countries. This will give a limited full-time military and a citizens' militia that is called in times of need, like the Swiss. |
