| Message | 1) Since certain things are regulated with identification, these cards will be a certifiable identification tool for purchases such as cigarettes or alcohol. 4) We must have some definition of nationality unless we want to be blamed for the home of terrorists since they claim to be Malivians... |

| Message | What terrorists? If they commit a crime are we going to shelter them or turn them in? We would hope that we will not harbor criminals in Malivia. |

| Message | Except according to the law that is exactly what it means. Claiming nationality means having it. IE: I claim I am a citizen of the Federation and the law says that I am. With the new law, only those born here or to nationals receive nationality. The "Protectorates" are again naive in world affairs. Did they not witness the very riots that killed over 400 Federation citizens in the name of "God"? While these may have been citizens, it still shows even at home we have enemies. What stops a terrorist that is really from Deltaria from claiming Federation nationality? Nothing. Stop terrorism, vote yes. |
