| Message | The KRF reveals itself to be a racist, fascist Party. The SP calls on all reasonable Parties to put that nonsense back under the rock from whence it slithered. |
| Date | 04:54:14, September 27, 2018 CET | From | Libertarian Capitalist Party (LCP) | To | Debating the Powerful Police Act of 4460 |
| Message | While police are here to protect its citizens, and should indeed be armed, they should not have access to an arsenal such as this. Not to mention the unlawful entering of homes and property. |
| Date | 06:38:41, September 27, 2018 CET | From | Socialist Party of Kalistan (SPoK) | To | Debating the Powerful Police Act of 4460 |
| Message | The Police most definitely should NOT carry military weaponry. That weaponry is for the Military. The police are here to serve, not to oppress. |
| Date | 13:48:31, September 27, 2018 CET | From | National Conservative Party | To | Debating the Powerful Police Act of 4460 |
| Message | We agree completely with our SPoK and LP comrades. This bill would infringe upon the rights and freedoms of the Kalistani people. No government other than communist and fascist regimes need these policies. |
| Date | 18:16:29, September 27, 2018 CET | From | Kalistan First | To | Debating the Powerful Police Act of 4460 |
| Message | There is a.reason why this party has reformed, and it is because there are a clear group of people who understand that this nation's parties do not care. This nation's parties do not care about if a criminal can have dangerous weapon and have to go through a lengthy process. This nation's parties do not care if the police in Kalistan need to take actions to safe lives that they are restricted to rules. This nation's parties do not care if our police have the resources to take out a dangerous asset. It's sickening and dangerous that only 4 people in this body believe in those principals. |
| Date | 20:29:48, September 27, 2018 CET | From | Reform Party | To | Debating the Powerful Police Act of 4460 |
| Message | I'm afraid that this bill goes too far to trample on civil liberties to warrant our support. |
| Date | 02:00:54, September 28, 2018 CET | From | National Conservative Party | To | Debating the Powerful Police Act of 4460 |
| Message | It's sickening and dangerous that any man or woman in the Chamber of Deputies believes it's necessary to give anyone to search our people and their properties without just cause and to also give the searchers military grade weapons to carry out their potential misdeeds. |
