| Message | Mr. Speaker We are on a dangerous path to serfdom, the newly proposed bill is just as awful as the current law on the issue of issue of segregation, they are both tyrannical on the basis of violation of individual rights. Yes, segregation in public amenities is wrong, all our taxpayers deserve public goods equally, but two wrongs don’t make a right, in a genuine free society, private institutions are free to choose who their customers are. My party will not support this reform unless the bill allows segregation in private institutions. Thanks Biggus Diccus |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
