| Message | "Common sense infers that an armed society deters crime, as it removes the power imbalance between criminals and law-abiding citizens! The state has no place to be the sole provider of defence, a monopoly on power. We are all free men, and we are the state!" |
| Date | 00:36:11, July 18, 2019 CET | From | United Hutori Party | To | Debating the Patriot Liberation Act |
| Message | The United Hutori Party does not agree with such statement, legalising firearms for all would only cause more criminal problems, as now weapons are even more easily accessible. As for the first legislation to pass, removing the governments right to break up a crowd in s STATE OF EMERGENCY in the most utterly idiotic move a nation could make. See fit to the problems here MP's, vote NO! |
