| Message | No to article 2 and 4. Don't like article 1 but would let it go through with article 3. |
| Date | 14:18:03, April 19, 2006 CET | From | We Say So! Party | To | Debating the Living for the bigger purpose bill (aka morality bill) |
| Message | No. The only point we may consider is article 3, but we couldn't support the others on any grounds. |
| Date | 16:37:46, April 19, 2006 CET | From | Union Party | To | Debating the Living for the bigger purpose bill (aka morality bill) |
| Message | The Union party can not in any way accept any of these articles, thus it is a very obvious conclusion that we will be voting no on this bill independant of any finagling as long as the articles present are included. We might be bloody red economically, but we believe strongly in liberty for one's personal behavior. Is it any wonder that half our seats are held by weirdos, some with amazingly funny hats and or walks? |
| Date | 18:38:41, April 19, 2006 CET | From | National Imperial Hobrazian Front | To | Debating the Living for the bigger purpose bill (aka morality bill) |
| Message | No to all, with the possible exception of 3 (if a less extreme option was taken). It is not the government's place to legislate morality. That can only come from within. |
