| Message | restrictions restrictions restrictions and more laws that government will have to waste money creating. Focus it on preventing murders, not persecuting a minority. Furthermore, the current devolution of the marraige policy is a compromise to all the more backwards regions to dehumanise who they want in this regard without affecting the more liberal regions. |
