| Message | Mr. Speaker, Our policies had tremendous support among the general population and were very effective to deter criminal activities. Now we expect crime to increase due to your irresponsibility and your lack of respect for the hard-working Luthorians. We don't want criminal niggers in our streets, we don't want high-school dropouts. We stand for a crime-free, prosperous and strong nation, all the opposite of what the HPL wants. Jake Crawler, Chancellor of Justice |
